half moon design

Hi so i've been inspired to do a nail design tutorial. on the half moon design.
 It all started in the 1920 women would spend so much time on your nails which meant you were of a higher class. As the name reveals a half moon manicure is a totally painted nail with a tiny half-moon left bare or colored lightly at the base of every fingernail.

Many celebrities seem to have great pleasure in wearing the half moon nails, Dita von Teese is only one of them. She seems to have a fatal attraction for it, never leaving the house without a polished half-moon manicure. 



We've made it more current by elongating the half-moon and making the colours more graphic in contrast


Here I have done the half moon with an extra  twist















- The  dark coloured nail polish ( Sapphire in the snow by OPI )

   - The  lighter  colour  ( Done out in Decco )
      (Purple Nail Art Stars) 


Remember to always use a good base coat and top coat to seal in the polish.


watch the video below ;to see how its been done..

  1. I absolutely love half moons! I wish the nail techs here were that crafty and creative. You are soooo lucky to live in London! It's always been a dream of mine to live there.
