" I loved the multi-color leopard print in Tracy Reese&amp;#x27;s fall 2013 collection. The pattern has become quite popular in the nail art world recently as well. Here&amp;#x27;s how to get a super-luxe leopard mani at home. This tutorial is good for people who want to put their nail polish collection to good use as it requires about 10 different shades! What you&amp;#x27;ll need: Quick-dry spray (optional) Stripper brush Base coat Dark gray nail polish White nail polish Black nail polish Silver nail polish Mixed nail polish colors for the spots Top coat Step 1: Protect the nails with a good base coat. I use Seche Rebuild to protect and strengthen my nails. Step 2: Paint a dark gray base (I used Nails Inc The Thames) over the nails. I like my nails to be totally dry before I move onto the next step and give them a spray with a quick dry spray. Step 3: In order for the leopard print colors to show up over the dark base use a thin stripper brush to cover all the nails with little white blobs where you want the spots to go. Step 4: Using the brush, paint alternating colors over the white spots leaving a gap between each row. I used all shimmery polishes to give a sequined look: Barry M Orange (136), OPI Be A Dahlia Won&amp;#x27;t You, Essie Going Incognito (with gold mixed in), Nails Inc Broadwick Street, and Barry M Gold (320). Step 5: Paint the remaining white spots with silver (I used Barry M Silver (319)). Step 6: Using black polish paint small blobs around the colored spots to create the leopard print effect. Step 7: Finish with a layer of top coat for a smooth, shiny finish. What do you think of this leopard mani? Would you wear it?
