Vintage Half-Moon Manicure | Anita Colby's 1950's Beauty Book Inspired

Join me for a vintage half-moon manicure tutorial! Most popular in the 1940s, this retro half-moon style was still worn in the early 1950s, and I'm including a hot oil treatment prescribed in Anita Colby's Beauty Book! Anita Colby was an authority on beauty and style in the 1950s, having been the highest paid model during the 1930s, an actress, Hollywood beauty coach, news editor, and early television host. She insisted that the actresses under her care use a vintage slant board every day for health and energy while filming, and encouraged housewives to use one as well while letting their nail polish dry... Since I live a vintage lifestyle every day, I use a slant board whenever I can find the time. It's so relaxing!

Here is the reproduction vintage slant board on Amazon:
