Nails: Monkey See, Monkey Do - Ombré Animal Print

I first saw this as a tutorial from CutePolish on YouTube, and thought I ought to give it a go as it has been a while since I freehanded some leopard print nails. I think it worked great other than the topcoat smudging on my ring finger, plus I much prefer purple to pink!

Tri-Colour Nail Challenge: Purple, Pink and Red #4

This is the forth month of a nail challenge which I am participating in, basically you are set three colours and you select three polishes to represent each. Four days, four different manicures using said polishes. I did this for the last challenge:

ELF-eyes-lips-face-purple-dream-color-club-poptastic-essie-snap-happy-french-stamping-bundle-monster-224-301-bm301-bm224
Stamping Plates: Bundle Monster 224 and 301

These are the three polishes which are to be used for these challenges. Do expect to see three more for this month. ELF's Purple DreamColor Club's Poptastic and Essie's Snap Happy.
