Steps to create the perfect marble nails
First, you need to begin preparing the nails! Make sure you clean the nails so that the surface is clear to add polish and conduct the treatment. Use a cotton swab to remove any remaining nail paint from the last treatment! You should also gently push the cuticles behind. However, make sure they are properly hydrated before you do so! You may use cuticle oil for this purpose.
Application of the base color
After you have prepared your nails and they are ready for the treatment, you can begin with the application of the base coat. Ideally, we make use of white polish to cover the nails and give a canvas for designing the marble decor. The design comes out best on the white base rather than the bare nails and hence application of the base coat is essential here.
How to make the water marble design
You need to take some water in a glass to create this marble design. The water should be present at room temperature. Drop dots of nail polish on the water and allow them to spread in consecutive rings from the common center. Using a toothpick you can swirl the polish and create different patterns for the marble design. Don't let the water be too cold or the polish will dry off and you won't get the effect. Mostly, three colors are used to create the marble effect although you may opt for more.
Dip your fingers into the swirl
To acquire the marble effect, you should dip your fingers in the swirl and then gently lift it. With the help of a fine brush, you can remove the extra around the edge and on the fingers. For easier removal, make sure you have applied some oil on the skin.
Finally, apply the top coat
Once you are done cleaning the edge, you can now let your nails be coated with a clear polish on top. This will give a shiny look to your nails. To make your marble effect last longer it is essential to have it protected by a top coat.
With that, your marble nails are ready to go. Decorative and beautiful, you are surely going to love how vibrant and enigmatic your nails appear. Follow a pattern and get your nails done today.
