I already proclaimed my love for Pinterest and showed ideas I’ve stolen from there but now I’m going to show you how I do the Half Moon Mani…. or as I call it, the Binder Reinforcement Mani.  Bonus? You can do it over polish that’s starting to chip a bit and it goes unnoticed.

Start by painting your nails as you normally would.  I like to do two coats and it’s important that this color is lighter than the color you’ll use for the tips.

Next, place the reinforcements on your nails and leave as much of the tips out as you want to be the contrasting color.

Paint each nail from the reinforcement to the tip.  Let dry and then add a top coat.

Voila!

 

A super easy way to spice up your nails!
