blue water marble

Good morning!
I had a hard time deciding what to post this morning, so I'll probably have a swatch post up later too.

The other day while I was staying with my cousin, I water marbled her nails. And then I decided to do mine too!


It turned out lovely!
I used all China Glaze polishes, as I prefer to do with water marbling.
For Audrey, Shower Together, and Liquid Leather.
It took me a while to decide on the colors, I stared at my China Glaze container for a while before picking these three.


I used one coat of For Audrey as a base coat. I really like how Shower Together came out much lighter in the marble - it looks pretty.

Marbling is so much fun but so messy and sometimes wasteful. Haha.

    Beautiful colours. I like how Liquid Leather doesn't look black because it has gone over the blue.

    Looks lovely! I tried to set a goal for myself to water marble at least twice a month because I need practice at it! But last month I only water marbled once. I guess I better get on it this month so hopefully you have inspired me with this beautiful mani!

    beautiful! I can't stand the thought of using up so much polish for water marbling. I too feel it's wasteful. But if I were to use the polishes I'm not too attached to for the marble, I probably wouldn't like it anyway!

    Nice post. I learn something more challenging on different blogs everyday. It will always be stimulating to read content from other writers and practice a little something from their store. I’d prefer to use some with the content on my blog whether you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a link on your web blog. Thanks for sharing.
