Water Marble Water Decals

*press sample*

Born Pretty Store is my go to for all things nail art. They have a great selection of all kinds of fun embellishments, stickers, glitter, polish, and tools. One of my favorites are their water decals! They are so easy to use and relatively quick for the end result you get. 

To use water decals, all you do is soak the design in water for maybe 10 seconds or so and it will slide off the paper in a super thin sheet. Simply place on dry polish, press down and finish with top coat.

I admit I'm terrible at the actual water marbling technique, so any sort of help (cheat) I can get, I'll take! haha This design reminds me of the look of a water marble and it's so cute!



This mani lasted as long as any other mani would for me, another plus with the water decals.

You can find this exact design as well as other styles *here*. Get an extra 10% off with my code just for you guys: AMG10.

Have you tried water decals before?

My First Water Marble!

Hi readers! I slept in so late today! haha I guess that's the beauty of the weekend. :)

I have been aware of the water marble technique for quite some time and have even attempted it with Dustin a few times and it was always a big, fat fail! Finally, Dustin figured out a way to make it work, and here is our first water marble! 

Colors used: Color Club Pretty in Platinum and one of Dustin's frankens, Black Raven.

This is still messy looking because we didn't use tape or Vaseline to protect my skin from the polish. Pretty sure we know better now! 


Then, to help smooth things out and make it all a little more uniform, we put CND Violet Shimmer on top. This is my favorite of the 2 looks...and I think Violet Shimmer has grown on me since I first got it and now want all the CND Effects! haha


So there you have it! Maybe our next attempt will be a little neater. :P Have you guys tried water marbling before? <3
