When doing acrylic swatches I reccommed using the top side of the swatch to avoid any colour discrepancies! Great video however! I think you should bring out your own powders, you have impeccable taste ❤

[@Meech817]

White acrylic is actually a little harder to work with. I've been making my own colored acrylic for 6 years. If you use 1 part white, to 3 parts clear it comes out and opaque color like you're looking for, and is way easier to work with. I've even found you can use less white than that and it still comes out opaque. Sure this is too late for you, but for anyone looking to make acrylic mixes in the future. Edit:spoke too soon, see you did end up doing more clear than white. 💛

[@imcaii7448]

Pastels are very deceptive to work with, they look so vibrant until you set them. Even with clear coatings on a art pieces or dolls makes them look dull or washed out. The clear did look better, I agree.

If you used lets say 5 teaspoons of clear, and 1 and a half of white.. the application would be much more smooth, and still real opaque. Just a tip.

[@patriciagallacher6741]

You don't need a lot of chalk and that goes for any acrylic making even when using pigments. Use a tiny bit of coloured chalk or pigment then clear and only a tiny bit of white to make the colour more intense. So 60 % or70% clear 10% white then 20% colour and glitter. Doing it this way will make it work so much better and easier to work with.

[@asiabadd3731]

I was thinking the exact same thing. The amount of white she used was the reason why you couldn’t see the glitters also, using the finest sanding band on a very low speed will make the chalk come off like dust, without the chunky pieces.

I was so excited to see another one of these videos! From personal experience, to get the glitter to show up on the other side, rotate your brush and basically place the bead upside down. Cause when you go in to lift the bead from the jar the glitter is stuck closest to the bristles so by flipping your brush you can place it glitter-side-down instead of the bulk of the colored powder! hope that helps :D

Dang these notifications! I'm late to the party (per usual). & I am sure someone has suggested this already, but I've found applying the mixture *ON TOP* of the swatch sticks (as u wld in real life) instead of underneath & then flipping it over, would yield much better results. That's why the bottom is showing better. You're applying it wrong side down, unless that's what you're going for. For even BETTER results, after applying the acrylic, finish with a top coat like you wld in real life. I LOVE a top coat moment! Lol. This technique works (for me) when I make swatches for my clients, in my humble opinion. Much love. Keep inspiring! 💗🧡💛💚💙💜
