I painted two coats of Milani Blue Lightning and while the third coat was wet, I used my dotting tool and China Glaze Icicle and Mistletoe Me and a toothpick to drag/swirl the dots together. I sealed the manicure with one coat of Seche Vite.

Drag Marbling
This is my first attempt at drag marbling, a manicure technique often done by a blogger I follow, My Simple Pleasures. I think it turned out pretty well, but all the foil finishes make it look a bit un-crisp in the photos.

I quite like it, it seems reminiscent of Van Gogh's artistic style.
