Gel Polish Marble | My New Favourite Way To Marble

[@kimberlyspiegelhalter467]

I’ve never seen anyone do a marble look this way. I am so impressed with it and am definitely going to use this method from now on. I am so glad I happened upon this video! I’ve definitely saved it! This video just popped up as a suggestion, I’m so glad I clicked on it!!! Thank you! 😊

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

Thats awesome! Thanks for the positive feedback 😀 I love how many ways you can do a marble. This is in my top 5 ways for sure! Have fun with it! Xx

[@AshleighMargaret]

This is hands down the best marble look I've seen, not to mention, this technique is so easy to follow. I'll definitely be trying this out today, and I'm so happy I found your channel!

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

Hi! Thanks so much. It makes me super happy to know that my videos help my fellow lovers of nails! I'd love to see them when you do it, please tag me or send me a message or something! Xo

Absolutely beautiful, so glad you covered this. I was wondering if you could dilute gel with IPA xxx

[@monicathomas1757]

Thank you!! I love marble nails and am just now beginning to do my own nails. I think I’ll be able to do this.

[@lalah2235]

One of the best marbles I’ve seen and I’ve watched sooooo many. You make it look real and take your time which I appreciate instead of others who kinda just slap it on and it doesn’t look as pleasing to the eye. Great job very pretty 👌🏻❤️💜❤️

[@Margarita_007]

After my third attempt were I am having the most trouble is the second layer with defining the lines of The marble

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

@@Margarita_007 try to just do exactly the same as the first layer, but keep in mind that it could be your last layer too so make the lines a bit thicker and more defined but uneven overall. Criss cross them over your first layer lines as well if you want. Without seeing your progress, it's difficult for me to help but hopefully you'll make sense of what I've just wrote 😜 message me some pics on Facebook or Instagram and I can see what's happening x facebook.com/nailsbycourtney

I was thinking of getting an individual nail holder for practice and premade sets and I see you use a stick. Love that haha but was wondering how you get the mail to stick to it? It there like a piece of foam tape or glue putty or something on the end of it? Thanks for this marble trick! Imma try it tonight!

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

Hey! I use the stands sometimes but I find the nails sit too close to the lights inside the lamp, so that's why I use sticks if i'm curing multiple nails. I just use blue tack to attach them to either the sticks or the stands. Xx

[@joyabaysinger4320]

Wow this looks awesome!! I'm excited to try this ♥️💅🏼

[@chelleytekilla]

I'm always so confused how people marble with alcohol and gel polish. I can only do it with acetone. When I use alcohol the polish becomes weird and grainy and I'm not able to move it as well as I can with acetone.

[@alanagracey4074]

That happened to me with acetone! Maybe it's the formula of the polish?

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

i have found that some gel polishes dont really dissolve in alcohol. Each product is different I guess :)

[@chatengwaosward8405]

I used Acetone and it worked.

Could you do another tutorial on how you’d do one of the marble ones like the one at the end the pink one so a marble without a white background?

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

Gosh I'm so sorry that I've only just seen your comment now. I did exactly the same technique, I just used pink as a base color and white as the marble color.

[@jossiebeautysalonandspa]

I got done for your vedios i like the tip toppings of the marble with top coat very creative nail marbles see you do it right for me💞

[@androsity1565]

I think you’d like acetone better. You don’t have to use as much and it moves the gel for you so it looks more organic and you don’t need so many layers so you’re not wasting.

[@stephaniemunch4498]

Can you also do this with regular nail polish instead of gel?

Not that I'm aware of . X

Excellent Thank you

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

[@danilachuk3548]

Newbie at using gel polish, but I've been told not to wipe off the inhibition layer with alcohol or the next layer of polish might lift. Does using alcohol to marble the lines not cause an issue with that?

[@NailswithCourtneyCrosbie]

No itll be fine. I regularly wipe the tacky layer for aspects of art and never ever have issues with the layers lifting.

[@josephinecassar4573]

You mentioned a detailing brush or which other kind of brush? I couldn't quite get it. Nice

Yea, a detailing brush, just a brush that is super thin and fine. You don't want alot of product to release from the brush onto the nail. Xo
