Happy Monday girls! 
Some months ago, I read an article in the nail magazine, which was about creating water marble nail art. Kept that in mind, and tried out myself. But it did not turn out good at all!
Items that I used: 2 nail colors, a container with warm water, tooth pick, and lip balm for applying around finger to avoid staining the nail color.
Drop 2-3 drops from each color, and use toothpick to create some motif in the water.
The, dip your finger into the water. You have to be fast in this as you can see the top layer of the water has started to form a jelly-layer.
Pull out immediately and it is done!
Uh.. not very even. And I think the colors are too thick.
The worst part is, the back of the nail is full of polish! Gosh.
You can clean the inside of your nail later with the toothpick if you want to keep the color.
I decided to just wipe it off first…since.. it was bad.
Anyone has heard of/tried this method before?
Please enlighten me.

good try though dear!
i tried this and failed miserably too
i didnt even get the colour on my nail as “flat” as yours
i think its the nail polishes i used
thats why im wanting to try china glaze INK and OMG ranges!
yahui: LOL. it was messier than i thought!
LyNn: hahaah i think we need thin nail polish!
Nikki: *blush*
at least you gave it a try! Lol. interesting concept though
You need to leave your nail in the water while removing the excess polish on the surface of the water with a toothpick or skewer or something. When you pulled your finger out after dipping, it pulled all that other polish from the surface of the water onto your nail.
you can go to “you tube” type “marble nail art” and see some videos. The key is to use shades that are very different. very light and very dark to see the design. also use a tape around the nail so that you won’t have to clean up so much. I will try out and put in my blog and tell u the result of my experiment
hi there!
i once saw this before in a shopping lot, a shop was demonstrating how to do this marble nail art and I was amazed by it… the results were really great… i wanted to do that on my own too but failed too.. hahha..
nice try tho
