As a beginner, you can try a marble nails manicure at home. You will be required to have a base colour to protect your nails. You will also need three colours. A marble feature colour that should be lighter than the base colour, detail or contrasting colour is what you will use to draw the lines and a metallic colour that aligns well with the detail colour.

In addition, you will need a detail brush to draw your nails, a plastic wrap to create the marble effect, a top coat to seal your polish and create a smooth texture, a clean-up brush to remove any smudges and a nail polish remover to wipe away any excess polish.
