Introduction to Nail Art Brush (I)

We have received some emails from members asking about the difference and use of each nail art brush. In fact, nail art brush is similar to the brushes for painting, but they are used for drawing on the nails. Since our nails are smaller and round in shape, nail art brushes are usually smaller and have different shapes designed for drawing different graphics in different areas. Nail art brush not only can be used for drawing with nail paint, but also for making 3D nail art, acrylic and gel nails. In other words, nail art brush is an indispensable tool for nail art lovers.

We are going to use “12x Nail Art Design Pen Painting Brush Dotting Tool Set” as an example to briefly explain how to identify the use of each brush for painting.
