This technique is for those who like more realistic marble designs. For this design use alcohol ink to give more marble effect. You need three colors to make this design.

Step 1: First apply base color or base coat and then cure that.

Tip: This is going to leave oily or sticky layer which will help you when you will apply the alcohol ink on top. Alcohol ink stains so you need to make sure you don’t get it on your skin or clothes.

Step 2: Now drop the first color randomly on the nail, you can see that it will blend.

Step 3: Then take your second color and then do the same thing, drop a couple of drops here and there, connect it with the first shade.

Step 4: Then use 99 alcohol and a small pointed brush. Then dip your brush in the alcohol and wipe excess alcohol away. then use the end of the brush and blend the edges of the alcohol ink. For this soften up the lines.

Step 5: Now drag some of those areas to create little marble veins, and while doing this wipe the excess off your brush and then dip it in alcohol again and then draw little lines. Make sure that it looks natural.

Then continue blending and don’t worry if it smudges out too much, it’s not supposed to be perfect. And if at any stage you feel like you need a little bit more color or you’ve wiped away too much you can just add on some more alcohol ink on top.

This trick is to create light areas and dark areas, and give more dimension look. and as you’re using the brush you can drag to create these little veins.

Step 6: Now take your third color and drop a little bit here and there and then again use your brush to just blend.

Step 7: Now add some gold flakes to it, this is a great trick to cover up any mistakes. maybe for some areas it’s too dark or maybe too light or it’s feeling a little bit empty, you can add some gold flakes to it.

Step 8: Now cure it with UV light.

Step 9: Lastly, apply Top coat to seal it.

This design is bit difficult but It will give you a perfect marble look.

This design is for realistic looking marble nail art.

Step 1: For this design use pink nude color as base color and cure it with UV light, don’t wipe off that sticky layer. You will need that for next step.

Step 2: Now apply a chrome aurora powder on top. Rub that along with the center of the nail randomly.

Step 3: Then apply base coat to seal that.

Step 4: Next take milk white gel color and use your brush to randomly draw some wavy thick lines or patches, and cure that.

Step 5: Then take your white art gel and a liner brush and then start drawing white veins, if you are having trouble then do it according to the image.

Step 6: Then take a clean brush and use corner of the brush to smudge out one side of those veins. You should keep one side clean and one side smudge because this will give you dimension look. Then cure it.

Step 7: Next take deeper pink gel, paint on wavy lines or patches and it doesn’t have to be perfect and don’t worry if it covers any of those veins we added, and then cure that.

Step 8: Now add some aurora flakes, because the gel should be a little bit sticky after you cure it, the flakes will stick easily on the surface.
