Pastel Water Marble Featuring Renaissance Cosmetics Spring Found Me!

Hello everybody! Today I have a pastel water marble look to share to match the glitters in Renaissance Cosmetics Spring Found Me!

I've been cleaning and redecorating my room lately, as well as getting rid of tons of clothes. I am quite the disorganized and untidy person (not dirty though) and I have a lot of trouble getting rid of things. I'm trying to change my ways because I really love being in my room when it's tidy and so does one of my cats; Dmitri (he doesn't like clutter). I am an avid thrift shopper and I have a ton of clothes, but there's also a ton I don't wear anymore or have never worn. I've gone through a small portion of my clothes and I already have almost three buckets worth to get rid of! :)

Onto the nails!

To start, I applied two coats of Color Club French Tip as a base for the water marble. I bought this polish because Cristine of Simply Nailogical thinks it's the best white creme, but I'm definitely liking Cirque Carpe Diem more! In two coats French Tip still wasn't opaque, though I didn't swap out the brush for a thicker one like Cristine suggested.

On my other nails, I went in with three coats of Renaissance Cosmetics Spring Found Me! It was super easy to work with and all of the pastel microglitters in it are so adorable!

Next, I coated my skin up to my first knuckle in Bliss Kiss Simply Peel for easier cleanup. I then did a water marble with the following four American Apparel polishes: Coney Island (pink), L'Esprit (purple), California Trooper (nude) and The Valley (blue)!

After a bit of dry time I added a coat of Essie Good To Go to all my nails and I was done!

I kind of think water marble nails as accent nails are about 1000X less cool than doing your whole hand, so I think water marble nails are an all or nothing kind of thing. Next time I'll do all my nails! What do you guys think of this look or this Renaissance Cosmetics polish? I'm loving the brand already!

Thanks so much for having a look everyone! I'll be back with another Renaissance Cosmetics polish pretty soon! Happy Friday! =)

Rainbow Water Marble Using the Girly Bits Hoop! There It Is Collection!

Yo yo yo my lovely people! Today I have some rainbow water marble nails to share!

This is another late night post because I'm really trying to post often but I seem to be quite busy in the day. Let's hop right in because there are a lot of pictures!

I started off with two coats of My Boyfriend Scales Walls for a white base. I then went in with Simply Peel Liquid Latex Barrier and applied a thin coat all around my nails up to my first knuckle.

Next, I used Thump Your Melons (orange), These Hips Don't Lie (yellow), It's Hoop To Be Square (green), I've Got High Hoops (blue), Hip Hoop Hurray (purple) and You're My Hooper Hero (pink) for the water marble. I could be wrong about a few of those though because it has been a while!

After peeling off the Simply Peel and more clean up, I applied a coat of top coat.

I think I wore these for about five days and I quite enjoyed doing so! These polishes water marbled very well and I will definitely try this again with a different design!

I actually preferred how my right hand came out this time (above). What do you guys think?

What do you think about water marbles in general or this lovely collection I keep using? I'd love to know!

Thanks so much for having a look everyone! I'll be back with more nail art very soon! Happy Sunday!

Springy Water Marble with Purple Flowers for Nail Crazy in April!

Hey everyone! Today I have the first water marble nails I've done in years to share!

Today's post will be a bit of a quick one because I need to get back to studying! One final exam down, three to go! I can't wait until a little over a week from now when I'll be free for over four months! How crazy is that? That in itself should be enough to motivate me to study. When I put it that way I feel like I can work hard until I'm finished! Somehow I've just motivated myself, that's a first haha :P.

Anyways, onto the nails!

I've been using a cup a little bit bigger than a shot glass to do my water marbles, and because it's quite a small glass, the colours stay so opaque that you don't need a white base! So what you see here is just the colours themselves over the base coat I always use (Orly Bonder)!

For the water marble I used all American Apparel colours: T-shirt (white), The Valley (dusty blue/aqua), Mount Royal (navy blue) and Crescent Heights (chartreuse green).

Because I'm a water marbling newbie, I bumped my ring finger nail either with the toothpick or onto the inside of the glass (I don't remember which, too much studying :P). Because I remembered that I had this prompt coming up, I decided to add flowers overtop of where I messed up my nail. I used China Glaze Plur-ple for the petals and American Apparel Neon Yellow for the centres of the flowers.

After that, I just went in with a coat of top coat and I was finished! I feel like these came out quite well, especially after not doing this technique for a long time!

What do you guys think of this look? Also, are any of you guys writing finals soon/now? I'd love to hear in the comments!
