Here are my half moon nails for day 18!
For this I used
- Black Magic from Revlon
- Aglaia from 2True
- Konad SP in Black
- Pure Midnight From Sally Hansen
- Seche Vite
Starting with a couple of coats of black magic, I stamped the bottom half of my nail, with Agiaia, I used Moyou Pro plate 05 which is a standard size plate from them, it’s way too narrow and short for me to use as a full nail, but it’s fine to use sideways for half a nail lol!
Then I applied a thin coat of Seche Vite, when that was dry I used ring binder hole reinforcements to mask off the half moons, then sponged on some more Black Magic and removed the sticky rings.
Then for the tips of my nails I sponged on more Aglaia and some Pure midnight, I was going for a gradient but it didn’t really work very well
Then I applied another coat of Seche, waited for it to dry then stamped using the same image, but with Konad SP Black and then a final coat of SV.
With all of the topcoat I used for this I’m honestly surprised that it didn’t shrink a lot more!

Wow, these are super cool! Even if you say the gradient didn’t turn out like a gradient it still looks great. I really like them!

It may not have turned out like you intended, but the final look is still really visually interesting, and it looks super complicated. These are the kind of nails that get you stopped in the street! Great job!

I love it! The way the gradient fades into the stamping looks really cool 🙂
