Animal Print series: Tiger nails




Hey ladies! So my last post was Giraffe nails and I wanted to stick to the Animal Print theme for a little while before I'm tired of it.
At first my next animal print was going to be snow leopard but it did not turn out good.. The silver I used for the leopard print did not show up very well against the white base and.. yeah it was not pretty.

I never done tiger nails before but I think this turned out pretty cool. Some of the stamping messed up on the tiger stripes but its okay.. I did not want to take it off to start over.



 So what I did was a gradient background color so it would look like a true tiger body and then I added the stripe to it.

Steps:

  1. I first applied China glaze- Breakin as an over base coat 
  2.  I then sponge on the tips to the middle of my nail with China glaze-Solar power
  3. Lastly I use Wet and Wild- sunny side up to blend in the two colors by sponging it in the middle up to the china glaze- breakin
  4. Then I use my Stamp from konad and stamped on the tiger stripes
  5. Out the door top coat








I hope you guys enjoy this look!


XoXo,

Amanda N
