SPLATTER PAINT technique design: robin moses nail art tutorial

[holdtheburger]

Can you do a tutorial about how you paint nails?? ( the base coat of nail polish you have under your designs) I can never seem to just paint my nails in one color without it looking sloppy.

[swissbeachbum]

can u do my nails?!

What Kind Of Paint Did You Use ?

[robinmosesnailart]

@1219sade acrylic water based paints :) see: most asked questions on my front page of youtube! xoxox

[MyGurlz100]

this is soo christmas-y I LOVE IT!! im going to use it as soon as christmas is here and i cant wait!!!!

[robinmosesnailart]

@MyGurlz100 ahhh..good idea..i should put this in my christmas playlist! thank you so much!

[Limelovenails]

oh.. I want this <3 just love your videos and your superb artwork !

[robinmosesnailart]

@Limelovenails thank you so much!

[TearfulShadows]

If you haven't already, check out some of the vids where they do the water marbeling and describe how they wrap their fingers in tape to keep from getting polish all over, I think that'd come in super handy for this pretty dsign. And clear tape is so much cheaper than nail forms!

[robinmosesnailart]

@msmusicaltheatergeek you are so welcome camille!!!!

[animalapr]

i have tried this numerous times and for some reason I can not seem to get the hang of this technique. Are there any further suggestions you can offer me and others having a difficult time? A specific brand of acrylic paint? a brush length/bristle type? I have watched all your videos in favorites as well but I simply can not get this gosh darn technique down :\ Please help! Thanks and I love this tutorial btw!

[robinmosesnailart]

@animalapr my only extra tip would be: start with paint from the bottle..tap over a paper towel...keep adding water until you see the "streaming lines" ............white works the best...so you can tap over your hand.....until you see the lines. it is a "feeling"...it feels "boingy" its not watery...and its not thick paint..its kind of like hair dye...and it has to be the right consistency....it takes practice and i have to practice before each time i do it...its easy and hard at the same time

[robinmosesnailart]

@animalapr but, once you get the splatters...GO WITH IT....KEEP TRYING all colors until you get that splatter....you will go "ahhhhh" when you 'get it'............use a striper brush...or...just a long haired liner...........but also...tap very lightly....too hard of a tap causes just dots.....its just a taptaptap.....not a TAP....do this over a paper towel for an hour if you have to and keep adding water.....you will find a zone.

[robinmosesnailart]

reading through the comments.i had to watch this again................because i forgot what i was on about....and i busted out laughing....i am crazy...

lol. but you know what? that splatter paint is pretty damn hot...so whatever right? :)

[LiLyMoOnCaKeSxo]

You're so funny. "We'd cry and then eat tortilla chips". lol <333 I love this!

[robinmosesnailart]

@LiLyMoOnCaKeSxo its so true..it took a long time to get this down...LOLOLOL none of us had a clientele back then.....LOLOLOL we were poor and sad and couldnt paint splatters.

[soguesswhat11]

Oh Robin, this is sooo cool! I am sooo going to try this technique out!! Looks gorgeous with that amazing glitter! Thanks for sharing!!

[robinmosesnailart]

@soguesswhat11 you are so welcome! good luck!!!!

[MzKitty0185]

@CarolRus That's a wonderful idea I love Tim Burtons The Nightmare before Christmas!! And I would love to see what you'd come up wit Robin!!

[robinmosesnailart]

@MzKitty0185 oh ilove doing them.....wait til halloween...last halloween i was just beginning .........so, this year is going to ROCK.

[rmcandlelight]

So gorgeous!!! What brushes do you use? 

[robinmosesnailart]

@rmcandlelight in this? a striper......a shorter striper...........brushes in general? see my favorites section and it shows how i use paint and brushes and everything :0 xoxoxoxoxo

[AIXA73]

GORGEOUS!!! super funny!!! I enjoyed a lot!!! Thanks x sharing!!!

[robinmosesnailart]

@AIXA73 thank you!!!

[marisela9309]

-do we use nail polish or acrylic paint for this?just wondering c:

[robinmosesnailart]

@marisela9309 acrylic paint.........since my video...ive seen others using polish with thinner..........with that, you get dots...with acrylic paint you get splatter lines.............:) two different techniques....i like this better because i dont have to use paint thinner. i spill everything. :) xoxoxox
