Pastel leopard print and cool ombre effect!

Hello readers!

I've got some leopard print nails to share with you today, and an experiment that turned out really great!

Today's design was requested by someone who contacted me through facebook, and she requested anything pastel. I decided to go with some sweet and girly leopard print and a twist on the average ombre nails. The ombre nails came out absolutely amazing in person, the pictures really don't do them justice! I started with a white base, and got pastel purple, blue, and pink acrylic paint. I sponged it on like I normally would, except I added much more acrylic paint (so that it almost created that pooling puddle looking effect that's usually a bad thing!) and then I got another clean sponge and sponged where the colors connect, removing some of the paint and sponged around the entire nail very lightly removing very little of the paint. The result ended up looking like some awesome clouds, and I topped it all with China Glaze Fairy Dust to add some extra sparkle and fantasy.

Lazy nails!

Hello readers! So a quick post today before I get on to reviewing some Essie Polish. I was really lazy and decided to keep the rhinestone accent nail I had in the previous mani, but I repainted the rest with China Glaze Refresh Mint.

Hello readers! So today I have a leopard print mani with a rhinestone heart on the accent nail. Essie Bond With Whomever is such a pretty and summery lilac creme. All pictures show two coats of Essie Bond With Whomever with free handed leopard print and topcoat. Today's post will be picture heavy so stay tuned!
