Miss_Sock Guest Post - Space Unicorn

Hey guys! So I was on holiday last week but you won't have known as I scheduled my posts to publish while I was away :) Normally people have guest posts while they are away but I did it a bit differently. This week I have two guest post while I get back into the swing of things after my lovely holiday to Tenerife, but more on that soon! Today's post is by the lovely Jen from Miss_Sock.

Hi guys, Sock here!

So the lovely Bethany kindly invited me to guest post on her blog and of course I jumped at the chance!  I wanted to do something fun, but living up to all the wonderful designs that Bethany has created – so I settled on these super cute watermarbled and reverse stamped Space Unicorn nails!

I am loving the Models Own Soft Pop collection, especially for watermarbling. I met Rebecca from Baby Mama Nails last month and we had cocktails and then decided to go shopping! So we ended up in a Models Own Bottle shop and I got the full Soft Pop collection :)

40 Great Nail Art Ideas - Water marble and Glitter topper

I don't tend to do water marbles often as I'm not very good at them but this weeks Crumpets Nails Tarts theme was glitter topper/flakie and my pattern prompt was water spotting/water marble. So I gave water marbling another try but used a different technique.

Water Marble mani

So I recently bought the Pure Color 7 water marble tool from What's Up Nails as I had seen a lot of water marble manis that had been done using this tool and they looked awesome!

Chevron Water Marble Mani

The theme for week three of the Weekly Nail Art Challenge on Instrgram for April was Pastel Chevrons. This is the first time I have wrote about my mani for the WNAC but I loved this so much I just wanted to share it with you guys. 

My First Successful Water Marble

Wooooo...I have successfully done a water marble! I first tried a water marble about 2 years ago when I was just getting obsessed with nails... it did not go well. I couldn't get the polish to anchor to the sides of my glass so I couldn't draw any nice design in the polish and the polish I had was, to put it politely, crap! So now I have better products I thought I would give it a second shot and hallelujah it worked!
