No longer a water marble virgin

Pink water marble nail art manicure

Since day 17 of the Laid Back 31 Day Challenge was "a new technique to you", I saw it as an excellent opportunity to try water marbeling! I was only planning to do an accent nail, but it didn't looks as busy as I thought it would, so I decided to do all ten nails, both because of practice and because it was so much fun! :)

It didn't turn out very good, lol :p I got lots of air bubbles in my manicure and I smudged my middle finger... Also the curves of the marble weren't smooth, I'm assuming that's because of my shaky hands and I should have been quicker dipping my nail in the water.

It was still fun though, and I will defenitely do it again!
I first applied a white base using H&M - In It For The Game. Then I used OPI - Pink Flamenco and Lucky Lucky Lavender and Essie - Castaway for the water marble.
