My first attempt at water marbling nail art

Hey guys

Last night I did my first try at water marble nails...it is sooo difficult.

Apart from the fact that most of my nail varnishes wouldnt spread in the water, I allowed the water to get to room temperature (although it wasnt filtered) and spent ages taping up my finger around my nails. The actual dipping wasnt difficult, it was just the lack of nail varnish cooperation! It also takes a lot of nail polish to do this design.

Still, I managed to get a design that has a very faint nail water marble effect to it so I am pleased. I also added dots to the design as a) I like it when i have seen it done by others and b) it helps to hide some of the rubbish its on mine!

I would love to read your comments below.
