NOTD - Zebra print

For my first attempt at zebra print, i have to say, i'm quite impressed with myself! Although, i didn't leave it long enough before applying the top coat and my stripes did smudge a little, but practice makes perfect i guess!







Heres how i did it:



First off, i used OPI nail envy as a base coat (my poor nails are still recovering after their last acrylic stint).

For the white base i used Revlon Stay Perfect nail colour in White, this is actually a tip whitener for french manicures, but its the only opaque white i had!

For the stripes i used a really small paint brush and Barry M black nail polish. i dipped the brush in clear polish first so it dried stiff, to avoid the bristles fanning out or bending to much whilst doing the stripes

I finished off with a swipe of OPI fast dry top coat :)

    i think my bf would mock me if i had yet another thing in zebra print. can't match a pair of shoes, a cardi, or a purse with nails....but can do it on its own.
