14 marble manicures that prove no two designs are alike

Calling all stone-cold bitches — marble nails are taking over Instagram.

The marble mani features swirly, rock-like paint strokes that look like the stone slabs you find out in nature (or Kim Kardashian's countertop). 

Embrace your inner geologist and try out the marble nail trend.

To get the marble design, add tiny dots of polish to a solid-colored base then swirl them around in an organic, free-hand form.

For a more "blurred" look, try dipping the brush in polish thinner or alcohol and go over the lines.

Some nail artists prefer "water marbling method" which involves dripping different colors of polish into a bowl of water.

Blend the colors together in the bowl before applying the liquid to the nail.

The results leave you with a seriously impressive set of claws.
