5 Ways To Add Some Glitter To Your Cheetah Print

Nothing says fierce quite like a cheetah print does. It's a wild yet classy trend that has been loved for decades and will continue to be for decades more. When everyone seems to be sporting this timeless look, how do you make it different to set yourself apart? Glitter. Make your standout animal print stand out even more with either a touch or a mountain of sparkle!  

This chic and fashion forward mani has a beautifully balanced combo of polka dots and cheetah print. With everything happening in this look, the cheetah print has more presence because of the glitter it sits on. Without the glitter it would just blend in with every other nail. That would be boring, wouldn't it?

So how do you create a stunning cheetah print glitter nail like this? It's pretty simple actually:

• Apply bonding formula to your nail.
• Sprinkle a liberal amount of glitter on your nail over a piece of card stock.
• Apply Sealing formula and allow to dry for 3-5 minutes.
• Apply second coat of Sealing Formula and allow to dry.
• Use the nail polish of your choice to paint your cheetah print on your glitter nail.
