Red & Black Watermarble

Hey Y'all!

I have a really fun, different watermarble for you today. 

I know when you look at it, it seems like a regular been done before marble, but it's different and fun for me because of the colors I used.

This was originally gonna be a red, black and silver marble but my silver did not want to cooperate in the water. So I had already had the silver painted on my nails as my base so I decided to use just the red and black. So I dunked my nails into the marble and when I pulled them out, I was in love. The red had sheered out just enough in the water that when it went onto the silver it turned a metallic red! I absolutely loved it and thought it was so fun that the colors had transformed each other! 

So Let's get into the tutorial:

I started with a silver base of Sephora Formula X "Need For Speed" and have my fingers taped for easier cleanup.

I start buildin my bullseye. I used Sephora Formula X "Dark Matter," black and Sephora Formula X "Flashy," red. 

This is my finished bullseye.

Then with a needle I draw from the center of the bullseye out to the edge of the cup on both sides (or top and bottom, however the cup is facin you)

Then I drag across the cup in a criss cross pattern to create the chevron like design.

It'll look somethin like this.

Then I line my nails up in the cup and dunk them into the design. I did two nails at a time for this one. 

With a qtip cleanup the whole surface of the water before pullin your nails out.

Slowly pull your nails out of the water and checkout your design.

Next remove your tape and cleanup any little bits of polish that may have gotten on the skin.

Finish up with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!

I really love the way these turned out because of that mix with the red and silver. 

I hope y'all enjoyed these!

Fiery Watermarble

Hey Y'all! 

Today I have a little fire for ya! 

This was a random design I decided to do and I kinda like it! 

Here's how:

I started with a coat of Orly "Push The Limit" and taped my finger. You'll need a cup of room temp water. Mine is just tap water that I let out to sit while I get everythin else ready.

Then I start buildin my bullseye. I started with Orly "Fireball," Dare To Wear "Lemon Drop," and Orly "Push The Limit."

That's my full bullseye. The red wouldn't let anythin spread too far but it's big enough for one nail.

With my needle I drew from the middle to the side on both sides.

Then from the bottom of the cup to the top. just makin petal shapes in one direction. 

Next I drew back down each petal in a wiggly motion to create a flame like design.

Pick the part of the design you want and dunk your nail into it.

Use a qtip to clean up the entire surface of the water before pullin your nail out.

Remove the tape and use a small brush with acetone to cleanup the excess polish on the skin.

Use your favorite top coat to seal it all in. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!

I hope y'all enjoyed this one! I really like the way my middle nail turned out gol. I wish more of the nails had turned out like it, but overall I still like this design.
