4. Marble, Metallics & Neutrals
This design is the epitome of sophisticated modern nail art. It uses a mix of finishes and patterns on long coffin nails within a neutral palette. There’s a chic taupe-grey solid nail, a stunning black, white, and grey marble effect nail accented with delicate gold foil, a solid glossy black nail, and a full-coverage gold glitter nail.
- Recreating the Look: The marble effect can be approached in several ways. You could try the water marbling technique (dropping polish into water and swirling), use Marble Nail Ink which blooms on the nail, or paint squiggly lines of black, white, and grey over a base color and gently blend them with a fine brush dipped in acetone or alcohol. Tiny pieces of Gold Nail Foil can be applied using foil glue while the polish is slightly tacky. You’ll need a good Taupe/Grey Nail Polish, a solid Glossy Black Nail Polish, and a dazzling Gold Glitter Nail Polish. This look beautifully combines different textures and finishes.
