Beauty trends 2016: skin marbling

Marbling of the body

Skin marbling? You've probably already heard of marbling, but not in connection with the skin, but with dandruff and nails. It is a modern dyeing technique that, from the eggshell and cornea, has now also spread to the skin, covering it in unique, colorful patterns that we just can't imagine. All you need is marbling paint and salt water. Simple, fast, and above all, unique!

Marbling of the skin is a beauty trend that is spreading like wildfire at music festivals around the world. It's not hard to see why. Technique dyeing the skin with natural colors for marbling, which we have been used to using for dyeing of pyrethrums, is extremely simple, and the result is downright magical. In contrast to the marbling the nails with nail polish marbling the skin is much simpler.


Although the whole thing seems extremely toxic, it is far from it. Namely, the colors are made on the basis of organic solvents. They are soluble, so we can use anything as a medium plain water. They are far from being suitable only for coloring eggshells, as they can be used on such different materials as wood, plastic, paper, fabric, silk, glass, candle, cardboard and styrofoam and also the skin (however, you must not color food with them).

Drip and dip, body marbling is that simple. The procedure is as follows. We first submerge a part of the body into salt water (this allows the color to remain on the skin) and wait for it to dry. Then just dip it in the water in which we soaked it earlier any color for marbling and the skin gets dressed in no time colorful patterns. Enjoy the magical world of marbling! You can see how it looks live in the videos above.

Info Box

The technique got the name marbling because the drawn pattern resembles marble.
