This manicure is a mix of a half moon and a gradient.
The colors are inspired by a tropical beach where the sand is almost white and the water is bright green turquoise.
I used the following polishes: (from left to right)
Barry M Lychee
Barry M Greenberry
I also used some nail striping tape and a piece of a make-up sponge.
First I applied the nude color and let it dry completely.
Then I added a piece of striping tape on each nail.
After this I did the gradient on one nail at the time with the sponge and
then I removed the striping tape before the turquoise polishes had dried.
To seal the manicure I applied one coat of Seche Vite.
