We love the look of water-marbled nails but it is SUCH a messy process! Luckily, blogger Leanne Marie has found an amazing technique for non-messy marble nails that don't require water! Hallelujah!

You will need:

- 2 or more coloured polishes

- Topcoat

"Apply two coats of your base colour. I used Essie Fiji."

"Once dry, take your coloured polishes and randomly dot the polish over the nail. You dont need to be neat, or have a set pattern, the dots can be overlapping, thick and gloopy. In fact the thicker the better."

"The next step is to take your clingfilm and simply place it over your nail. You then want to press lightly on top of this to make all the dots of colour merge together. This is what creates the marbled effect. Use a cotton bud to clean up any polish from around the nail once you've removed the cling film."

"I then wait a minute or two just to ensure that the colours have dried slightly and apply a top coat. If the colours arent completely dry - dont worry, it may mean they merge more into one another when you apply the topcoat. Therefore you get an even better marbled effect!"
