Watermarble Nails

I have always been scared of watermarbling. I have tried it a few times and always had such crappy results. Today was the day that all changed. After a few trials I came to realize that China Glaze doesn't spread worth a darn, Opi and Color Club work great, and contrary to what I have heard you can use water right out of the tap.

I did two coats of Color Club(Cc) Blue-Ming on my pointer, ring, and pinkie finger. I painted two coats of Cc Wicker Park on my thumb and middle finger. I definitely like how brighter it looks over top of Wicker Park. After marbling I used Seche Vite as my top coat. I used liquid latex around my cuticles to help with clean up and I have to say that I feel like it made the whole process harder. When I was trying to clean the surface up the polish kept clinging to the latex. I would have to be a bit forceful to detach it, which made me nervous about hitting the design.

Macro of thumb

I hope you all have a wonderful day!
