Halloween Nails

I know it's a little late (wasn't feeling too hot), but I wanted to share this Halloween mani with you since I didn't enter any Halloween contests. I really like how this turned out!

I used ChG Spellbound for the tips, Claire's Orange U Glad 2 C Me? for the orange, and I used some loose sparkles (I got like 12 colors for $1.99 on clearance at Micheal's!). For the sparkles I drew a stripe of clear polish along the smile line and 'dusted' some sparkles on with a brush. I used this tutorial and this video:


I drew 'webs' on my ring fingers with a thin painter's brush and I used Lippmann Fade to Black. Then put in little stripes of sparkles too. Enjoy!

This was a collar I found for Bella the day of Halloween at JoAnn Fabrics for like $3.99! It was for a medium-sized dog (which she is not), but she can't have any toys (because she destroys all of them) so I spoil her with collars :) The star *did* light up, but the battery fell out of it.

Thanks for looking!

Hope you all had a nice Halloween!

Recent 'halloween' haul & NOTD

I managed to pick up the following four at one trip to a CVS down the street. How lucky was that?

Milani Enchantment, Fairy Tale, Spellbinding, and WnW Fantasy Makers Black Magic

This was my first Lippman that I bought and it was on clearance at Bath & Body Works! Fade to Black covered in one coat!

Then 2 coats of WnW Black Magic

I loved this mani! I think I should have painted BM from left to right as well as normally. Then I would have gotten more different 'confetti' style.

I think that BM is an almost dupe to Jesse's Girl Confetti. It might have more blues and purples. But I really like this one and it was easy to find and cheap! $1.99, I think.

I actually wore Fairy Tale the other day and I thought I took pics, but I didn't. I think I like it more than Illamasqua Phallic. It covered in 2 coats and it lasted about 5 days!

Thanks for looking
