Designing is my stress relief

To keep calm or find my inner peace after some chaos I can be found painting. For my nail art I use polish, nail paints, acrylic paints from crafts stores, and loose glitters. Nail art shouldn't be restricted, each client is different so I cater to their taste. I hate to so no so every nail trend I will try just ask. I will show you five designs done by hand. I use Kolinsky brand brushes, Loew-Cornell(inexpensive good quality), stripers, and no name Michael's value pack brushes. Animal print, line designs, dots, cartoon inspired images, and flowers are just a few designs I have mastered. Light strokes is the secret ;).

Brush comparison

Painting nails can get messy. Some have a preference on brush size but I don't. True some cover more areas in a swipe or two compared to others but to me its the formula also. Here I have taken a picture of Sally Hansen complete Salon Manicure thick brush, an Ulta Salon Formula brush, lastly is an Essie brush. I found that the Essie brush I have to swipe more to cover an entire nail but I don't hate it. Essie's formula is thin so second to third coats are always required for an even coverage. On the plus side each coat dries pretty fast.
