This month:  Catherine Wong reveals how to perfect 3D acrylic nail artistry

Tracey Lee of Beauty2trs comments: “Do you remember that one nail crush you had when you first started in the industry? The person you looked up to and followed passionately, trying everything they created, hoping one day you could be even 10% as good as they were? Well, that person is Catherine Wong for me. So, when I started Beauty2trs, she was at the top of my list to contact, and when she agreed, well, it just confirmed that she was everything I’d imagined her to be and more! (True story!)”

Class 1 – Foundation of 3D Flowers

This class is suitable for anyone who wants to master the foundation of creating 3D flowers. The goal of this class is to create clarity and realism in your flowers and colour co-ordination. You will learn seamless techniques to create gradation of colours in your 3D flowers.

There is a bonus class included using coloured acrylic powder for painting. This class is important for anyone who wants to progress to an advanced level of working with coloured acrylics.
