Hi everyone, I’m Megan from Blondes
Love Cupcakes and I am delighted to be returning the
favour and writing a guest post for Stephanie :) A few weeks ago she
wrote a post on how to make a delicious
DIY hair mask, so I am writing about what I love best
- nails. I hope you guys like my design, and be sure to check out my
blog for more nail art and DIY tutorials :)
Half moon designs are all
the rage lately with celebs like Lauren Conrad, Dita Von Teese &
Beyoncé all sporting the chic design. So here is a super simple
tutorial to show you how to replicate it at home! :)
- Paint two layers of a neutral base coat untill you have full even coverage (I used Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in Lychee).
- Once your nails are fully dry, paint on half moons with a super thin paintbrush following where your cuticles would naturally occur. I never use stickers as guides because I hate when they pull up the base coat...but you can if you want! (I used Rimmel Pro No.393 Desire for this).
- Then draw a thin gold line around your maroon half moon to make it extra chic! (I used NYC New York Minute Full Metal Jacket).
- Once everything is fully dry, use a topcoat to seal it all and add shine.
- Show off your glamorous nails to your friends and prepare to be admired! :)
