Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Favorite

It's been fun guys, but the HNAC has officially come to an end. The final theme was to re-create your favorite manicure or create a Halloween manicure of your own. My nails technically weren't apart of the challenge, but they are a re-creation. I re-created my killer manicure which can be seen Here, and the tutorial for it is here.

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Ghosts

Hello to all! We are slowly approaching the end of the Halloween nail art challenge *cries*, but its okay because I had so much fun doing all of the different themes. Today's theme was ghosts.

At first I was going to do a cute lil Casper the friendly ghost, but by time I got home from football I was tired as heck and took the easy way out. I think these ghosts are sooooo cute yet simple. What do you think?

Killer Manicure *Very pic heavy & Graphic*

Good afternoon guys, hope you are having a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Today's post is somewhat a part two of my blood manicure from the Halloween challenge which can be found here, but even more gruesome in my opinion.

I woke up yesterday morning and decided to check out some Halloween manicures on Youtube. I seen many inspiration such as broken nails, stapled nails, and other nail art but I still wanted to give something else. My "killer" manicure was inspired by all of the good old Halloween movies where the murderer is thought to be dead or buried alive, but just when you least expect it "POW!" ; stabbed in the back, literally.

I literally took HUNDREDS of photos of this manicure but these were the "few" that I selected.

When I was taking these pictures it reminded me of my favorite movie series ever which is Child's Play/ Chucky. I was literally about 5 when I started watching these movies, and I used to sit there and laugh my head off every time he cursed or killed somebody... I don't know what that says about my mind but umm... Don't Judge me hahahaha! I <3 Chucky!!!

Do you love this craziness? Would you like to know how I accomplished this? Let me know.

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Spiders

I was on the bus today on my way home from school, when this girl tapped me on my shoulder and was freaking out. I had no idea why until she told me there was a HUGE spider climbing on me. I slapped that sucker off so quick and ran for my life. I'm deathly afraid of pretty much any insects, but I guess that was its way of reminding me to do today's Halloween nail art challenge theme which is indeed spiders.

 I used one coat of China Glaze's Liquid Crystal over one coat of Ozotic 743, and hand drew the spiders with black acrylic paint.

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Bats

Hey guys! Today is another Halloween nail art challenge day and I took a different route with my nails that I have never done.

I promise you I tried SO HARD to draw today's theme which is a bat, but that was an EXTREMELY epic fail. So then I thought of cutting out a stencil of a bat instead, but I made it waaay to big. So then I got this bright idea.....

I just stuck that sucker on with some nail polish and it worked like a charm. I personally love the originality of this and the look it gave my nails because I'm not one to try crazy things with my nails, but I think I should try more often. Tell me what you think :).

Don't forget to check out these other awesome manicures!

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Tombstones

Oh my gosh guys I completely forgot about today's nail art challenge! I thought it was tomorrow instead of today and I felt horrible when I logged on and seen everyone's beautiful manicures. So I literally JUST slapped something together in five minutes just to have the post up in time.

Today's theme is tombstones, so I just drew a bunch of tree's and tombstones over my current manicure. I actually like this color as a background, seems very magical!

Check out these other blogger's designs!

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Candy Corn

Good afternoon beautiful junkies! Hope you're excited and ready to see today's theme for the halloween nail art challenge which is candy corn. I have never eaten this stuff in my life but the name a lone is a huge turn off for me.

Instead of doing all of my nails to look like candy corn, I did my nails inspired by the colors of it. Tell me what you think!

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Spiderwebs

Good morning beautiful polish junkies & welcome to the third instalment of the halloween nail art challenge. Today's theme is spiderwebs. At first, I was stumped and didn't know what the heck to do because I knew the only way I could achieve the look I wanted, I would need a halloween stamping plate which I do not have. So then I took myself to trusty old Google and Youtube and came up with this!

 I got bored so I decided to add some special effects, not too shabby don't you think? :)

Tell me what you think and don't forget to check out the other awesome nails below!

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Blood

Hello to my beautiful junkies, new and old, and welcome to round two of the Halloween Nail Art Challenge. Today's theme is blood!

This splatter manicure was inspired by all the fans of the show Dexter. Since I don't watch this show, I thought I might as well take a stab (no pun intended) at it too since the opportunity presented itself. The colors I used to achieve this look is Orly's Decades of Dysfunction and Grave Mistake from the limited edition Dark Shadows collection. Grave mistake is the perfect blood red & I avoided using top coat to make it look more realistic.

Check out what these other awesome bloggers came up with for their blood manicures and have a nice day!

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Pumpkins

I can't believe it's October already! Is it just me or has this year flown by quickly?! When most people think of the month of October the first thing that comes to mind is halloween, and for the whole month I will be participating in my first nail art challenge. I hope I can keep up with it since it is every 4 days instead of everyday, because I know I have been slacking off lately.

Today's theme is pumpkins, & what is Halloween without jack-o-lanterns? I *attempted* to make different expressions on each nail and I think it would have been great.... up until it came time to draw the leaves. I like the details I came up with for the basic pumpkin design, but clearly I am no artist.

Even though it's not the greatest manicure, I really had fun doing this and can't wait to see what else I can come up with for future days. If you want to join in it's not too late ! Have fun and don't forget to check out everyone else's awesome pumpkins for today!

Peace & Love,
