Rainbow made
with markers
I’ve seen some pretty manis made with Sharpie pens. I
have been wanting to try the method for a while, but Sharpies are relatively
expensive here, and I haven’t been in the mood to spend a lot of money on
something I might only do once or twice.
I decided to try with some generic no name permanent
markers I bought recently. There were only eight colours in the pack, but
that’s plenty to make a rainbow!
Take a look at how it went:
Do you like it? I love it!
I’m wearing a white polish underneath: El Corazón
m&s-172, and the glitter on top is Orly’s “Shine on Crazy Diamond”.
Here are the things I used:
It’s probably not the last mani I do with these. It
was great fun, easy to do and it looks nice (and quite cheap compared to
‘paying only for the name’ Sharpies).
Have you tried this method yet?
Method I used:
-
Paint
nails with two coats of white nail polish
-
Apply
one layer of topcoat
-
Draw
on a silicone mat, dip a brush in rubbing alcohol, swipe the wet brush over the
area you drew on, and paint your nail
-
Seal
up with (glitter) topcoat
I love it, it's so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat's SO nice to hear :) Thank you!
DeleteYes I do like it! I want to try this too :)
ReplyDeleteYou should! It's a really different approach to nail art :)
DeleteIt looks fantastic! Beautiful rainbow! And you`re right - sometimes it`s better to find a cheaper thing instead of paying for name.
