This may sound like a totally stupid question but what is 'one stroke'? Xx

Yes what is one stroke?

Dragging this back up

This is going to sound soooo stupid... do you think I could use a ruler for straight lines for quickness? Haha

My lines are rubbish (see photo below) I want them to be perfect. I know I use too much product. But whilst practising do you think it would be wrong to use a ruler? Haha cringe!!!

One stroke is where you paint, say flowers, with a brush loaded with 2 colours. I've attached an example below of my one stroke flowers xx

Hope this helps xx

Why not use striping tape? Apply tape, shellac over then remove the tape before curing for perfectly straight lines &#128522;

I'm not sure about a ruler but a good tip is to keep the brush straight and move the finger you're doing art on. So if you put the finger on a flat surface then roll it side to side (hope this makes sense, there's a video somewhere that I'll try to link for you) xx

Thank you, I'll watch this video later I've got a design client wants with perfectly straight vertical lines haha oh dear. I've tried striping tape on Gelish, the inhibition layer seems too wet, seems to skid lol. I'll give it another go. I also need less product on my brush. I'll update with results, I'm doing one of them this evening haha wish me luck xxx

I love nail art!

My clients on the other hand are sometimes quite reserved.

What brush do you use for this? I think mine may be too flimsy and I get splodges instead of flowers!

Exactly the same as this one hun. The bristles are nice and firm so easy to control and puts the paint exactly where you want it xx
