Between A Rock & A Hard Place. Which Trend Do We Love More?

(Our indecisive face. Also, I need that hat in my life.)

By BR Tabby

Two new beauty trends have come to our attention over the last couple of months and we're having trouble deciding which we love more. The first trend is marble lips - and no it's not the act of gluing marbles to your lips or anything OTT like that - it's creating a marbled effect on your lips, and the result is stunning. The other trend is geode nails - basically painting a crystal-esque look onto your fingernails, and some of those designs have left us awestruck. So anyway, we were doing 'if you had to pick your favourite' in the office over the other day... and, well, we couldn't decide which we preferred if we had to choose one - geode or marble? So we thought we'd show you some of our favourite images and get your opinion.

Batter up... Geode Nails!!

Would you look at that? It's rich, sumptuous, and I couldn't do it in a bazillion years. And we love how you can do a single geode feature nail, or rock the look on all your tips.

Not only can the geode nail be as full on in style as you'd like, but it can be a gorgeous simple design too - one we think anyone could achieve!

And then you get this kind of geode nail - and it's fresh, yet sophisticated - and again totally achievable. Hellloooooo fluttery heart.

Right, so that's that for the geodes... Marble Lips, you're up!

Okay, so marble lips aren't as wearable as geode nails. But they're so cool! And interesting to look at!

And while the majority of looks perhaps aren't work-okay (depending on where you work of course) some of them actually could totally be rocked.

And doesn't this look so luxe? Luxe-alicious! Saaaa-woooooooooon! 

I don't know. What do you think? Would you rock the marble lips? Or is the answer a crystal clear geode nail for the win? Tell us what you love! Tell us if you don't love. Tell us if it's something you'd love to try! Chat away!

I can't believe nails can look so precessional at home. This is a win for me and I want to use it anytime

Wow !! I'm a huge fan of marble anything , but those geode nails just look aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing!!!! I'm craving new nails lately , I just keep breaking mine. Broke 3 trying to catch our naughty bunny who was on the gravel driveway today.

Love the nails - and totally wearable too! The lips look awesome but definitely not for everyday. Would be a great model or runway type look though

Not overly keep on the look of the lips but love the nails they look awesome

I love the bottom marble combo. I'd love to get my nails done a matte black with a feature nail done in a marble look.

Gorgeous! I do not however have the time or patience hahaha

The marble lips are quite stunning but I think are more for those wearable art type occasions. I do however, love the geode nails! Those are right up my bold loving alley. I would wear those all day every day! I think they would be far less maintenance than the marble lip look too...bonus.

The marble lips look great on camera but aren't that practical for real life. Geode nails all the way! They would brighten up anybody's day. :)

I like both, but I have to go with the nails because I think the lip art would come off too quickly.

The Geode nails are amazing!!! Im totally in love with them.

31st May, 2017

I love the nails but I wouldn't have the patience to do it myself. Those marble lips though STUN!

31st May, 2017

I like the nails best :)

31st May, 2017

I love the nails, I've tried different nail polishes like this before, they are very effective. I wouldn't have my lips looking like that although they would look good on some people.

31st May, 2017

Definitely the nails! They last longer and are more wearable. I don't have the skill to do them but I would wear them.

31st May, 2017

I love the marble look for photo shoots and fashion shoots, but in general day geode nails would be much less maintenance and would look awesome!!!
