Today's challenge is Half Moon nails. I can tell you, I had major issues with this one. I went to a friend's house to motivate him to do a painting, and did my nails while he painted and we talked. I tried about four different things before making my friend help me out on what polishes to use. In the end, I ended up using China Glaze White on White, Lush Lacquers' Lite Brite (my FAVORITE glitter polish), and an unnamed Funky Fingers purple holo. As I was typing about the Superbowl, I realized that two of the colors are the same as the team colors for the Baltimore Ravens...so I dedicate this manicure to Chris; dude, I hope your team wins!
Enough about that, on with the pictures! Only three this time because I must say, I'm disappointed in this. This isn't my best work, and I had a bit of a hard time getting the glitter where I wanted it, but I do like it. I love rainbows (my nickname is Niji, which is "rainbow" in Japanese), which is why Lite Brite is a favorite glitter. It looks STUNNING with white undies, which also bring out the mini holo glitter in the polish. I absolutely recommend Lush Lacquers; their polishes are so adorable and FUN. Check them out on Etsy!
No more chatter, on with the pictures! Enjoy :-)
Don't forget to stop by the other participants' pages to see what awesome work they've done! I LOVED all the galaxy nails I saw...while you'd think that all galaxy manis look the same, they don't! Just like the universe, they're all beautifully, gorgeously diverse. I can't wait to see what they'll all have for Day Two of the challenge <3
I think they look great! My first half moon mani was a complete fail and this is nothing even close to how horrible that turned out ;)
