NOTD: Strawberry Swirls and Silver Filigree

Tuesday, July 13, 2010

Two nail posts in a row?! Is this turning into a nail blog? Mimi, are you turning into a nailphile? No no, rest assured I'm not! My skin has been breaking out lately, so I haven't had the heart to post FOTD pictures (they'd scare you away) and it's all because of my new foundation. I'll tell you about it soon! I need to do a proper review!

This is my second water marbling attempt and you know what? I'm proud of the improvements I've made! I read up on water marbling tips and it went much smoother this time. I used water that was room temperature to keep the surface from skinning too quickly and Vaseline around my cuticles for easy clean off. Can't wait to do it again!

I used one coat Seche Clear and one coat of OPI Mauve-lous Memories as the base. The marble itself is Mauve-lous, Sally Hansen Lacquer Shine Dazzling and Confetti Silver Slippers.
