$4 Blue/green/gold and glitter - Water Marble Nail Art


Oh, how I DO love a good sale!

Last week I shared with you that Walgreen’s weekly sale included Sinful Nail Polish for just $0.99 a bottle! I absolutely LOVE Sinful polishes to begin with for their fantastic color range, but they are also great for water marbling! Look at my marble manicure created only from Sinful polishes:

I did this water marble a LITTLE different. That pretty blue-green glitter is actually the base color coat. None of that polish was involved in the actual marbling process.  I actually incorporated using a clear top coat in the marbling process between the color drops to spread the colors apart.

So for example, I would do a drop of the Tokyo Pearl white, a drop of a clear coat, a drop of the gold glitter polish, a drop of the clear polish, than a drop of the solid gold/yellow color, and continue that way.
It couldn’t have been an easier marble as far as I can tell. I love this technique and will hopefully trying it again soon. More importantly, all of these polishes were $4. And they are full sized bottles! I could easily do this manicure ten more times with the same colors before even running low.

A clear top coat

What do you think about this method of water marbling?

Love,
