paisley video tutorial



Paisley is the first design I did with my original Rio Nail art pens, I now use a very thin design brush and dotting tool. For this particular sweet pink design (perfect for valentines day) I used Avon Pink Creme Nail Enamel and B. Complete Red Nail Polish, I topped it off with Cheeky's Matte Polish.

nail art: an easier way to marble

I have now (well my dad has now) invested in a tripod so I can film all my tutorials from now without the scary balance of my phone on a stack of books! SO without further a due I give to you my dry marbling tutorial!


This design is a super easy way of getting an interesting 'how did you do that?!' design. It works great as a feature nail and you can use just 2 colours or as many as you want!

I used:
  • Models Own Polish in Pukka Purple
  • Barry M Nail Paint in Matt White
  • GOSH Cosmetics Polish in Deep Purple
  • Maybelline Super Stay 7 Days Polish in Crystal Clear
  • 1 small dotting tool (smallest you can find - a needle or anything sharp & pointy can work)

Tips:
  • Use a fair bit of polish for your base colour
  • Act fast
  • EXPERIMENT with design
  • I use my nail to clean up any wonky lines or leaks in the polish (this can happen when applying a big dollop at once.. use a fine brush dipped in polish remover if you aren't a fan of the nail to nail clean up I use)
  • Enjoy :)
