Silicone Nail Art Brush Set — 5 Shaped Tips

A silicone nail art brush works differently from a bristle brush: the soft silicone tip moves product without absorbing it, so you can place, shape and smooth gel, glitter and decorations. This set has five tools with different tip shapes, in Black or Silver.

Made for scale modelling, loved by nail artists

These silicone-tip tools were designed for scale-modelling work, where they are sold as silicone brushes for modelling. The soft tips move product without absorbing it, which is why nail artists use them to place, shape and smooth gel and decorations. They are a precision craft tool, not a nail-brand product.

Silicone tips are popular for 3D shapes, blending and pushing small pieces into position. Gel generally does not stick to cured silicone, so they are easier to wipe clean.

Why you will like it

• 5 different tip shapes in one set.
• Colors: Black or Silver.
• Silicone tips for placing, shaping and smoothing product.
• Wipe-clean tips.
• A good complement to bristle brushes.

What is in the box

5 silicone brushes in the color you choose. Gels, decorations and cleanser are not included.

Where it fits in your routine

Use these when you are building small shapes with builder gel or placing a rhinestone, or smoothing a small amount of product. Keep your bristle brushes for line work and use silicone for shaping.

If you work with several colors, wipe the tip between each to keep them clean.

How to use

1. Pick up a small bead of product on the tip.
2. Place it on the nail where you want it.
3. Shape or smooth it with the tip, using a different shape for a different effect.
4. Cure or dry as your product instructs.
5. Wipe the tip clean.

Who it suits

This set suits gel artists who build small shapes and anyone who wants cleaner placement of decorations.

Tips for everyday use

• Choose the tip that matches the shape you want.
• Wipe the tip between colors.
• Combine with bristle brushes for detail.

Good to know

Wipe the tips with a lint-free wipe and a suitable cleanser before the product cures. Store them away from sharp objects.

The packaging, label or instructions may mention scale modelling (for example modelling or dry-brushing use). The product is the same and works exactly as described here.

More ways to get value from it

Silicone-tipped tools are especially useful when you work with gel that stays workable until cured. You can push, pull and sculpt without the bristles picking up product, and then wipe the tip clean. Five tip shapes give you a range: some are pointed for fine placement, others are flatter for smoothing or rounder for pressing.

Because silicone does not absorb gel the way bristles can, the tips are easy to keep tidy between colors.
