Matching Manicures Sunday: Watercolour

Watercolour je još jedna tehnika koju nisam ranije probala i odmah da kažem da je verovatno više nikad neću raditi.

Watercolor is another technique I had never tried before and I am going to say right away that I will probably not try it ever again.

U pitanju je tehnika koja može da se radi na par načina. Jedan se sastoji u tome da se lak nanese na nokat u malim količinama, zatim četkica natopi čistim acetonom i lak na noktu razređuje i prave šare. Drugi način podrazumeva obrnut redosled - lak se razredi pa nanosi na nokte. Kao podloga se koristi beli lak. Preporučujem upotrebu nadlaka preko njega kako se ne bi oštećivao, što ja nisam učinila pa sam imala problema. Možda je najbolje ovu tehniku raditi akrilnim bojama koje se razređuju vodom.

It is a technique which can be done in a couple of ways. One consists of applying a small amount of polish onto nail, dipping brush with pure acetone and then diluting polish on the nail making the design. The second one is done vice versa - the polish is first diluted on some surface and then applied onto nails. White polish is used as a base colour. I recommend applying top coat so that the base colour doesn't get damaged. Maybe it's the best to do this technique with acrylic paints.

Koristila sam / I used:

Eveline Maximum nails growth

Golden Rose Rich Color 66

 Golden Rose Paris 86

Golden Rose Paris 52

Golden Rose With Protein 349

Aura Jelly top coat

Pljosnatu četkicu / Flat brush

Odlučila sam da napravim gradijent. Pokušala sam na prvi način da ga uradim ali nije išlo pa sam prešla na drugu varijantu. Ne sviđa mi se neujednačenost u krajnjem efektu, dopunjavala sam praznine ali džabe. 

I decided to make gradient.  I tried to do it the first way but it didn't work so I switched to the other one. I don't like the non-opacity in the final look, I tried to fill in the bald spots but it didn't change anything much.
