Nail *Beautorial*: WATER MARBLING

PLEASE READ:

I am in no way a nail artist/professional. The first time I tried water marbling, I failed miserably. This video is the product of many failed attempts, especially trying to find the right temperature water and the right vessel to perform the marbling procedure in. So after much trial and error, I have found that a regular plastic cup and room temp/lukewarm water work best.

Some people may have the same outcome as I did, some may not. So this is just from my experience. Nonetheless, I hope this helps out and answers some questions!

Products used (in order):
Revlon Extra Life
NYX Nail Polish – White
Plastic cup
Room temperature/lukewarm water
China Glaze – Unplugged
Essie – Mucho Dinero (one of my favorite colors EVER!)
Toothpicks
Nail polish remover
Cotton pads
Q-tip
Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat

Thanks for all the support!
