Essie Watermable starting point, still in the cup |
As I wanted to have more control of each nail, I used the decal method. Which means that I did the marble as normal in the water, but instead of dipping my fingers in the water, I allowed it to dry completely over night, before sticking it to my nails.
This also allowed me to make more than one design, and rather spread it out when I was wearing them.
I used a handful of polishes for this design, and they where all ESSIE polishes.
ESSIE - Navigate Her
ESSIE - Mojito Madness
ESSIE - School of Hard Rocks
ESSIE - Turquoise & Caicos

As one of the nails didn't turn out the way I had planned due to bad positioning of the decal, I made a flower using NYC - Flat Iron Green. First I stamped using MASH 46, but it didn't turn out quite the way I wanted, so I traced it with a brush, and made the flower a bit bigger, using an angled brush to make the petals the way i wanted.
I am quite pleased with the end result. A lot of work went into this manicure, even though it kinda look effortless...
