Nails: Blue Confetti

I started these nails off by using two blue polishes using the 'bag dab' / saran wrap / cling film method which was very effective but then I used L'Oreal's Confetti top coat over the top which made the base not show up so it was a waste of effort!

GOT: Free Choice

With it being summer I thought I would go for something neon. I used two Color Club's Twiggie and Wham Pow which are both from April 2012. I used the bag dab / cling film / saran wrap method, the colours were so neon my camera had problems picking them up.

Tutorial: Marble Nails (Bag Dab / Saranwrap / Clingfilm)

This is a dry marble technique, it is very similar to the clingfilm / saran wrap method. I use a plastic carrier bag to make this effect, it has been dubbed as 'the bag dab' by a friend!

What Do I Use?

Two Different Polishes

Carrier / Plastic Bag

Top Coat

Clean Up Brush

First paint your base and allow it to dry.

Then paint the next colour on top, working one nail at a time. Then dab the carrier / plastic bag on the nail until you get the desired effect.

Yes this is a bit messy but worth the end effect, you can go subtle or contrasting with the two polishes you choose. Go on to the next nail until you have finished all nails. Go ahead and top coat the nails.

Then clean up the fingers and cuticle areas and you are done.

Here are some nails I have done using this technique:
