I've always been mesmerized by marbles, oh the mixture of the twirls and swirls inside of them are just perfect. Each one is different and unique, just like these nails. So get yourself to the kitchen because im sure all of you have the supplies needed! Also I'd like to apologize for my funky nails. I chipped a couple while rock climbing. I must say, ever since I started its been hard to keep a steady relationship with my nails. Sometimes it just seems pointless, but atlas I find myself doing it either way. Anyways here is three quick and easy steps to get your nails looking "marbleous".
Materials
#1. Dark nail polish (I used a dark purple)
#2. A grayish polish
#3. Top coat
#4. Plastic wrap
Step one: Paint your nails with your dark polish. This will be your base coat.
Step two: Once your nails are 100% dry, it is time to coat your nails with the gray polish (literally paint over the base coat). You will need to work fast while doing this, and one nail at a time. The second you paint your nail grab your plastic wrap, crumple it up, and dab your nail until you get the desired pattern.
Step three: Top coat it up & done!
Cheers
Hope you enjoy your weekend!
They look awesome! Also, I love your ring, it's so cute!

Looks fantastic! I've tried this before, It didn't turn out quite as beautiful as yours haha
ReplyDeleteVery cool. I should try this. Maybe it would make it less obvious when I chip my nails? Because I always do. My nails never stay perfect for more than a day, no matter what polish I use. I think I just use my hands too much.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so much better than the water marble technique! And it looks so much easier. :)
ReplyDeleteIt actually is! things get much messier with water marbling. At least for me it does.
