This past week CutePolish shared an easy DIY method to create a different marble nails look than the messy water method. Her super quick how-to video gets straight to the point: In my opinion this looks nothing like the blending of the water marble polish BUT it was fun and while time consuming it is…
If you think of Igigi you probably, for the most part, think dresses. Maybe a few tops, dress pants and skirts. Most recently jewelry.
