This was a first attempt, and if you&#8217;re a novice like me it&#8217;s really not too hard to master.<\/p>\n<p>I love this look for a few reasons. Firstly, it&#8217;s leopard print. What&#8217;s not to love about that? Secondly, it lasts for around a week &#8211; much longer than a normal block colour because of the light base coat. And last, but certainly not least, if it chips you really can&#8217;t tell at all.<\/p>\n<h3>What you need<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Light Base Coat<\/li>\n<li>2 Darker Shades, I went with pink and a dark brown<\/li>\n<li>Top Coat<\/li>\n<li>And 20 minutes of your precious time!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Steps<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Paint the entire nail a light base colour and let dry<\/li>\n<li>Use your secondary colour and place\u00a0circular\u00a0dot shapes around the nail &#8211; they should be different sizes and shapes, let dry<\/li>\n<li>With your darker colour trace the outside of your dot shapes leaving some spaces, along with some random dots<\/li>\n<li>Finish with a couple of top coats.
