How is everyone doing today?! Hopefully well! (: Today is Fun Nail Fridays!!Aren't you guys excited? Because I know I am! Today I'll be showing you how to do 'Water Marble' nail design tutorial. To be honest with you guys, it's not an easy tutorial, so hopefully I'll work it out and help you through this tutorial so that you'll be able to do this Water Marble on your own. The products I used for this tutorial is:
Orly (Rubberized Basecoat)Seche Vite (Topcoat)
OPI (Alphine Snow)
Nubar (Hot Fuchsia)
Tools:
Tape, Orange Stick,
Needle/Toothpick,
Acetone/Nail Polish Remover,
Plastic Cup,
Distilled Water
Cotton
Before doing this nail tutorial, set everything up beside you so that you'll easily grab the tools that you'll be needing for this tutorial. I usually set aside a needle (or toothpick), Acetone (nail polish remover), Cotton (for cleaning process), Orange stick, and a plastic cup that contains distilled water. When you're done setting up your tools, go ahead and prep your nails like usual.
File and cut your nails and go ahead and put a basecoat on. Like I said, basecoat is very important because it helps protects your nails from discoloration and keeps your nails strong! So always put a basecoat on when you're doing any nail designs or a simple polished.
After putting on the basecoat, paint your nails with a white nail polish. I used "Alphine Snow" OPI for this design. The white polish is like a base coat before putting on other bright colors because it'll make your polish stand out more and the colors are more vibrant. When the polish dries, put tape around your cuticle.
This is a really messy nail design job, so we don't want to waste time cleaning after doing water marble. Take your Alphine Snow OPI and Nubar Hot Fuchsia and start dipping the colors one at a time in the water cup. This will eventually create a bulls eye. Take your needle/toothpick, create a design on the water. I usually make a flower for this water marble design.
Do this process quickly because you don't want your paint to dry out in the water! When you're done with the design and you're satisfied with it, dip your finger on top of that design. Leave your finger in the water and grab your orange stick. Taking your orange stick, take out all the access of the paint out of the water. The paint will grab onto your orange stick easily.
Carefully take your finger out of the water and start peeling the tape off your fingers gently. You can clean up the mess with Acetone or nail polish remover, which ever your prefer.
Finally, use Topcoat to give your nails a finishing touch. TAH-DAH! You've created a water marble nail design! It's not easy but practice always makes perfect! Oh, and you can use any colors you want for this nail design, I just happened to use white and hot fuchsia! (: Hope you enjoyed this tutorial! Have you had a chance to do this water marble?
