February Nail Art Challenge: Half Moons


 I definitely took some liberties with this half moon mani. lol. As you can see, only two of the nails actually ended up being half moons. My base color (Julep Carrie) was taking soooo long to dry, even with a fast dry top coat that when I used the binder reinforcements for the half moons, they were making big dents in the polish. Also, I ended up smudging one and had to start all over with dry time. 

I must say, though, these half moons turned out way better than my first failed attempt. And, I really did love the color combo and the mani itself. You all know I love me some bows and polka dots! lol.






Colors used for this mani:
Julep Carrie
Essie Turquoise and Caicos
OPI Alpine Snow

Silver and Blue Half Moon Mani

This was my first attempt at a half-moon mani. I was going to use it as a mani for one of my Feb challenges, but then I realized how bad it sucked, so I figured I would try again ;)

These are seriously harder than they look. And I don't know if it's my nail shape or what, but the dang little stickers do not want to stay down around the edges of my nails, so it makes the sides look horrible. I am going to try again this weekend and see if I can do at least a litter better than this! lol.







Colors I used:
Color Club Worth The Risque
Zoya Song

Have you done a half moon mani? Did it turn out better or worse than you expected? This definitely turned out much worse than I had hoped! lol.
