The best thing is, these are super easy to do with some good jelly polishes. I'd like to make a proper tutorial for the watercolour and drip effect in the future, so let me know if that's something you'd be interested in!
Polishes:
Left to right: American Apparel "Manhattan Beach", "Summerland Beach", "Pacific Beach", "Redondo Beach", "Moonlight Beach", OPI "Don't Touch My Tutu", Sally Hansen "White Out" |
- Start off with a white base. I used two coats of a sheer white, OPI "Don't Touch My Tutu" to keep the transparency, but I don't think a solid white base would make a difference with all the layers we'll be doing.
- Take a jelly colour, and make random strokes and splodges.
- Repeat with all of your colours until your entire nail is covered.
- Paint over everything with one coat of a sheer white.
I loved it so much, I went for a full-blown drip mani.
Again, please let me know if you'd like to see a full tutorial for this! I'll be back next week with another "Alice in Wonderland" design. Happy Friday, and have a great weekend!
YES!! Please do a tutorial - this is so cool!!! Could this pass for watermarble? I'm doing the 31 Day Challenge and dreading watermarble day - anything I can do to get out of it is a-ok in my books :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha I'm not sure this would count as watermarbling xD I really admire bloggers that can stick with these challenges...such dedication! I think taping off your nails and having a smaller surface area (like a shot glass) for the water will make watermarbling go by much easier. Good luck! :)
DeleteWow this looks great! I'm lovin it! <3
