Hi girls! Today, I will show you how to make flowers with the one stroke technic. I’ve placed them at the end of my nails, like a French manicure. This tutorial will help you if you’re new to one stroke technic. Since we don’t make an entire flower but only parts of it. It is quite easy. I hope that you’ll enjoy this tutorial. First, I’ve applied this base: England – Tristam. To do this nail art, I will use red and white acrylic paint And a one stroke brush. I’m using a square brush but you may use a beveled brush I dip one side of the brush light pink - obtained when mixing red and white color.
Then I shade off on my palette. And I make the simple petal. If your brush is too wet, like here, the paint won’t hold on the nail polish. Try to avoid this. Have a look at my video “One stroke for beginners”. You will learn how to do it. Just click on the click. So I draw three petals at each side. It is easy to do since we’re not doing an entire flower. It is quite difficult to an entire flower with the one stroke technic. When the paint is dry. Apply another coat to darken the color And if needed, like here, apply a third coat.
Now I dilute pretty much my detail brush to be able to make very thin lines. You can find the reference of this brush in the description. To highlight the drawing, I’ll draw the outlines. Then I add two big drops at the side. And now I fill the drawing with a grid.
To be able to do so, I have diluted my brush pretty much in water. It is not shown in the video. I have diluted my brush pretty much in water so that the white paint doesn’t write. And to obtain very thin lines, as you can see here. I make a quick grid. And then I use my doting tool to add some dots in the middle of it. Then to make it shine, I use a top coat. I add it inside of the flowers And now I sprinkle it with tiny glitter flakes. Do not use the normal glitter flakes because they are too big. It will mess up your design. Use glitter flakes that look like powder. You can use for example, glitter flakes used for makeups. And finally, I use the rhinestone glue to apply the rhinestone. So I apply a few of it and then I apply the rhinestone. And then I apply some top coat all over the nail to protect the design.
The nail art is done. I hope that you’ve enjoyed it! If you try this nail art, come and share it with me on my Facebook page. See you soon.
