Candy Corn Coffins

Hello! 😀

Candy Corn Coffins

I realized that I haven’t created any candy corn nail art this year oO so here are some Candy Corn Coffin nails! 😀

Candy Corn Coffins

That random bit of thread is really annoying, the more I look at it, the more it looks like a creepy spider leg :/ Ugh!

The polishes and other stuff I used are

  • Messy Mansion – MM11
  • Bundle Monster – BM-402
  • Hit The Bottle – Black
  • Sally Hansen – Lite
  • Rimmel – Shirley Temple
  • Sinful Colours – Snow Me White
  • Colour Club – Antiquated
  • Seche Vite

 Candy Corn Coffins

Starting with a white base I used Lite, Shirley Temple and Snow Me White for the gradient, then using Hit the bottle black for the coffins.

The little coffins are from Plate MM11 the larger coffin is from BM-402. then using a tiny brush I added the gold detail with Antiquated.

Then finished it off with a layer of topcoat!

I hope you have a lovely Halloween weekend! 😀


Glitter For Blood!

Hello! 🙂

Halloween glitter blood nail Art

Today I have this rather gruesome and glittery gradient to share with you!

Halloween glitter blood nail ArtFor this I used

  • Barry M Red Glitter
  • Estee Lauder Red Hot
  • Revlon Stiletto
  • Seche Vite
  • A Thin Nail Art Brush
  • and a Sponge

I started off with the red and black gradient, which I really think is a classic vampy nail art look. Then to add some Halloween joy I added the glittery blood lol. 🙂

I like this bit I think it would look a bit more interesting if the two red polishes had contrasting shades, on the nail they are surprisingly similar.

I ended up with so many bubbles in my topcoat, it’s probably because the glitter polish, is getting really thick, and trapping air in all the lumps and bumps.

This mani is definitely going to go on the list of ones to recreate 🙂

 


Gruesome Green Gradient

Hallo! 🙂

halloween green gradient

I really wasn’t feeling like doing anything to complicated with my nails today, so I decided on this black and bright green gradient.

Thinking about it this would look great as part of a Spooky Witch costume! 😀

The three polishes I used are all from Illamasqua! the Bright green is called Nurture, Scorn is the black polish, and the matte black glitter topper is Swarm!

I have to say I’m still not the biggest fan of Green Polish, but as a Halloween mani this is quite fun 🙂


Purple Gradient with Bridal Nail BN05

Hello! 🙂

Purple and Black Gradient With BN05

Today I have this purple gradient to show you! This mani is from a few months ago, but I think it’s too pretty not to share 🙂

The image is from the Bridal Nail 05 stamping plate from Messy Mansion

The Bridal Nail images are not as wide as the MM (round plates) full nail designs these are 17mm x 23mm while the Bridal Nail Full Nail images are 14mm x 24mm. I found that they are a really nice size to work with!

Purple and Black Gradient With BN05

In no particular order I used

  • ILNP – My Private Rainbow
  • Hit The Bottle – Black
  • NYC – Evil
  • Sally Hansen – Grape Race
  • OPI – I Carol About You
  • Bridal Nail Stamping Plate 05
  • Seche Vite

I started with Grape Race over my usual topcoat then using Evil (I really dislike the name of this polish), I Carol About You and Grape Race, for the gradient.  It only took a couple of layers and dried really quickly.  Then a thin coat of My Private Rainbow and a layer of Seche Vite.

Then the stampy goodness using Hit The Bottle Black and BN05, another coat of Seche Vite, a bit of a clean up and it was all done!

Spooky Spider Halloween Gradient

Halloo! 🙂

Halloween Purple Spiderweb Nail Art

Here are some Spooky Halloween Spiders!

I decided to have a go at a new to me technique called a Radial Gradient, If you haven’t come across this before, it’s circular so instead of painting the polish across the sponge you paint it in a circle, then apply it to the nail in the same way.

I think that for a first attempt I was far to ambitious trying to use four shades (I should have tried with two to start with)

The products I used are

  • A England – Elaine
  • Revlon – Amethyst
  • China Glaze – Get Outta My Space
  • Revlon – Stiletto
  • Stamping Plate – Moyou Suki 10
  • Hit The Bottle – Black
  • Seche Vite
  • Makeup Sponge

For the gradient I used Stiletto, Elaine, Amethyst and Get Outta My Space, then a coat of Seche Vite.

When that had dried I used Black Hit The Bottle stamping polish and Moyou Suki plate 10 for the spiders and webs then another coat of SV to finish it off.

I have so many ideas for Halloween nail art that I think it’s going to take me all month to share them all! 🙂

Stamping Plate BP-17

Stamping Plate BP-17

I used Stamping Plate BP-17 from Born Pretty, along with Desert Valley for the leadlighting. I’m so glad I have finally used this polish! I really wish I had read some reviews about the stuff before purchasing it, to say it’s not a nice polish would be a huge understatement! But a little bit of it works well for this 🙂

I really like the way this looks outside!
