#31DC2013 Blue With Sinful Colors Endless Blue And Sweet Nothing Watermarble


Happy Thursday!  I hope your week is going quickly, especially since it is short with the holiday.  As for me, work has been especially tough because I'm covering for four people who are out this week.  Oy vey!  Luckily my mom is in town to help watch the baby.

Blue is once again becoming a color that I enjoy using, so today's challenge gives me the opportunity to play with some colors.  I was inspired by the instagram watermarble queen mucking fusser's fishtail technique and tried to replicate it with Sinful Colors Endless Blue and Sweet Nothing.  After several tries, I finally got a semi passable full mani.

I still need some practice with the technique, but mucking fusser has some great easy to follow tutorials that provided some really useful tricks.  The most important thing with watermarbling is finding the perfect polish - it can't be too thick otherwise it won't spread across the water.  These Sinful Colors worked really well, especially Endless Blue.  Sweet Nothing was a little too dense and thick and didn't want to spread out as quickly, but it still worked well in the marble.  Endless Blue is definitely a staple in my collection and if you don't have it, I recommend getting it with backups!
