I hope you all are having a great week. Thank you for checking out my latest video on glitter
cheetah print nails. These nails are based on my favorite notebook
that I made over the summer.
I will be using nail polish strips and the LED gel kit that The super sweet folks at
Incoco sent for NAILgasmTV
You want to start with clean nails that are free of oil and debris.
Applying nail wraps and nail polish strips can be tricky. The easiest method I found
is to place your finger on a flat surface and place the strip onto your nail. Then using
your fingers, gently press the polish strip onto the nail, smoothing out any air bubbles
that may have formed.
File away any excess polish strip
Repeat for the rest of your nails
Do you have another method for applying polish strips? I'd love to know. Tell me about it
in the comments below.
For your cheetah print, I find it's easiest to use black acrylic paint as it dries faster.
I'm using a size zero paint brush that I got from my local craft store. Use whatever brush
you like.
Next I'm going to place a small dab of paint onto my aluminum foil palette
There are a million ways to paint leopard print so do what works best for you. I find
that it helps if you have a pattern to look at for reference while you paint.
Once your leopard print spots are dry to the touch apply your gel top coat and cure. It
is very important that your paint is dry otherwise it will smear when you apply top coat and
ruin your hard work.
That's it, you now have glittery gold leopard nails. Congratulations on your design.
This is a quick manicure that should last several days with the gel top coat.
Thank you so much for watching. Have
a wonderful week
