Prom Nail Art: Dotted Half Moon
A prom tweak on festival boho nails, this half-moon look is one to go dotty over. Feel free to match the base color to your chosen chiffon shade for extra style points.
Step 1 – Apply the base color
After applying a clear base coat, coat your nails in a bold shade. Here we’ve used turquoise – a color that’ll instantly draw the eye.
Step 2 – Create dots with white polish
Dip the pinpoint side of a nail cuticle stick (or toothpick) into white nail polish. Artfully dot a semi-circle at the base of the nail; this creates the half-moon effect.
Step 3 – Apply a top coat
Seal the look with a glossy top coat, this will prevent chipping – perfect if you want to get your nails sorted a couple of days in advance.
Done
You shall go to the ball!
