Smoky Dry Marble French Tutorial

Hi  lovelies, I'm sorry for my lack of posting, but I got capped for the past 3 days and my net was literally non-responsive - no page was loading and I mean NONE! Now that I'm uncapped, I have the highly requested tutorial for you all!

Remember that smoky dry marble mani I did a short while ago? I have the tutorial for you today :) A bit of a crap job I'd say, it works best when the nail is level, but I had to do it slanted (due to position of my camera) so you can see what I was doing.

Nevertheless, enjoy! I will be back later today with the colour blocking tutorial which I will edit very soon :)

  7. I tried this yesterday. I ended up using an actual needle, but I just didn't like the way it turned out. My smoke lines seemed to thick no matter what I tried. This is something that might take me a few try's, so I'm going to keep trying, because I love this look. Thanks for the tutorial :).

    1. I don't like using the needle cause it drags too little out! Try using a very fine dotting tool and dragging on the SURFACE rather than down to the nail if that made sense :) Goodluck, hope it turns out well!
