Each night, the moon represents powerful regeneration with a strong sense of mystery. Having moon nails can mean so many things depending on what kind of moon shape you use.
If you look at the moon shape already available at the bottom of your nail, this is called a lunulae. The lunulae should be more towards the bottom right above the cuticle.
If you choose to do a half moon manicure for your nail art, you will notice it resembles the lunulae. There is also the crescent symbol which is often used to show us the moon but not in any specific lunar phase.
The moon is very spiritual and seeing a full moon is an important celebration of growth. Just like the phases of the moon, we should all reflect on the distances we’ve come in our lives. If you choose to do moon nails, you can do them in different phases of the moon.
There are 12 phases of the moon and these include The Lunar Month as well as New Moon. Then there is the Waxing Crescent Moon and the First Quarter Moon. After that, we have the Waxing Gibbous Moon and Full Moon, which we briefly discussed earlier. And last but not least, we have the Waning Gibbous Moon and the Third Quarter Moon.
Since there are so many options to choose from, you will likely select just a few of these moments as the moon is illuminated differently throughout all of them. Moon nails can come out absolutely beautiful if done correctly and there are many different strategies one can use to ensure that the final outcome looks very pretty.
You can use a circle sticker to get the proper shape for example. This will be sure to get you the crisp lining of the moon on your nails.
