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

ABC Challenge: Bow

Today's letter for the ABC Challenge is the letter B! I want to try to do as many entries as nail art as I possibly can for this challenge. I chose to to a bow for the letter B. Here is what I came up with:




I used OPI French Quarter For Your Thoughts and Zoya Lo for this mani. I also used a small plastic bow. I got a set of all different shapes and sizes off Ebay really inexpensively. If anyone is ever looking for nail art supplies, I suggest checking Ebay. They have pretty much everything and it's all super cheap.
