notd: how to do a marble effect without using water

hey everyone :D
today for my nail of the day i tried to do marble effect on my nails, but i couldnt be bothered with all the who har of the water and such so i just decided to try it without the water and here's how it went:

so what you need is:
a base colour (i choose barry m black)
and a marble colour (i choose barry m mint green)
and i orange stick or cotton wool bud something to stir the polish with


what you need to do is paint all your nails with one coat of the base colour and let it dry
then once that has dried apply another coat of the base to the finger you want to start with

before it dyes add a couple of dots of the marble colour into the nail

then using an orange stick swirl the marble colour with the base to create a marbled effect,
it took me awhile to get used to it but i got the hang of it by the end

i added abit of the 17 glitter top coat over the top as well just to see what it looked like :D


 hope you enjoyed it? have you tried either of the marbled effects, what do you think?
see you soon xx
