So the lovely lady behind the blog Love for nail art, did a mani for this very challenge back in March that I found gorgeous, she also made a tutorial! Check it out here. I followed step by step the instructions and this was the result.
I like the result very much, except I bumped a little my ring fingernail when it was still wet, can you notice? I tried to fix it but it's visible. Well, next time it'll be better.
I find this a very practical idea for those who love the looks of a "water marble" mani, but don't want to struggle with it (I think I'll never ever try this technique!). It's too much time consuming and too many things to be prepared in order to succeed. I prefer saving all that energy for other stuff, lol!
Let me know your thoughts! And please, don't hesitate to visit the other creations made by all the participants.
Love,
Nati
Salut Nati, you got me all uh and oh here, stunning!!! And reading through your tutorial it even seems managable for me;-)!!! Though I certainly will only try with two colors first as I cannot get myself to try water marble either. Not only the preparation the clean-up seems not very quick either. And I would not have observed the microscopic smudge if you would not have mentionned it - in short - your mani looks perfect - Bisous xxx
ReplyDeleteSalut Christine! Thanks for your sweet comment, it really counts a lot to me. It's an easy technique with a great result!
DeleteBisous, xxx
WOW, this is so beautiful Natalia - lovely colors too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Maria! I feel so flattered comming from you, you're such an artist!
DeleteBeautiful, I love how the colors look together!
ReplyDeleteThanks Josephine, I tried to choose the colours which have something in common, so they don't look TOO clashy in the end.
DeleteHahaha - you made me laugh because--- I actually tried a watermarble ;)
ReplyDeleteBut this twin of that technique makes for a gorgeous effect and you totally nailed it! Beautiful one! :D
Mina, I've seen your water marble is superb! As I could never aspire to that level, I'm content with my "dragging" technique, haha. I'm glad you liked it.
