I love crayons when I was young, who doesn't? :) There's so much you can do with it. I had fun using it on art projects or even just drawing and coloring by myself. This is some kid's stuff you won't get enough of.

So for my nail art this week, I did a crayon-like effect design and I'm going to show you how.
Here are the materials and nail polishes that I've used.

After cleaning my nails, I've first painted it with a base coat. Then, I put 2 coats of a light purple as my base color.
With a drop of a blue color nail polish on a clean sheet of paper, I dipped a fan brush and brushed it onto my nails.
With the same process as above, I took a green color nail polish and put a drop of it on the paper and dipped the fan brush and brush it again onto my nails.
Note: Apply a little pressure while brushing. This will help achieve the grungy crayon-like effect.
Moving on to the third color which is a darker purple nail polish, I've also placed a drop of it on the paper and dipped the clean fan brush and brush it onto my nails.
Note: Clean the fan brush after you do the next color coz the bristles will stick together as the nail polish dries.
Lastly, with the purple base color that I've used earlier I did the same thing as above.
Note: You can repeat the process until you get your desired look.
After making sure that it is completely dry, I've put a layer of top coat.
And now I have a crayon effect nails. This also looks like an impressionist style painting. :)
Have fun!
