How do you

[donna-louise]

How do you paint two colours diagonally on the nails. Do you use polish or nail art pens or both?

thanx

I personally do a 'full nail' polish and then apply another colour on the diagonal, I suppose it all depends on what effect you're trying to create.

For block color I use enamels or Acrylic paints applied with a larger brush...............for deviding block colours I use a striper brush and acrylic paint or enamel................ it depends on the look I want to create..........

Thanks for that. Would you do the full polsih paler than the diagonal colour?

I've only recently got my acrylic paints so I'm yet to try those out properly, looking forward to it though just got to find/make the time.

I've always used a contrasting metallic paint as my diagonal colour, only need one coat too as it covers really well, then if I want to add any striping etc I did it with nail-art pens but I also received decent brushes (V-brushes) in my latest order so I'm going to be having fun experimenting with those too, busy.. busy.. busy lol
