The Fingerbang Pop-Up Nail Art Salon
Nail Art is something that is sadly not very well known here. Thanks to Larissa from Fingerbang this concept is now finally hitting the streets of Berlin. Until Monday she hosts a pop-up nail art salon with 3 professional nail artists from London and one illustration and video art duo from Berlin transforming your fingernails into canvases for their art. Gina and I checked it out today and got some cute little monsters painted on our nails by artist duo Ben&Julia who are also currently having an exhibition at Voo. We took some snapshots of our nails and those of some of the other girls there for you that you can enjoy after the jump. Make sure to make an appointment for your own fingerbang!

Nail art becomes most happening and trendy fashion today. I love to paint and accessorized my nail according to choice and mood. I prefer mostly elegant and beautiful design rather than making cartoon design.

I mostly use aylcrics as well. In my limited oil painting experience, I’ve used Grumbacher and Holbein. I really enjoy and prefer Holbein’s paints to Grumbacher because, in my experience, they are much more consistent in what comes out of the tube. Holbein’s paint is always a firm paste that spreads like butter. Grumbacher’s don’t always give me that experience they range from the paste to big oily glops (with most of it being pure transparent oil). As far as brushes, I enjoy the Monarch Mongoose brushes as well. I tried buying the Dick Blick branded Red Sables and had a terrible experience with them the bristles were literally falling out of the ferrule. So, I tend to agree that, with paint brushes, you really get what you pay for.I’d like to see a post about your color pallette at some point.Thanks again for the blog.
