Excitement does not begin to describe how I feel about this post and these manicures. Ever since I have started getting seriously into nail art and polish water marbling has always fascinated me. I learn very well visually so after watching a few videos on water marbling I figured I should give it a shot. I was amazed by my results. Obviously, with time my designs will become more accurate, but for a first go I was very impressed with myself. Also, it is a blast!!

I think that my favorite nail was the thumb nail. I think all over the colors came through really well. On each nail I experimented with the design flow and the color pattern used. For instance, on my middle finger I put rings of pink, orange, yellow, pink, orange, yellow. But for my ring finger I did pink, orange, yellow, pink, orange. The polishes I used were Sinful Colors-Pink Forever, Orly-Orange Punch, and Fuse-Lil' Miss Sunshine. I really liked how all of these polishes interacted with the water. Originally, I had planned to do a pink, black, white design. However, my white and black did not work well in the water. At the very last second I decided to change to this color pattern, which I really ended up liking.
While waiting for my nails to dry I started experimenting with other color patterns I could thing of and I came up with this one first try. So I decided to go crazy and water marble twice. Hey, good practice. For this water marble I used OPI-Here Today Aargon Tomorrow and OPI-Don't Feed the Hand Models. I love how these two interact. The "Don't Feed the Hand Models" was a bit difficult to work with because it is an older polish I own. However, after tapping the glass I was able to get it to spread.

I am so obsessed with how these two manicures came out. I topped both of them off with my beloved HK Girl Top Coat that I always use. I cannot wait to try water marbling again. I hope you beauties don't get sick of it!!
What kind of interesting painting techniques do you beauties use? Have any of you tried water marbling? Let me know. Have a beautiful day!!
