Tammy Taylor creates a gel dotting technique for a beautiful marbling effect with a lot of control, so you can determine how much or how little marbling you want.

You can use it all by itself or as a background in many designs," Taylor says.

Tammy Taylor demonstrates the "Take Me to the Big City" nail design using a marbling technique, or what she calls an "organized chaos technique."
