Drag Marble - Essie Mesmerize & ChG Recycle

This was actually my first ever attempt at a drag marble, I started with Essie Mesmerize, and added China Glaze Recycle. I was going for a webish look, but I'm not sure how well I accomplished that!

Rather than going with a full wet nail, I let the base dry, then alternated two stripes of each color at the corner and drug from there. I'd say I could definitely use more practice!

Though I am not 100% happy with how it turned out, Mesmerize is still one stunningly gorgeous blue polish! For as much as I love blues, I don't wear them nearly enough, and I really love this one!

Thanks! I doubt I'll do it much more, it takes too long to dry!

There are some other looks I want to try with this technique, too, but it just takes SO long to dry!

Cool effect! It's almost 3-D. I skipped this Essie and opted for the Nails Inc. I hope I got it right ;)
