Nail Art on Shellac

[5@MB]

Hi everyone! I am going to attempt some nail pops with Sheelac and some nail art tonight, it'll be my first attempt and I wondered if I could ask a few questions.

Do you finish your Shellac application, apart from topcoat, and use Shellac for the art or another Polish, then topcoat to seal?

How do you clean your brush?

Any other general tips?

Thank you!! Xx

Hi I use gellux not shellac so might be different but I always finish application, then nail art so if I make a mistake I can wipe it off and carry on. I then finish with another top coat as this hold everything in place.
Have fun playing! Xx

All depends on the art media and look you re trying to achieve ,

For light weight embellishments like glitter , foil , pigment , feather , cracked ice , all stick very nicely into the inhibition layer of cured color coat and then top coat,

If painting with Shellac on shellac I would do your base color cures and then do the art, cure and top coat,

If I'm using acrylic paint or stamps I do color cure top coat cure , remove inhabition layer , art , and more top coat .
