31DC2015: Day 18 - Half Moons



Today is Day 18 of The 31 Day Nail Art Challenge! Today's challenge is Half Moon Nails.

I did two designs for today's challenge because I wasn't sure if I liked the first design. For the look at the top, I started off by painting my nails with two coats of Beyond the Nail - Canadian Ice. When dried, I added one coat of PRO-FX - Quick Dry Topcoat. I then placed on some Half Moon Nail Guides (coming soon to Beyond the Nail!) to the top of each nail, and added one coat of Beyond the Nail - Spring Blue Creme over the entire nail. While still wet, I gently peeled off the nail guide and was left with a half moon design! But I couldn't stop there.. I added some more topcoat, and added some Half Round Studs to each nail, outlining the half moon design.



Here's the design I started with.. I wasn't sure if I liked it enough to keep it on,
I started with two coats of Beyond the Nail - Champagne. When it was dried, I added French Tip Nail Guides to the top of each nail and painted Beyond the Nail - Biscotti to the lower half of my nail. I gently peeled off the nail guide while the polish was still wet, and got a tiny brush and extended the Biscotti polish on the sides to make it look more round. I topped every nail off with one coat of PRO-FX - Quick Dry Topcoat.
