Water Marbled Nails!

Water Marbled Nails!

Rating: **

Finished Nails

Tools

 I used:

  • Maybelline New York 661 Ocean Blue
  • Barry M Gelly Cotton 505
  • Love Your Nails Fast Dry Spray
  • Water
  • Cocktail stick

Step 1

Paint your nails blue.


Step 2

For the water marbled effect, fill a small pot with water. Drip a small amount of white nail varnish into it.


Step 3

Spray it with the drying spray as this will cause it to separate.


Step 4

Immediately dip a nail into the water, over the part of nail varnish which looks the best.


Step 5

Wait a few seconds for the nail varnish to start drying and then collect up the spare with a cocktail stick. You can then lift the finger carefully out of the water.


Step 6
 
Cover over the design in a top coat to protect it.

Union Jack nails!

Union Jack Nails!

Rating: ***


Finished Nails!

Tools
I used:
  • Barry M Gelly Cotton 505
  • H&M Super Red
  • Barry M Gelly Blue Grape 417
  • La Femme Top Coat 118
  • Tape
  • Metal Tipped Small Paintbrush

Step 1

Paint your nails white. Between each step below, spray your nails with the Fast Dry Spray following the instructions on the can so you don't have to spend ages waiting for each layer to dry.


Step 2

Put tape on the four corners of your nails to paint a red cross one each one. Don't make it too wide or too narrow.



Step 3

Using the paintbrush, paint diagonal red lines in the four corners. Make sure they do not touch the red cross you did before.



Step 4

Using the paintbrush (clean the red off with nail varnish remover first), fill in the blue sections, leaving white around all the red. Don't worry too much about which bits of white should be thicker than others - it's too small to make much difference!




Finally, cover over the design in a top coat to protect it.
