Makeup Savvy 15 Day Nail Challenge Day 8: Leopard

Hi!

Welcome to Day 8: Leopard Day.

I love the look of leopard print nails but I've never been too great at doing them. Last week I wanted to wear them to the zoo but I completely forgot that you had to dot a contrasting colour on for the spots and was wondering why the heck my leopard print looked suspiciously like black squiggles. Despite the sporadic downpours (the wettest day of the week, typical),  I got some really nice pictures at the zoo, and this is the first time I've gotten to use one as nail inspiration. Here's the beautiful Snow Leopard.

For this look, I used the following polishes:

L-R: Essence Colour &Go 'Rich and Pretty', Essence 'Matt Top Coat', Catrice 'ASHley', Nicole by OPI 'It's All About The Glam', and Flormar '391' (I call it Coal Miner's Daughter. Just... because).

Two coats of 'ASHley', a few blobs of 'It's All About The Glam', with a couple of blobs of 'Rich and Pretty' and outlines done in 'Coal Miner's Daughter' - '391'. Whack a matte topcoat over the top and it looks like this:

When I was doing this, I cracked my index fingernail so badly. It's split right down at the butt, but I managed to keep it in place for the time being. I really hope it holds up until the end of this challenge!

Who wants some more animal spam?

All the animal pictures were taken at Dublin Zoo. You can find more information about it at www.dublinzoo.ie
