Rock a half moon mani


There are two things we're obsessed with right now at GLHQ: nail art and the Baltimore Ravens. It's kinda hard not being infatuated with the latter when we're based in Baltimore and our beloved team has a playoff game this Sunday. To flaunt my purple pride, I chose a Raven-fied half moon mani to tie in my love of the Roaring 20s revival and Ray Lewis, natch. Here's the play-by-play on landing this trendy tip design:


1. Paint the main color first. Let dry.

2. Using a nail pen or a fine brush, create a mini arch at the base of your nail. Let dry.

3. Cover with top coat. Voilà!


If you don't have a steady hand or nail pen, use hole reinforcements at the base of the nail. (Note: Make it less adhesive by sticking on your skin first, or else it will rip off the polish. Learned that one the hard way!)


And! I've decided to do a purple mani each week we're in the playoffs. Even if you're not rooting for the Ravens, you will to want to see what I have in store ahead. Promise!
