Hi! This is Christina Mendocino from thehennagirl.com. I am here today to discuss body art tips and techniques. On behalf of ExpertVillage.com, I welcome you. The first thing I am going to go through with you today is the way you would purchase some body art paints and brushes and supplies. A lot of people do not really know how to go about getting supplies. They tend to get them at the Halloween shop. Some of the products there are pretty inferior and that might account for the frustration that a lot people have when they are trying to do home body art. So I am going to explain to you quickly what you should purchase and how to tell what is good and what is bad. We will start with some brushes. Most people tend to buy the pack of brushes, a cheap pack of brushes with different sizes in them. The reason that these brushes are not very good is because they tend to fan out. So when you take the paintbrush and set it against the skin, you cannot get a point, soon I press that it fans out and you know when you are painting on skin you want to be able to get a sharp point so these I would not particularly recommend.
