So as I mentioned yesterday, I'm doing day 19 and day 20 in the wrong order. Mainly because I was dreading the watermarble and just wanted to get it out of the way and secondly because I'm now not going to be at home for a month. I've brought all my nail varnishes with me (yes, all 300+ of them D:) because I'm a crazy lady but I wanted to be sure I could do them with the materials I have at home + my sisters help (which just meant she stood there and watched basically, but still).
So here you go, watermarble nails. I HATE WATERMARBLING. I was surprised I even managed to get a pattern this time, normally it just sinks to the bottom, although they're still awful. I also made them matte, to give them a little bit of awesomeness, if not much. Though I do quite like the thumb, I smudged the corner which is why there's some random dots there but the whole frenchie effect is pretty cool, a total accident but nevertheless still cool.
You only get one photo because I'm so ashamed. If it wasn't part of a challenge I wouldn't even post them, so consider yourselves (un)lucky to get one ;)

Your thumb turned out amazing! I love that!
ReplyDeleteAww they're not bad... I like the color combo and the thumbnail is really great, nice accident!!
ReplyDeleteThe color scheme you chose is beautiful. The thumb design turned out pretty awesome.
ReplyDeleteI think your marbling turned out great!
ReplyDeleteI have tried water marbling on a few different occasions and it never turns out the way I want it to. I often look on-line for ways other people try it, and I find the best thing is to use a fast drying polish like China Glaze, and not to mix it around in the water too much. Because that causes it to break apart, fold over and sink to the bottom (which really sucks!) And I don't find that tape around your finger helps keep the mess off your skin, it's just a waste of time.
But congrats on your outcome, it's beautiful and I love the colors! :)
it's great!! i love the colour scheme too! you're so talented!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE that you made this matte! For some reason it reminds me of mixing colored clay when I was younger! Haha :)
ReplyDeletei hate watermarbling too! the colors you used here look really awesome though, especially with the matte finish!
ReplyDeleteThat accidental french is the best :D .
ReplyDeleteThese are actually stunning. I've never succesfully marble'd
