31 Day Nail Art Challenge - Day 20: Water Marble

So I know that it has become pretty standard for me to post these challenges late, but this time, it wasn't for lack of time or being tired that I didn't post on time. I didn't post because water marbling is in fact, the worst thing in the world. At the very least the most infuriating thing. File these under "never want to do again!"

I've spent at least 6 hours over the past 3 days trying to get some semblance of water marbling on my fingers to post for the challenge. I think I can safely say that water marbling is not, and will never be, a part of my repertoire. I hate it. I bow down to all the ladies who continually produce beautiful works of water marbling art, but I can't do it! It's so frustrating and I just waste polish! I didn't even try to do my thumb - I'm a failure! ;) 

Pool Party at the Lulu*s Blog

Happy Monday, loves! Today I have another tutorial for the Lulu*s blog! This week their theme was "pool party" and we went a bit literal with it to make it look like a pool! This was actually my first attempt at water marbling and I know I have A LOT of room for improvement, but it was awesome to see that I could actually do it if I put my mind to it! I am in no way an expert, but I put together the tutorial based on my experience with creating this look. Be sure to check it out on their blog :) 

 I actually did this twice and wasn't sure which one I liked more...they are both incredibly similar so you  maybe you wouldn't have noticed if I didn't say anything ;) 

Happy Polishing! :)
