I was brainstorming for nail art ideas and I decided to do a water marble mani...
I looove the smell of this mani...haha I must sound like a weirdo but the wicked sweet collection is great! even for a water marble mani it still smells fruity and sweet..
I used the Wicked Sweet collection from Color Club I used- Raspberry Rush, Gimme a Grape Big Kiss, I Always Get My Man-darin, Yum Gum, and Wicked Sweet for the marbling and the base white color is White on by Sally Hansen. For this water marbling mani I used an old detergent cup, tape, toothpicks, a napkin to wipe on, and a q-tip to clean up the mess after...
This is one quick layer of Sally Hansen- White On..it doesn't have to be perfect, and then I taped off the rest of my nail so that the polish wouldnt be all over my skin..
I dripped the polish in the cup of water and then using the toothpick I dragged out the design that I wanted...
I dipped my nail into the design and then cleaned up the rest of the polish before slowly pulling out my nail... I purposely didnt tape off my thumb so you can see the polish that can get stuck on your skin if you dont tape off or pull away the polish before you pull out your nail...
Pinky nail...blue, pink, and purple...
Ring finger...orange (idk why it turned out yellow-y) blue, and pink..
Middle finger- magenta, orange, blue (i had minor bubbles so I dabbed a toothpick into the magenta to fix those areas...you can kind of tell where I had to fix...)
Pointer finger...i didnt like this finger >.< it was pink blue yellow and magenta..
Thumb finger- Orange( again it spread out to look yellow-y) blue, pink, and magenta...
Voila!~~ it smells ah-mazing too ;)Pin It

Coffee and Chocolate inspired Watermarble...
The other day blogger was down and it threw me for a loop...I did this water marble mani the other day and it reminds me of chocolate or coffee...yum!
I loove the shimmer that was also in these colors...the effect was nicer then I expected...
This is what my set up looked like...I used tape to make things easier, toothpicks (you can also use your orange stick), a tissue, a cup of water, color club polishes, and my white sally hansen polish..
The four colors I used were from the Untamed Luxury collection from Color Club (from L to R) Nothing but Truffle, Pretty in Platinum, Positively Posh, and Soft as Cashmere...
I started with 1 coat of White On by Sally Hansen...
So in the cup of water I dropped in dots of my polish and waited for it to spread out before I dropped in the next color...
Then using the toothpick I drew in the design I liked then slowly dipped in my finger and used the toothpick to wipe away the excess polish before I slowly took out my finger...
This is what my initial design looked like...I didnt tape off my ring finger to show more of the design and to show that once again taping off your finger makes clean up waay easier and faster...
I wasn't satisfied with how my pinky turned out because there were air bubbles in the middle.. (can you see??) so I decided to redo it...
see? I changed the pinky ;) I like how you can see more of the 4 colors in this version of my pinky...
Close up of my thumb...
Close up of my pointer finger...
My middle finger...
My ring finger...
and my pinky finger...
Voila~
Speaking of chocolate and coffee..there's a coffee shop that I really like to go to study and their Hazelnut lattes are soo yummy ^_^ The shop is named Glazers Coffee and its a cozy little place and the barista is super nice..he also does Ah-mazing latte art... here are some shots of my lattes that I ordered before.....
