why do you call it a orange stick

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@moviemic1 I didn't name it LOL that's just what they're called =)

every time I try this technique, no matter how quickly I work, the polish dries almost immediately so when I try to swirl it it just turns into this big piece of skin on top of the water and it doesn't work. I am using room temperature filtered water. Any suggestions??

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@BettiePage06 every polish dries at a different speed & those that dry fast just aren't very good for marbling - if you can't work any quicker then you have to find colors that dry slower =) Also make sure there's not a fan or anything creating a draft on the water as that can make the polish dry faster

Where can the color club French tip be purchase? I hear lots of good review about it, so maybe I would try it.

[SimpleLittlePleasues]

@Number1ChoChangFan I got it online but don't remember exactly where - a lot of e-tailers carry it =)

@CrazyBeautifulLivess - that used to happen to me too. its very important to clean your nails first with nail polish remover, even if you don't have any old polish to take off. It removes the oils from your hands and makes the polish stick better ;) also use a base and top coat. Trust me, it makes a huge difference!
