Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare your nails.
- File your nails to your desired shape.
- Buff the nail surface for a smooth finish.
- Apply a base coat to protect your nails.
2
Create the marbled effect.
- Apply a light blue polish to the entire nail and let it dry.
- On a mixing palette, drop several lines of dark blue and white polish.
- Using a nail art brush or toothpick, gently swirl the colors together without fully mixing.
3
Apply the marbling to your nails.
- Quickly dip the nail into the mixed polish or use a brush to apply it across the nail, aiming for a wave effect.
- Repeat for each nail, cleaning tools as necessary.
4
Add the glitter accent.
- Choose one or two nails to add a silver glitter polish.
- Apply it at the base or as a French tip effect.
- Use a small brush for precision if needed.
5
Finish with a top coat.
- Once the design is completely dry, apply a clear top coat to seal the look and add shine.
- Allow the top coat to dry completely.
Pro Tips
Practice the marbling technique on a nail wheel before applying it to your nails.
Work quickly when marbling to prevent the polish from drying.
Use a clean-up brush dipped in remover to fix any mistakes around the cuticles for a neater finish.
Experiment with color combinations to personalize the design.
