It's been quite a while since I've done water marble nails. The main reason I haven't done it in a while is because it's a little time consuming and messy. I've been wanting to do one for a while now and finally got the time. There is a great tutorial by Pack a Punch Polish. For this design, I used White On by Sally Hansen, Fuchsia by Pupa, Orange by Pupa, Green With Envy by Sally Hansen, and Blue Me Away by Sally Hansen.

I started with a base of white. When doing water marble, starting with a white base makes the colours much brighter.
When choosing my polishes, I tried several different colours. Some polishes just don't spread out when you drip them into the water. To increase your success, use filtered water that is at room temperature. Some people tape around their nails to keep their skin from getting polish all over it but I just find this time consuming. Nail polish remover and a shower cleans up your fingers just fine. When it came to dripping my polishes into the water I went "pink, orange, green, blue" 3 times. Here's the final product!
My ring finger being more orange than blue was a happy accident (an unintentional accent nail). I am so excited about how these turned out!
Happy Painting!
Love Kate, xo
