It’s coming up to Halloween quickly and I’m super busy at the moment, got a lot of exciting things happening and its very busy, but we all need to make time for a nice mani. What better than Halloween themed? They ‘re not perfect but they’re Halloween themed and pretty easy for your guys to be able to do. I’ve had quite a few people comment on my nails, asking if they were stick on, which was pretty cool. For all the black bits, I used liquid black eye liner as I don’t really want to spend loads on nail art tool and it works just as well.
Eye ball – Use white varnish base (let it dry) – Light blue circle in the middle (use dotting tool if you have one and let it dry) – use red varnish and wipe off pretty much all of the varnish and just dab lines on for the veins – Use liquid eye liner for the pupil – Let it all dry and use a gel or top coat to keep in place.
Zombie – Use a green or teal varnish base (let it dry) – Mustard or yellow colour for the eyes (use a dotting tool if you have one and let it dry) – Use liquid black eye liner for the eyebrows, pupils, scars, stitches and mouth (let it dry) – Use a gel or top coat to keep it in place.
Pumpkin – Use a pastel orange varnish for the base (let it dry) – Use a darker or fluorescent orange and do some stripes done the nail (let it dry) – Use a green just for a small line as the stem of the pumpkin at the bottom of the nail – Use black liquid liner for the eyes, nose and mouth of the pumpkin (let it all dry) – Add a gel or top coat to keep it all in place.
Ghost – Use a white varnish for the base (let it dry) – Use black eye liner for the eyes, mouth and to outline the bottom of the ghost (let it dry) – Add a gel or top coat to keep it in place.
Skull – Use a white varnish for the base (let it dry) – Use black eye liner for the eyes, nose holes and teeth (let it all dry) – Add a gel or top coat to keep it all in place.
