Hi all you new lovelies!
This weekend I wrote a 3 page list of nail art techniques and designs I'd like to do at some point, here's the first one I can cross off my list :) .... Water Spotting, inspired by the OPI Black Spotted polish. WS is like a different take on Water Marbling.
I've been unable to find any spray hand sanitiser, which most of the tutorials called for. So I found another one that uses nail polish remover and a toothbrush instead, I've inserted the tutorial (not mine) that I used, for you guys to recreate if you'd like :). It's quite easy!
- 2 coats of China Glaze 'White on White'
- Thin coat of random polishes.
1. China Glaze 'Entourage' (Green) - £4.99 from Nail Polish Direct
2. Color Club 'Almost Famous' (Yellow) - £7.99 for a pack of 7 CC's from TK Maxx
3. Color Club 'Chelsea Girl' (Blue)
4. Color Club 'Wham! Pow!' (Orange)
5. Color Club 'Poptastic' (Pink)
- Avon 'Rapid Black' for water spots - £2.50 from Avon
- 1 coat of Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat
China Glaze 'White on White' is probably my favourite white polish but I found it quite difficult to find somewhere to buy it from online that shipped within the UK. It's opaque with 2 coats and goes on nicely.

(These colours are actually a LOT brighter in person than on these photos)
Okay, so mine didn't really turn out that well but I was being lazy and it was my first time. Practice makes perfect ;)
