My mom is addicted to eBay. If only costs $1 and ships from Hong Kong, she is going to buy it! Normally it just makes me roll my eyes, but she recently got me some nail art stuff I'd been meaning to try anyway!
She got me a set of 12 two way nail art pens. I'd seen these reviewed by Rebecca here and was curious how this type of pen would compare with the felt tip type nail art pen I've been using. I'd read on several blogs that the brush part to these pens is crappy. That the bristles fall out and are worthless. So my first step was to open them all up and remove all the bristles. I just used tweezers and it grabbed all of the bristles at once, a gentle tug removed them without any trouble.
Of what little bit I've used them so far, they seem like they will come in handy at times.The polish itself stinks to high heaven and the glitters are pretty sparse and "bleh," but the pen tip is nice. I wonder if the bottle can just be emptied and filled with a different polish?
She also bought me a set of nail art brushes that comes with a super tiny dotting tool. I also have the multicolored set of dotting tools from eBay (also reviewed by Rebecca here) and this is about 3/4 the size of the smallest in that set. I was excited about these because of the different sizes in the brushes! I don't know how much use I'll get out of the flat square brush, but it must be included for a reason.... And I want to find some ways to use the fan brush, I think that will be the most fun!
These have short, fat, yellow handles. I find that it makes them easier to control with the fat handle! Big plus!
