How to do Nail Watermarbling!

Don't know what nail watermarbling is? It's using nail varnish and water to produce an unusual, pretty pattern on your nails.

  1. Wrap your fingers in sticky tape but leave the nails showing. This is to prevent nail varnish from going all over your fingers. You don't have to do this step but it makes the clean-up quicker.
  2. Get a plastic throw-away cup (in case nail varnish goes on it) and fill it with water - any temperature's fine.
  3. Get two or three different nail varnish colours. Drip a drop of one colour in, then another inside the circle of the first. Repeat until you have the desired amount of circles floating on the water.
  4. With a cocktail stick swirl the colours around into a pattern.
  5. Dip your first finger in the water - the nail in the nail varnish. Hold for about half a minute. While you're waiting take the cocktail stick and gather all the floating nail varnish around your finger up and wipe it on a piece of kitchen roll.
  6. Take your finger out, your sticky-tape off and voila!
  7. Repeat for all your fingers and have beautiful, unusual finger-nails!
