This is my first tutorial for nail art using acrylic. 

Lets start with a short Introduction on acrylic.

Acrylic is often used in the nail service like nail extension, embossed and 3D nail art. When e fine acrylic powder contact with a liquid called monomer, 

they create a reaction and it will harden. 

This is not a easy technique master such u need the right amount of powder and monomer.

Dont worry,

We will have a simple tutorial today.

Today tutorial - Gradient Naily!

This is so simple, easy and pretty! I can't wait to share this with you guys!

Lets get started~~

Pretty “Plaster” 

I broke my naily on my thumb! Cries!

However I cant cut it yet, its kinda deep inside, quite near my hyponychium. Putting a plaster does not look chic, and its kinda wasteful as you need to change it everyday. Thus I decide to use e nail foil that I used last week.

Since this is quite a new naily accessory, I shall share e naily love, and do a simple tutorial on “how to”. So for ladies who have a little chipped naily, you may consider this rather than cutting all your nails short ;)

E nails foil which can be purchase online or in store. 

*Due to the shiny surface, its quite hard to capture a nice picture without any reflection. But well, this is how SHINY it is on your naily !

iLuv Hearts tutorial

I promised to give a tutorial on how to draw small little cute hearts on your naily. However, I have been quite tied up with other stuffs at work hence, i decide to do a cheat tutorial instead. =X

I use the "Paint" tool to illustrate instead of my naily. This is how simple to draw a cutie heart on your naily.

You just need 2 strokes, 1 in each step.

Step One:

Step Two:

Tools 

i have people asking me what kind of brush i used, what is dotting tool, and where to buy. So i decide to write a post of this - Tools. 
This is the longest post i have written, hee.. So please bear with me.


I started DIY quite some time ago. i always self experiment and playing around with different "tools", nail decor, colors, trying to inmitate those interesting and pretty naily designs which i saw from magazine/website. So i kinda gain some experience from there.


These are the ones i have tested and frequently used. They are quite commonly found and inexpensive tools to doll up your naily pretty.

Art Brush 

You can get this from any bookstore. They came in various of different size but we only need those tiny one. I have 2 sizes, both are thin & skinny art brush for different drawing. This one below is the one frequent used. 

Quick & Easy Cherry Blossom Design
