Hi! This is Christina Mendocino at thehennagirl.com. We are doing tips and techniques of body painting and I have some paint here. I am going to try and use the liquid paint right now and do a design on my friend Cathleen what I am first going to do before I open this bottle, it is liquid. Liquid paints tend to… the thicker parts tend to go to the bottom and they settle so what you want to do is you give it a good shake before you open it. I like to just pour it into my top like that and work from there. I have a thick brush and a thin brush. If you are just starting out you might want to use thin brushes. Thin brushes are easier to get where you are going. A thicker brush might be a little tricker but try them both see what you like. What we are going to do I will show you with the thin brush is we are going to do something may be a piece of jewelery on Cathleen. So I am taking her hand here and I want to set it so it is not crooked to one side because to know where my center is which would be right about there. When you do a center of a bracelet you have to look at the back to make sure you did not go too down and you want to make it here, come around right there.
