Hi everyone, happy Wednesday! This week I finally decided to do some nail art and the obvious choice here was the leopard prints. As a base I used my yesterday’s OPI Pedal Faster Suzi! mani.
For these I used Oumax acrylic paints. I took some dark purple and mixed in white to make the lilac color. Then I used a thin nail art brush to paint on the spots. I didn’t want to cover the whole nail cos I felt it might have been too much with these colors. After the lilac part was done I did the black parts. I let those dry for a bit too and then added some Sally Hansen Strobe Light holographic glitter over the lilac parts for extra sparkle. Waited for a little longer and then added the top coat.
I actually really liked how these turned out. The colors looked nice and appropriate for spring time too :)
Please go visit all the other ladies on this challenge and see what kind of awesome things they have done this week! Thanks for reading!
That looks fantabulous! Sexy but sweet ^^

Super awesome! Love the colors you chose, and the holo glitter on top is perfect!
Thanks Ketlyn :)) I tend to add glitter to everything at the moment LOL Life is too boring without some glitter :P
Super pretty and delicate leopard print! :)
BTW, Pedal Faster Suzi is amazing! I'm not a huge fan of pinks but… God, this is gorgeous!
Thanks Cristina :) It really is a pretty pink, a little on the sheer side but the end result is totally worth it.
So pretty, love the colors that you used!

I have to agree with you, everyone did such a great job this week. It's an amazing group of ladies we have here ♥♥♥
Loving the leopard prints! Good call on not going over your whole nail with them, I like the way your spots meander over your nail. And the color combo is fantastic!
Thank you Natalie :))
Beautiful!! Acrylic paint makes leopard so much easier and I find I have more control over the small spots!
Thanks Nicole :) It really is easier to do detailed things with a fine brush and acrylic paints.
I am loving the leopard manis today! Yours is so bright and springy – love!!!!! ANd I love how you didn't cover the entire nail. It really makes the base color pop while the leopard still stands out. Rawr!
Thanks Kimber! :)
I love it!!! I did a leopard mani too, but I like how creative you got!!
