Zebra Glitz Nails

          The finished product and a real finger nail :O

                      I'm using a free Impress sample as my model ^-^ So first I used a skinny black brush which you can find anywhere in a drugstore. When you make your first mark, make the beginning of the line a little thicker and naturally stroke the brush to make a uneven line that is skinnier at the tips. Alternate lengths on the same side and then do the same of the other side. Yeah... I messed up on the right side. Heh heh. But, you can hardly tell from afar. For the empty spaces draw a few extra strokes but try not to overdo it even though it is really fun. I kind of did this backwards but do the finishing glitter before the clear coat. Apply the glitter on some of the black lines but not all of them. Now, for the clear coat it is perfectly fine to over stroke the brush over the nail several times. That would make the black line to bleed and cause a nice transition like a real zebra print. It makes the nail line look more softer and real. Just wipe the black off  your clear coat afterwards. And there it is. ZEBRA PRINT. If you have any questions comment, and I will be glad to answer them :)
