Time for Monday´s manicure post. The nail polishes for my today´s #hepicksmypolish challenge were randomly picked my little mr.R and I decided to do dry brush nail art with them. The polishes little mr.R picked this time were Models Own Pink Cocktail, Models Own Green Grass and China Glaze For Audrey. I do like all those polishes, but I couldn´t really imagine them together. Anyway I tried to make them work and so I decided to try a new nail art technique for me – dry brush technique.
Aeg esmaspäevaseks küünte postituseks. Seekordse #hepicksmypolish väljakutse kolm lakki on suvaliselt valitud väikese mr.R poolt ning parim valik tundus nendega teha nn kuivapintsli tehnikas küüned. Väikese mr.R poolt valitud lakid olid siis järgmised: Models Own Pink Coctail, Models Own Green Grass ja China Glaze For Audrey. Eraldi meeldivad need lakid mulle väga, ent neid koos samas disainis ma ausaltöeldes eriti hästi ette ei kujutanud. Ja sellepärast otsustasingi proovida enda jaoks uut tehnikat – kuiva pintsli tehnikat.
I started my manicure with a coat of Models Own Pink Cocktail and let it dry completely. Then I started adding Green Grass and CG For Audrey. For the dry brush technique I wiped off as much nail polish as possible from the nail polish brush before painting my nails. And so I applied both Green Grass and For Audrey with dry brush. I did mess it up a bit on my thumb, as you can see, because I had bit too much nail polish left on the brush.
Alustasin küünemaalingut ühe kihi Models Own lakiga Pink Coctail ning lasin sellel täielukult kuivada. Edasi hakkasin lisama ülejäänud kahte lakki enda küüntele. Kuiva pintsli tehnikas kantakse küünelakk küünele enamvähem kuiva pintsliga st võimalikult palju lakki tuleb pintslilt enne küünte lakkimist maha pühkida (kõige parem ja säästlikum on seda teha pudelist välja võttes pudelikaela vastu pintslit tõmmates, aga võib ka näiteks üle paberkäteräti tõmmata, et liigsest lakist vabaneda). Nagu näete, siis pöidlaküünel on ühes kohas lakki liiga palju kuna ma ei olnud pintslilt ikkagi piisavalt lakki eemaldanud.

The little Mr made good color choices! 🙂 I haven’t tried the dry brush technique, but I really should!

Very interesting, Leelo. I thought you had to use a fan brush for the dry brush technique. This is much easier. I will give it a try!
Leelo says
The tutorial that I saw didn´t say anything about the fan brush 😀 And the nail polish brush worked very well for this technique.
