This unique modeling looks very elaborate - yes, that's right! But what many people don't know: Marble nails are very easy to imitate. Our nail designer Martina will show you how to create the elegant marble look on your nails step by step. No matter which technology and products you prefer.

This is what our nail designer 👩‍🎨 Martina says about this nail trend:

I personally like the classic black/white marble look! If you prefer something modern and creative, you should definitely have the courage to use color - marble nails can be seen in any color combination ” 🤩

Marble Nails with UV Shellac nail polish

Step by step instructions in 5 simple steps:

  1. First apply the Shellac Base Top Coat to the nails and cure it in the LED ~ 60 seconds | UV ~ 120 sec lamp off.
  2. Now choose a Shellac color of your choice, for example Shellac Classic snow white , and apply it thinly twice. Please do not remove the sweat layer.

  3. After curing, apply a thin layer of Shellac Base Top Coat - important not to cure!

  4. Now choose a second Shellac color of your choice, for example Shellac Classic black and a nail art brush Striper . Use the nail art brush to pick up some of the color and draw fine, uneven lines, sometimes a little thicker, sometimes barely visible, across the entire nail. This creates an uneven pattern that is reminiscent of marble. Give the whole thing some time so that it can blur together a bit and get an even nicer look. If you are satisfied with the result, cure the whole thing - LED ~ 60 sec | UV ~ 120 sec.

    Styling tip: If you want to add highlights, you can conjure up small effects using effect gels , nail art pinstripes or nail art stickers & tattoos .

  5. Finally, seal the whole thing with the Shellac Base Top Coat and clean it off after it has hardened. Complete!

Marble Nails Color Ink Ink

Step by step instructions in 3 easy steps:

  1. First apply a color gel of your choice, for example Color Gel Classic super white, best applied a thin layer twice - please do not remove the sweat layer. This is particularly important so that the Color Ink can be distributed better.

  2. Now take a Color Ink ink of your choice, for example some Color Ink Nail Art Ink black , the more color there is on the brush , the more the color will spread on the nail. It's best not to use too much paint, otherwise it will run too much. Use the Color Ink ink to place small dots or lines on the entire nail. Now moisten a brush with cleaner and dab or pull on the dots or lines until the color blurs the way you want the pattern. The ink runs within seconds and then dries in the air.

    Styling tip: If you want to add highlights, you can conjure up small effects using effect gels , rhinestones or nail art stickers & tattoos .

  3. Finally, apply a layer of matt or glossy sealing gel and clean it off after it has hardened. Complete!

No matter which technique you choose, with this nail design you will be right on trend 👍

There are no limits to your ideas thanks to the many colors and nail art products . If you don't like the marble design on all 10 fingers at the same time, you can of course just put accents on the middle and ring fingers, for example. 

Have fun imitating 💋
