Drag marble galaxy - Artsy Wednesday

 
 
 
If you google galaxy photos you'll see that galaxies look very different, so I decided to make somewhat untraditional galaxy nails using dragmarbling in this weeks Artsy Wednesday challenge.
The base colors are dark blue: Essie Midnight Cami, black A-England Camelot and the cobalt blue is China Glaze Eyes Like Sapphires. The galaxy's are created with a thin brush and a variety of glitter polishes and a few acrylic colors, and the top coat is Seche Vite.
Check out what the other girls in Artsy Wednesday did in this weeks challenge
Michelle - Lab Muffin,  Alanna - Pretty Purple Polish, Tif - Polished Genious, Lyndsey - Nails by Ms. Lizard, Melanie - Nail & Polish, Jessica - Beauty Gnome,  Emily - An Accent Nail, Kamen - Kaka Beauty Blog, Catrine - Unnakednails

Hvis du googler galakse billeder, vil du opdage at galakser ser meget forskellige ud, så derfor besluttede jeg i denne uges Artsy Wednesday at lave lidt utradionelle glaksenegle ved at bruge drag marbling (man drypper dråber af andre farver i den våde lak og trækker dem i minstre med en pensel eller nål).
Grundfarverne er mørk blåsort: Essie Midnight Cami, sort A-England Camelot og den koboltblå er China Glaze Eyes Like Sapphires. Til galakserne brugte jeg flere forskellige glitterlakker, nogle få akrylfarver og en tynd pensel. Toplakken er Seche Vite!

    1. Thank you so much BeautyShades, the trick is to have the polish really wet when you drip polish on it and swirl...
