I'M BACK!

  I'm finally back! Thanks to my soon to be niece Sarah telling me I need to get back to blogging!

I will try to be much better about keeping up with the blog in 2013. 

With that said, I'm starting with some pretty awesome nails, take a look:

I am in love with half moon manicures and have done many different versions but I am in love with this one.

The best part is, these half moon mani's are super easy.

Step 1:

Paint your nails with base color.

I used an OPI gold and just put it on like regular polish and let it dry.

Seriously, don't go on to the next step until you are super sure your nails are dry or it will get messy.

Step 2:

You will need to get those little stickers you use to fix ripped note book paper:

They are cheap and will last you for many many mani's. Plus if you're a student they may come in handy.

You are going to put these on your nail like this:

(yes, I know, my nails are already different, don't judge)

Step 3:

Once you've got the sticker on you can put on your next color, I used green. Well two greens actually. I don't have a dark shimmery emerald green so I took a deep Forrest green and put a bright shimmery green on top to create to color I have in this mani.

And there you go! You can leave it shiny or do what I did and use a Matte top coat on the lower part of the nail (green for this mani)

I think having the green matte adds more contrast and makes the manicure look way cooler.

Try it out and let me know how it goes!
