Simple Festive Nails

Hello Lovelies,

I decided to try another simple yet festive holiday nail look and I think this one turned out pretty nice! In efforts to be creative, I took a look that can be worn year round and put a holiday twist to it. Here is the look...

 It was super easy to get this half moon design and it was reasonably quick!
Here is how I did them:

Step 1: I applied my base coat first then chose to apply my Milani 3D Holographic Nail polish in gold to all my nails. I did two layers of the gold and let it dry completely.

 Step 2: When the gold polish dried I used my punched paper reinforcements and applied them to the base of my nails, creating the stencil for the half moon. I chose to apply them more around the half way point of my nail to give it a more dramatic look. Make sure that they are stuck on well and the corners are not lifted to ensure a clean line.

Step 3: I then took my red polish from Sally Hansen's Extreme Wear line in the color Red Carpet and applied that to my nail above the stencil. I only did one coat of this polish because it seems to be enough to give the look I desired. Wait till this layer has dried before peeling off the reinforcements, and when doing so peel it off slowly from one side to the other. And add your favorite top coat once you have finished!

This was super simple and I think it turned out great! Hope you enjoyed this step by step post!
