water marble nail art

i first found out about it when i stumbled upon this video

basically what you do is protect the skin around your nail with cellotape or hand lotion, drip a few colours of nail polish into a cup of water...

make some patterns using a toothpick, dip your nail in for 10 seconds, remove the excess nail polish from the water with a toothpick...

and voila! awesomeness! (i stole this picture from google images)
but of course my own attempts were lousy and not very obvious coz i have a limited supply of nail polish that is still watery
lousy picture of my second attempt. it was actually a bit more obvious than this. haha
anyway, i have failed at it but it's so cool! go to youtube to search for tutorials.
