Angled Liner Brush — Short Firm Bristles for Ultra-Fine Lines, Pack of 2 or 5

An angled liner brush has short, firm bristles cut on a slant, which gives you more control than a long, floppy liner. This white brush is made for thin lines, scratch lines, markings and fine hand-painted detail, and comes as a pack of 2 or a pack of 5.

Made for precision lines, loved by nail artists

This short, angled liner brush is of a type sold to scale modelers for scribed lines and panel markings, and the same style of brush is also made as a makeup eyeliner brush. Nail artists use it for the same short, precise marks. It is a precision brush, not a nail-brand product.

Long liner brushes are great for sweeping lines, but they can feel wobbly when you want to draw a short, precise mark. A short bristle with an angled edge gives a stiffer feel, which many people find easier for outlines, geometric shapes and tiny details.

What is in the box

Choose a pack of 2 or a pack of 5 brushes. Gels, paints and cleanser are not included.

How to use

1. Pick up a tiny amount of product on the tip of the brush.
2. Rest your hand against the table or a rest so the brush hand is steady.
3. Draw scratch lines, markings or hand-painted details using the slanted edge.
4. Cure or dry the design as your product instructs.
5. Wipe the brush clean straight away.

Who it suits

This brush suits beginners who want a stiffer liner to learn on and experienced hobbyists who want a short brush for tight detail work.

Tips for everyday use

• Hold the brush close to the ferrule for the most control.
• Use the slanted edge to turn corners in a single stroke.
• Thin the product slightly if it drags on the brush.

Good to know

Clean the brush after each use and reshape the bristles. With a pack, you can keep one brush for dark colors and one for light colors to avoid dragging pigment into a pale design. Store the brush flat or with the bristles up.

The packaging, label or instructions may mention scale modeling, panel lines or makeup/eyeliner use, and may carry a small printed model code. The product is the same and works exactly as described here.
