My first half-moon mani

I can't go to work with naked nails, so I decided to try a half-moon mani.

Check out the colors I used after the jump!

I started with one coat of Spoiled Are Mermaids Real?

\

Are Mermaids Real? is a beautiful lilac jelly packed with gold flecks and tiny purple sparkles.

The formula on this polish is absolutely lovely. 

The pictures above are shown with one coat and a coat of Orly Sec 'n Dry.

Then waited a little while and threw on my reinforcement stickers (I forgot to take a picture), and painted on 2 coats of Milani Totally Cool.

I reviewed Totally Cool a couple of days ago. It's purple jelly with pink, red, and purple shimmer throughout.

I topped everything off with a coat of Seche Vite.

And this is the end result; not bad for a first time.

Totally Cool can be found for about $4.50 at Wal-Greens, CVS, and Rite-Aid.

Are Mermaids Real? is $1.99 at CVS.
