Ten minute nail art? How cool is that? I whipped these babies together in no time! I did a base coat or Orly Ridge Filler… then I painted four different strips of bright colors. I just sort of glopped them on very thick and messy. Then I dragged a dotting tool through them to create the tie dye effect. It would probably look nice with a bright white base coat- but I was going for quick and easy today so I skipped that part. For such a ‘quick n dirty’ technique it came out pretty cool I think. This could be a great option for some quick summertime nail art!
Have you ever tried tie dye nails? I imagine that there’s a lot of different tie dye techniques out there!

very cool tie dye, i used to refer to it as marbling.
Yes, you’re right… I guess it is called marbling! 🙂
wow I love it! I need t o note this one for my busy days.
Thanks! The good thing is – no concentration needed. Just slather the polish on!
Omg I am so in love with this! Thumbs up for you getting the neons perfectly on camera! My camera refuses to do that 😉
Oh really? Thnx! I snapped it outside so I guess the sun was positioned perfectly that day!
oh woooow i love how this turned out. very creative & fun.
So this is done with normal drag marble’ing ??:) cool, it really looks like tie dye, or Batik 🙂 Love the outcome of this 🙂 Reminds me of a tshirt from the 60’s and 70’s, great 🙂 ❤
Yup I guess it would be considered drag marbling! I never really tried it before. Glad u like it 🙂

Hahaha thanks! I’ve been makin good use of my neons lately!
Me like! Me like a lot! 😀
Yay thanks! Hey- is the sally hansen stuff you use called ‘maximum growth’? I used an old bottle of that stuff during the 30 day challenge and my nails are in good shape!
Whoa! These are amazing!
Thank you Anna 🙂
Wow I can’t believe these were that easy and quick!! I think you’re right, a white base would make them even better! Love these.
Thanks! A white base would work good i bet…. or i was thinking maybe dragging a skinny brush dipped in white instead of a dotting tool? I wanna try this again!
