Halloween Nail Art


Well Halloween is tomorrow and why shouldn't your nails take part?! I wanted something that looked the part but wasn't too 'in-your-face' and would still look good after the 31st. This was what I created - white for a ghost/pale and red for blood.



To recreate this look, first use Maybelline Colour Show in 'Winter Baby'. I needed about 3 coats of this as it was quite a pale colour and had quite a thin consistency. It is not a pure white but it has a slight 'ghost' look about it.
To create the blood drips, use a thin, old paint brush and dip it in Barry M nail polish in 'Bright Red' and place a couple of dots on each nail. Then simply drag up towards the end of your nail to create a drip look. Fill in the end of your nail with the red to finish the look off. The red doesn't have to look too neat as it is meant to be dripping blood!
Then simply coat your nails in Barry M clear top coat and walah you have Halloween nails!


What do you think of this look?

Love Laura xx
