Happy Halloween!

It's Halloween! Can you guys even believe it?

I can't believe tomorrow is November like I'm in some serious denial LOL! 

You may have seen this final look already on my Instagram because I posted a sneak peek of it last week when I headed out to Salem. I got so many compliments on this look and it was so easy to create! Wanna take a look?

I started with a base of Serum No5 Dayglow, my FAVORITE glow in the dark polish! When it dried I stamped over it using a black stamping polish from the Born Pretty Store and Bundle Monster plate BM-H08. I sealed it all in with some Seche Vite and that was it!

I love how easy this look was to create, it's perfect for that last minute halloween design!

What do you guys think? What are you doing for Halloween?

Thanks loves :) 

Skulls and Glitter

Hey guys!

I can't believe how close Halloween is! I feel like I had so many more spooky designs I wanted to create, but there's just not enough time in the day T.T But latest I got to do this one, a sparkly and spooky skull design! Want to check it out?

I started with a base of Color Club Beyond on my pointer and middle nails and a base of China Glaze Just Be Claws on my ring and pinky nails. When my pointer and middle nails were dry I applied some Skull Stencils from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and sponged over them with Mundo De Unas White. I peeled off the vinyl and added two red rhinestones on each for some creepy eyes. Then I sponged Milani Red Sparkle on my ring and pinky nails and I sealed them all in with some Seche Vite to finish it off! 

I absolutely LOVE how these came out! So sparkly and just perfect for Halloween. BUT, if you want to recreate the glitter part of this look I would highly suggest a peel off base coat... you guys DON'T want to know how long these took me to remove.... -_- LOL! 

Totally worth it though right?

Thanks loves :) 

Halloween Mini Dotticure

Hi guys!

More Halloween nails woohoo! I love this look so much because it's not scary, it's not creepy, it's not gory, it's just... cute ;) Sometimes simple nail designs are my absolute favorite designs to do, and this one is classy and still quite festive. Wanna check it out?

I started off by taking a toothpick, dipping it into some Nasty Nails Boink! and adding dots to the bottom portion of my nail focusing heavily on the very bottom edge. When those dots were dry I went back in and added some more dots with Wet N Wild Black Creme. I filled in any bald spots with some more Nasty Nails Boink! and added a layer of TLLB Glow-Stly for some good holo measure ;) Finally I sealed it all in with a layer of Seche Vite and that's it!

I love how simple this look is, and it honestly took me about 15 minutes to create. It's perfect for a last minute halloween manicure, or you can even change it up and use different colors. The possibilities are endless ;) 

What do you guys think?

Bloody Spiders

I HATE THESE NAILS!

Not that I don't think they're cool because they are... but SPIDERS T.T Grossssssss!

I suppose spiders go hand in hand with Halloween but man, do I hate them! Sade to say these nails didn't last more then the amount of time it took me to photograph them LOL! 

Anyways.... let's get creating ;) 

I started with a base of Essie Blanc. When it was dry I applied some liquid latex around my nails and created the blood splatter with a straw and OPI Big Apple Red. I removed the liquid latex and added some spider decals from Stick It! Nail Vinyls and sealed everything in with some Seche Vite. And that was it! Check them out!

Spooooooooky! As much as I hate spiders I think these are absolutely perfect for Halloween! What will you be wearing on your nails this year?

Thanks loves :) 

Spooky Spider Webs

It's that time of year again! 

Time for pumpkins, ghosts and ghouls, and all that spooky stuff. Me? I prefer the cute Halloween stuff ;) Although haunted houses is a guilty pleasure of mine.... unless it involves chainsaws, then EFFFFFF that! 

Anyways I bought a few polishes from a new to me brand, Nasty Nails, and one of the colors I bought was Boink! A GORGEOUS pumpkin orange! I couldn't wait to give it a try so I figured some Halloween nails were in order. Want to check it out?

I started with a base of Nasty Nails Boink! and then applied a layer of TLLB Glow-Stly over top. When it was dry I stamped over each nail with Bundle Monster plate BM-H07 and a black stamping polish from the Born Pretty Store. I sealed it all in with some Seche Vite and that was it!

That orange though.... PERFECTION! I'm not much of an orange wearer but I can see myself wearing this one a lot!

What do you guys think?

Sugar Skulls

Hey guys!

I hope you had a super fun and safe Halloween! I was dressed as the queen of hearts, I made my own tutu and everything ;) But the best part of my costume was my two little heart cards that followed me around, my puppies! I've got a few pictures I'll see if I can get some posted! 

Anyways I've got one more Halloween manicure that I thought would be super fun for today, sugar skulls! Ready to take a look?

I started off with a base of Color Club Beyond. When it dried I created the skulls with a bunch of acrylic paints. I sealed it all in with Essie Good To Go and that was it!

So yeah I know they're kind of funny looking but I still think they're cute enough!!! 

What do you think guys? Did you dress up for Halloween? What were you?

