Looking for cheetah print french tip nails with a little something extra? Think chocolate brown tips, pink spots or a touch of gold glitter.
These ideas mix spotted French tips with flowers, sparkling details and a few other animal patterns.
You can keep things simple or go all out. There are almond shapes, long square tips and even a matching pedicure idea.
Pick your favorite colors, then decide how much print you want.
Spotted French Tip Nail Ideas to Try
chocolate tips and a little sparkle
We’re starting off strong with these gorgeous chocolate brown tips. I love the glossy pink base and the single spotted accent among the solid brown French tips.
If you want that little extra detail, ask for a tiny sparkling accent near the cuticle like the one here.
white flowers and spotted tips
How cute are these little flowers? The white petals sit alongside brown spots, curved cream lines and tiny dots on a nude-pink base.
There’s plenty going on here, but those pale tips are so pretty. Keep the flowers on a few accent nails if you want to try this mix.
pink spotted almonds
I am obsessed with this pink version. The light pink French tips have dark outlines around brighter pink spots, with a glossy pink base underneath.
Ask for the same pattern across every tip if you love a matching set. The pointed almond ends are worth saving too.
black tips and spotted accents
If you are looking for a black French manicure with something extra, this one is for you. The square tips sit beside full spotted accent nails on a pink-nude base. I especially love the little reflective details mixed into the print.
gold glitter tips
The glitter fans are going to love this! Black spots sit over gold-colored tips, with fine sparkle fading down toward the pink base.
Instead of a sharp French line, ask for that scattered glitter edge. I’d leave off any extra gems and let these tips do their thing.
white squares with a spotted trail
Don’t want animal print on every nail? No problem! Try these long white square tips with brown-and-black spots trailing down one accent nail.
I love how the pattern crosses from the white tip onto the nude base. It’s a cute detail to keep when you show this picture at your appointment.
deep black french tips
This is another pretty way to mix black tips with a spotted nail. The long square ends have deep curved French lines, while the ring nail gets an all-over pattern.
That single accent is my favorite part. You don’t need to put the print everywhere.
burgundy and brown spots
This burgundy manicure may just be one of my favorites here. I love the dark red tips beside the brown spotted accents.
There’s a slim burgundy curve beneath each patterned tip too. Ask for that little line if you want to bring the two designs together.
white tips with scattered spots
Want a little more print than a single accent? These white square tips have spots scattered across several nails, with some continuing down the sides of the pink base.
Keep a few tips plain white like the ones here. You still get plenty of pattern without covering every nail.
all-over white accents
I love this mix of plain white French tips, spotted tips and fully patterned white nails. The brown centers inside those dark spots look so cute against the white.
Save this one if you want your accent nails to have more print than the rest of the set.
classic tan spotted tips
If you’re looking for a matching manicure without extra decorations, go with these tan and dark brown tips. The pale nude base and almond shape keep the rest simple. No flowers or sparkle needed.
turquoise flowers and mixed prints
OMG, how pretty are those raised blue flowers? This set mixes turquoise tips with tan animal-print sections, dark stripes and little gold-colored details.
There’s a lot to choose from here. For a simpler variation, try one flower accent with turquoise French tips on the remaining nails.
dark patterns and sparkling stones
If you love mixing designs, then this one is for you. These long square nails bring together spotted borders, dark striped tips and an accent tip covered in sparkling stones.

The pink base stays visible through the middle of each nail. I’d keep that open space if you’re trying several patterns at once.
a red star accent
How cute is that red star? It sits over a white French tip between the spotted almond nails, with little gold-colored details adding a bit of shine.
Try a single red accent like this if you want some color without changing all your tips.
pink bases and narrow spotted tips
Don’t want to go overboard with the nail art? No problem! These glossy pink nails keep most of the pattern right at the ends.
I love the narrow spotted tips and the way a few marks reach down the sides. The rest of the nail stays plain.
brown patches and black outlines
This set gives you a different take on animal print. The square tips have large dark brown patches separated by tan lines, rather than the smaller outlined spots in many of the other designs.
I especially love the thin black curve beneath each tip. Ask for that outline if you want to keep this look.
pointed tips with sparkling borders
I am obsessed with these pointed tips. The glossy black French tips look gorgeous beside the brown spotted tips on pink bases.
Those tiny sparkling borders around the patterned tips are my favorite detail.
Add a little gem near the cuticle on each finger to finish your version.
purple spots and white curves
Who says you have to stick with brown? This purple set mixes solid color, spotted accents and French tips with curved white borders.
I love the purple centers in the dark spots. Keep the little sparkling bands on a couple of nails if you want the same extra decoration.
spotted french pedicure
Want a pedicure idea to go with your manicure? These toenails have pale pink bases and narrow spotted French tips.
The brown-and-black pattern follows each edge without covering the whole nail. You could pair this with the tan almond tips above for a similar color combination.
white almonds with spotted edges
Last but definitely not least, we have this pretty white French manicure. I love the two spotted accent tips between the plain white ones.
The pattern travels a little way down the sides of the pink nails. Keep that detail if you want something beyond a straight band of spots.
