100: My Valentines day nails

Hi Girls!

I hope you've all had a very lovely Valentines day with your loved ones. I just wanted to share my Valentines day gel nails.




I sculpted my nails using clear gel and used a pink glitter gel. Then I added crystal rhinestones and heart shaped spangles to complete the look. Hope you guys like it :)

98: Valentines day nails #4

Hello Blogger Friends :)

Sorry I haven't updated in a while I've just been learning lots of new stuff at work. Anyways I wanted to post another Valentines day nail sample for you guys. This one is very shiny with big rhinestones and glitter polish and best of all it's very simple to create. I hope you guys like it!

Here are the products I used..



OPI's Alpine Snow and China Glaze's Ruby Pumps.


Large red, pink, and clear rhinestones and silver bullion beads.


First off I painted 3 coats of OPI's Alpine snow for my base colour. Let dry.


After the base colour dried I used China Glaze's Ruby Pumps and painted on a heart shape in the middle of the nail. I wasn't worried about painting it on perfectly because I planned on using the silver bullion beads to outline the heart to give it more shape.



To finish it off I added large pink, red, and clear rhinestones around the whole design :)


mmm sparkly!

97: My first video :)

Hi Guys!

I created my first video last night and uploaded it on to youtube. Creating the video was actually the easy part because uploading took me 2.5 hours! If you do watch it please watch it with the 480p resolution which is the better resolution.

Since this is my first video I was a bit nervous so there were a lot of brain farts and random fillers such as 'ums, basicallys, and soooooooo' , please excuse that and I hope to get more comfortable in front of a camera from now on. Also I didn't decide to record my face into the video because I find it funny sometimes when I'm watching other peoples videos and all of a sudden my computer would be buffering the image and their faces are just stuck in time and either they always have one eye blinking or their face would look weird overall.

Here is the link to my youtube account: www.youtube.com/user/marblenailstutorials :)

I will most likely be making a video and uploading every Saturday and I'll be sure to let you guys know on my blog. I started off with a general video for my first one which is 'How To Remove Your Nail Polish'.

Please give my little youtube account lots of love by commenting, rating and subscribing if you can. I'll be sure not to neglect it and have at least 1 update a week for you guys! Also please let me know what you would like to see and I will try my best to make a video for you :D
