Easy Leopard Print

Hello happy painters! Today I want to show you how I do leopard print nails. This design can be used with any colors but I decided to use Pure Ice "Jaguar" as the base coat and Pure Ice "Feelin hot" for the leopard spots.





paint 4-5 spots! (sorry you can barely see pink)

Outline pink with Black art pen. C-shapes, U-shapes, and O-shapes to create leopard print. Add Seche Vite top coat!

And there you have it!! Easy Leopard print nails!! Try it and get creative with your colors.  As always HAPPY PAINTING!

What's are some of your fave brands?

Hello nail polish lovers! I consider myself fairly new to the nail polish world and I started by buying whatever cost the least.  Now I look for quality of brush and I check to see if the polish is really thick or clunky.  I'm sure there are other important things to check for but I am not aware just yet. Not to down any brands but I find that "Spoiled" has some of the worst brushes.  I have yet to purchase "O.P.I" but from what I hear they are the best brand.  What do you think and what are some of your favorite brands?  Thanks and Happy painting!

Greetings Nail polish lovers

Hello nail polish lovers!
I want to talk about a few brands I have purchased. I like Wet n' Wild Megalast line because they have an awesome manicure brush plus + they actually hold up chip free for a long time. I wear gloves at work and my hands get pretty moist inside and this polish still last. And even better its only $1.99 at CVS.


I recently purchased a few "Sinful Colors" and I will say that this brand doesn't always have the look that the bottle presents but the colors are very nice. Not sure how long it last just yet but I will keep you posted. They are sold at Walgreens for $1.99. I did notice that you have to polish fast with this brand because it gets a little clunky but it could just be the color I painted with (Love Nails 282).
Love Nails 282

Another fave brand is Sally Hansen Extreme Wear. The colors do last and depending on tone, take more than 2 coats to get true color. I believe these are $2.99 at CVS.

That's all for now!
Happy painting!!!!!!nnnn!111
