This motto applies also to a marble manicure. The marble nail design has been the go-to choice for a statement manicure. Whether you are into minimalism or a bit of bling, a marbled manicure is the perfect choice for your next look. 

Marble Nail Designs

The swirly nail design has been a mainstay for nail art designs, and can be created at home or at the salon.

The water marble nails is an easy process to create marble nails at home if you need a quick fix. Clean you nails, push your cuticles back and apply a base color.

Layer drops of nail polish in a cup of room temperature water. Black and white nail polish are a classic combination, or add some pink for an unexpected color.

Swirl to create your desired effect, and then, gently dip your finger into the water so that your nail is covered by the design.

Once you’ve finished all of your nails, use a brush or cotton swab dipped into nail polish remover to clean up around the nail.  Apply a layer of top coat to seal in the design.
