NOTW: Half Moon Manicure


If you haven't heard of, or even seen a half moon manicure then where the hell have you been?! Half moon manicures have been all the rage for the last six months and seen on celebrities like Rihanna, Beyonce, Dita Von Tease and Lauren Conrad to name a few. The half moon manicure consists of two contrasting colours on one nail. The first colour is the shape of a half moon and usually is on the cuticle end of the nail. The second colour covers the remaining nail.

In my opinion, half moon manicure look best when the half moon is a metallic varnish like sparkly gold and the remaining part of the nail is a pastel colour like a Barry M's Mint Green (pictured above). I really like the look of this manicure as it's simple but looks great. It's actually easier to create than I first thought but you definitely need some patience.

What do you think of the half moon manicure? Have you ever tried it?