Thanks loves :) 

A Halloween Chevron

Hey guys! 

It's getting so close to Halloween! Are you going to dress up? I have to where I work but I'm super excited about my costume... I'm going as the Queen of Hearts! I made my own tutu and everything ;) Want to know what makes it even better? My dogs are going to be playing cards LOL! Now to convince my boss that I need to take them with me... if only ;) 

Anyways! I've got another Halloween-y manicure today, an orange, purple, and black chevron manicure! Let's get started!

I started out with a base of Lime Crime Peaches <3 Cream, I know this is more of a peach shade but I'm just going to go with 'creamsicle' today LOL! Then I used my nail vinyls from The Little LacquerBean (there's a 40% off coupon going right now! Use code: makeovr40!!!!) and China Glaze Bizarre Blurple and Color Club Beyond. I sealed it all in with Essie Good To Go and that's it. 

I really love chevron manicures, they're simple but when you use nail vinyls you can get such crisp lines. I just love the look! 

What do you guys think?

Thanks loves :) 

Bloody Halloween

Happy Wednesday!!

How are you guys doing today? I'm kind of moping around, I seem to be getting another cold... thanks to my boyfriend! He always says its allergies.... LIAR -_- Lol!! But I'm chugging orange juice and honey like it's going out of style so maybe I can stop it ;) Hopefully anyways!

But let's get to the real reason you guys are here... nails! I've been doing some more cutesy Halloween designs lately but I think it's time for something a bit more gory don't ya think? So how about some blood splatter nails?!

I started this design off with Essie Blanc. When it dried I used OPI Big Apple Red and a straw to create the blood splatters. I cleaned up and sealed everything in with Essie Good To Go and that was it!

What do you think?! I was pleasantly surprised at how easy these were to create, they took me about 30 minutes from start to finish and the final result is just SO cool! I definitely have to try this in some other color combinations, any suggestions??

Thanks loves! :) 

Friendly Frankenstein

What's Halloween without any Frankenstein nails!?!

Not Halloween I can tell you that ;) 

Ready to get started?

I started off with a base of The Little LacquerBean Radioactive Slime. With it dried I took black acrylic paint and a small nail art brush to create the french tips and messy stitches. On my ring finger I used assorted acrylic paints to create the cute little Frankenstein that I recreated form THIS image. A sealed everything in with some Essie Good To Go and that was all!

Ahhh he's so cute I just want to squeeze him!!! ;) LOL No but really I love cute Halloween things as opposed to scary things. I think it's because I'm better at creating cute, cartoon-ish style nails. 

What about you guys, what's your favorite Halloween character?

Thanks loves :) 

Halloween with Bundle Monster

Hey guys! 

Ready for some more Halloween nails? I figured it's been a while since I've done any stamping manicures so I took out the stamping plates to see what I could create! Bundle Monster has so many amazing designs, and even s few plates dedicated to just Halloween! Ready to check out what I did?

I started off with a base of The Little LacquerBean Glow-Stly. When it dried I used the cool Halloween text image on Bundle Monster BM-H07 and L.A Colors Black. I sealed it all in with Essie Good To Go and that's it! 

Ooooooh holo-y goodness!

I actually like how the image didn't transfer cleanly on each nail, I think it gives it an even spookier look! What do you think?

Oh! And if you want to purchase Glow-Stly there's never been a better time, I'm running a 50% off sale in my store to get rid of my older style bottles! Plus for every bottle you purchase your name gets put into a raffle and when I run out of bottles I will randomly select one winner to receive 2 polishes of their choice from my shop for free!! Just use code 50bottles at checkout!

Spooky Spiderwebs

IT'S TIME!

It's time. It's time. It's time. It's time..... for Halloween nails!!! 

Halloween has got to be one of the best times of the year for nail art, there are so many different things to do! I've got a couple ideas in my head so keep an eye out for some spooky designs like the one I created today: spiderwebs!!

I have to confess, I took these nails off almost as soon as I finished them, it's not that I didn't like them, I actually loved them! But I am terrified of spiders! ;) Though it is the time of the year so spiderwebs it is!

I started off with a base of Wet n Wild Black Creme. When it died I took a small nail art brush and some white acrylic paint to create the webs. I sealed it all in with Essie Good To Go and that's it! 

Even though I hate spiders I loved these nails!! I'm so excited that I got the lines thin enough so that the spiderweb looked delicate... to an extent LOL! 

What do you guys think? What do you want to see for nail art this Halloween??

Thanks loves :)

Spooky Night will be opaque with three thin and easy coats. Charge it up and watch it glow a brilliant blue! Swatches below are three coats alone with and without flash, and then the blue glow.

Witches Brew

A royal purple holographic polish with a hidden aqua shimmer. Three easy coats is all you need! Charge it up and watch it glow a beautiful purple! My glow shots make it look way more blue but trust me its purple ;) Swatches below are three coats alone with and without flash, and then the blue... (ahem PURPLE!) glow.
