The world of nail art is a creative expression that requires patience, skill, and the right tools. Among these tools, the acrylic brush is an extension of your hands, and mastering the technique of how to hold it at different angles can make a difference in the quality of your work. In this blog, we will guide you through the secrets of using the acrylic brush at key angles.
90-Degree Angle: Miniature Perfection
When it comes to precise details or correcting imperfections on your acrylic nails, the 90-degree angle is your best friend. Imagine holding the brush as if it were a pen, with a gentle yet controlled grip. This angle is ideal for picking up small acrylic pearls and applying them precisely to specific areas of the nail. The technique is crucial for achieving a flawless finish.
LEGACY Tip: Use LEGACY’s scented Monomer for a pleasant aromatic experience while working on intricate details. Our brushes are perfect for this technique, with fine bristles that give you total control.
45-Degree Angle: Pearls, Application, and Elegant Sealing
When you need to pick up slightly larger acrylic pearls or apply a uniform layer to the nail, the 45-degree angle is the way to go. Maintain a firm yet comfortable grip on your brush and dip it into the acrylic. Then, apply it to the nail with smooth and even strokes. Additionally, this angle is perfect for sealing the cuticle area, thanks to the precise tip of the brush.
LEGACY Tip: Harness the power of our brushes for exceptional control and professional results. Combine them with LEGACY Monomer for an unparalleled experience.
0-Degree Angle: Masterful Sweeping and Blending
When it’s time to sweep the acrylic or blend the product to achieve a natural and beautiful look, the 0-degree angle is your ally. Hold the brush as if you were holding a palette, with the flat bristles in direct contact with the nail. Use smooth and precise movements to achieve a flawless finish.
LEGACY Tip: Our LEGACY brushes are ideal for sweeping and blending, with soft bristles that make the process a true work of art. Pair this with LEGACY’s low-odor Monomer for a pleasant experience.
