If you are looking for a playful and versatile manicure, look no further than cow print.

Adding these stickers to your nails can be done in different ways, including wrapping the entire nail or focusing it on just the tips.

This is also great for a woman who wants their manicure to have a little bit of glamor and sparkle.

 

 

34. Easy Cow Print Nails

The standard cow print pattern is easy to recreate because the spots are irregular; this gives you more freedom because they do not need to be as precise and perfect to look good. You can experiment with the sizes and angles where you place the spots and try out different color combinations. For an effortless look, you want to keep the nail art as simple as possible; avoid adding other details or trying techniques that are harder to achieve, like the French tip manicure.

 

 

35. Cow Print and Sunflower Nails

What could be more cheerful and fun than a combination of classic cow print with a sunflower? Cow print is incredibly versatile and can be mixed and matched with different colors and designs, but the sunflower is one of the best choices for two reasons; the bright yellow color pops against the black and white, and the symbolism linked with it. Sunflowers are associated with happiness, joy, and devotion. They can also represent good luck. If you want to lighten your mood and get compliments on your manicure, this is the way to do it.
