This is Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Water Marbling

Hey all, today I have for you my Halloween Water Marbling attempt..I have water marbled with some success before, but the waters of marbling..she be finicky and unpredictable, just like the ocean. So I do have a halloweeny type water marble for you today..but it isn't the best in the world as I had ALL sorts of trouble with making patterns in the polish..it all just wanted to lift out in one piece whilst making the design..argh.

The colors I chose for the Halloween theme to water marble were, Kleancolor White as a base and China Glaze Liquid Leather, Kleancolor Metallic Purple, Butter London Slapper and China Glaze Japanese Koi and here is the (dubious?) results.

I quite like how the ring finger turned out!

 The thumb water marble swirls are pretty good too! :)
Not a complete nail art fail..but it was a struggle to get to this stage..I usually have a bit more patience but it wasn't in play today.

Butter London Slapper!

Super quick post tonight..so late, sorry! Worked today and time just got away from me. So, no ado nor chitty chatness. Facts: Mani with Butter London's Slapper and Tart with a Heart (woot!). Does it go on like Butter, yes! Is Slapper Awesome? Yes! Is Tart with a Heart super special..probably not, but I don't have any gold holo glitter topcoat. Where did I get them? At a Health food shop in Melbourne! Is that weird? Kinda! Did I use a peel off base coat? Yes, Essence Ready for Boarding one. Did it try to peel off today without me trying to, yes! Why? I waited like half an hour for it to dry due to distraction and I've learn you shouldn't. The polish didn't bond to the peel off very well. Apply polish as soon as the peel off base coat goes clear. Am I happy with me pictures? No! The vibrancy really didn't translate. Photos? Yes..below :)

Sorry for the different toned skin..I was playing with tuning the colors to try and get a more color true representation of the polish..kinda fail! LOL. You can see especially on my ring finger that the base coat is really wanting to lift to peel off. It didn't totally let go, but I wouldn't get another day out this mani!

Also a shout out to Pretty Serious cosmetics. They are having a %50 off sale on makeup and polish for the Hello World Collection! Awesome :) Go grab yourself a bargain on gorgeous Aussie polish!
