Valentine's Day Animal Print Recreation

I was inspired to recreate this nail design I originally found on Nails in Nippon. This is my first time using the Sponge method & I am still improving on Konad Stamping. She only used polish for the first coat, then she used Acrylic Paint which I do not have. She also did her tiger stripes freehand which, I also have never tried therefore I am not so sure I would be good at it yet.

I used 2 coats of Catrice White polish, next I sponged Essie's French Affair over the white, then proceeded to sponge a Red polish (I used NYC's 131A). After that I used Milani's 584 RED Glitter over the tip area. Once it was dry I used Konad Stamping to create the animal stripes & topped it off with Seche Vite top coat.

Hot Pink Glitter & OPI Jelly Sandwich

This is a look I did for Valentine's Day... It is a sandwich of colors which is when you layer colors. The first color I used was "Hot Pink" by Milani which is a pink & silver hexagon glitter. Then layering "Do You Think I'm Tex-y?" by OPI which is a dark pink jelly & looks amazing all alone as well. Then adding another of Milani & again with the OPI, along with a Seche Vite top coat. I think it looks really nice & was very easy to accomplish. Feel free to let me know what you think in the comment box below.
