News to no one.
But I may have found them again with this nifty, super effective manicure that was so criminally easy, I almost hesitate to tell you how I created that cool marbled effect, lest you think I’m a totally unimaginative sod (why, I never!)
But okay, here goes, a mini tutorial, for what it’s worth.
Step 1: Paint your nails to opacity with a basic white creme.
Step 2: Once dry, take a small dotting tool and, using just a pink creme, a pale blue creme and a yellow creme, dip it lightly first into one polish (say, the pink) and then another (this time the blue) and then dot onto your nails in a random fashion. What you’ll be left with is a small marbled dot that’s a little pink, a little blue and a little purple combination of the two.
Step 3: Repeat with the pink and yellow polishes (which produce a pretty, coral-y orange) and the yellow and blue polishes (which, of course, produce green.)
Step 4: Top with a layer of high gloss topcoat such as Seche Vite. Then sit back and marvel at this magnificent mani that took next to no work! Marbles found.
Cute design 🙂
This looks super fun, also for spring/summer! xo
This is fantastic! Such a happy print!
It *is* very cheerful, isn’t it? 🙂
This is a fun idea, I need to try it!
Yes, please do – it really worked out quite well! I think it would also do pretty well with some very vibrant combos – think hot pink mixed with bright blue maybe? Good luck!
