Mint Leopard Print toe nails

I bought some Nail Art pens on the weekend from Boots and thought I would try them out. This is my first attempt at nail art, so don't be to hard on me.

I decide to create Leopard print nails, see picture below

  • I create this by first using a base coat to protect my nails for any staining. 
  • I then chose Barry M Nail Paint in Mint Green as the main colour, apply two coats of this.
  • Next I used Models Own Nail Art Pen in White to paint on white spots in random places.
  • Let this dry for 5mins
  • Using the metal tip on Models Own Nail Art Pen in black carefully draw around the white spots and full in any gaps with random black marks.
  • Allow the design to dry for 10mins and then apply a top coat, which helps protect your design and create a glossy finish.
