12 Days of Christmas Tutorials: Day 4 Christmas Water marble

Hey! I'm not going to make any promises about catching up on my tutorials any more, because life keeps getting in the way! I'm only one day late, so one of these days, I will have two tutorials in a day. I'm hopefully going to get my hair cut today for the holidays! I'm getting my side bangs back :)

For this design you will need:
  • Base and top coat
  • 2+ christmas polishes
  • A cup with filtered or bottled water in it
  • A toothpick
  • Clean up supplies

 Step one: Pick at least 2 christmas colored polishes. The best colors are red, green, a nude, or gold.

 Step two: Paint your nails white or a light nude.

Step three: Drop some polish in the cup like a normal design.

 Step three: Put a drop of polish in a different part of the water

Step four: Continue dropping polish in the water, they can overlap if you want to.

 Step five: Continue with the drops until you have filled up the water.

Step six: Take your toothpick and swirl the polish around. If you can avoid the first drop, but it doesn't make that much of a difference if you don't.

Step seven: Dip your nail into the part of the design you like best, then take a toothpick or q-tip and clean up the excess polish on the water. Keep your finger in while doing that.

 Step eight: Carefully pull your finger out of the water.

Step nine: Clean up your finger with a q-tip and acetone. Then use a brush and acetone for your cuticles. Add top coat and your done!





Thanks for reading and have a great day! :)
