Tools~Fan Brush


The fan brush is a rather peculiar thing. People often look at it for the longest time and think "Just what on earth do I use this for?". Lets unearth it's mystery,shall we?

Firstly, you can use it to make ombre or gradient nails. Instead of using a piece of sponge for the purpose, use the fan brush! Check out how to get ombre nails over here at this blog entry> Ombre Nails

Secondly, you can use the fan brush to uniformly sprinkle on  OR remove excess glitter on nails. 

Other than those, check this video out!

O~OMBRE


Ombre is a French term meaning 'shaded'.

In fashion, it usually refers to how something starts off one colour 
and gradually becomes another.

If the word appears familiar, it's probably due to the popularity of 
ombre hair in recent times.

And if it isn't... it's not too late to catch on!

There is a few methods to achieve ombre or gradient nails, 
as it is also known.

Two colours are good enough but you can also 
jazz it up by using multiple colours!



Using a make up sponge as stamp


Using a thin brush


The process of getting ombre nails can get a little messy...
but what's some minor clean up when it is so absolutely beautiful?
