Halloween Bits And Bobs

I couldn't settle on one final Halloween design for this year, so I did a bit of nearly everything! 
I used little bits of China Glaze None of Your Risky Business, China Glaze Treble Maker, China Glaze Boho Blues, China Glaze Plur-Ple, China Glaze Glow With The Flow, Zoya Thandie, and China Glaze Street Style Princess.

Full Moon

Some full moon nails, complete with howling wolf. I actually wanted these to be more Halloween-y than they ended up turning out. I used China Glaze One Track Mind, China Glaze Born To Rule, LA Splash Blowfish Blue, Xtreme Wear Dabbler, Xtreme Wear Pink-Grape Fruit, and Zoya Aspen.

Witchy

These are my first ever witch nails! I've always had trouble coming up with witch designs, so I made these pretty simple. I used China Glaze None Of Your  Risky Business, China Glaze Lip Smackin' Good, and China Glaze Let's Jam.

Elegant Skull

 Another Halloween manicure for today and I thought I would do something with a different tone than I usually do for these holiday manis. I'm very happy with these nails, with the exception of my pointer; I just don't think it fits in with the rest of the nails. I used China Glaze Street Style Princess, China Glaze Seduce Me, Xtreme Wear Retro Grade, and Xtreme Wear With The Beat. I also added some glitter on my pinky using China Glaze Put A Bow On It and Xtreme Wear Pink-y Ring.

Glittering Webs

Here are some cute and quick webs that I did pretty last minute because I needed to paint my nails but could not think of what to do. I ended up loving these way more than I expected and the holo, which is a bit difficult to capture in these photos, is awesome. The base is China Glaze I Just Canterlot and I added the glitter gradient using China Glaze  Dawn of a New Reign.

Marbled Jack O' Lanterns

For my first spooky nails of the year, I decided to paint something I haven't done in quite a while, jack o lanterns. To mix these up a little bit, I started with a stripey orange watermarble base. I love the little peak of marble, but I do wish I had done the stripes vertical. The marble is China Glaze None of Your Risky Business, China Glaze Roguish Red, OPI A Roll In The Hague, Zoya Darcy and Color Club Disco's Not Dead.

Revamped Vampire

 For these Halloween nails I wanted to do a new take on an old vampire manicure of mine. I really liked the concept of the original design, but the execution is a bit laughable. It's really funny looking back at those nails because I remember being so insanely proud of them at the time. I love my recreation now, but who knows, maybe I'll be embarrassed to look at these too in another four years.

The original manicure:

Boo-tiful

Today I have a punny Halloween manicure. While I was thinking up ideas I couldn't get "boo-tiful" out of my head for some reason, so I decided to paint some blushing ghosts to go along with the pun. In the end this was really just an excuse for me to paint some cute ghosts again. The gradient is Xtreme Wear Flirt, China Glaze Nice Caboose!, China Glaze Giver's Theme, and Xtreme Wear Pinch Of Punch.

Spooky Skeleton

 Today's Halloween nail art is a spooky scary skeleton across my nails. I started running out of room towards the bottom, so he doesn't really have feet and his legs are pretty stumpy. This took me under an hour to do from start to finish, which is incredibly rare for me with a full design like this. The base is China Glaze Haunting.

Skulls

Here's my first "spooky" Halloween manicure of the year, a bunch of cute little skulls on a beautiful gradient. The polishes for the gradient are Xteme Wear Painted Lady, China Glaze Mix And Mingle, China Glaze Let's Jam, Color Club Diggin' The Dancing Queen, and Color Club Hot Hot Hot Pants.

Spooky Graveyard

Today's Halloween manicure is a spooky graveyard setting. I did something a little similar to this a few years ago, but it had haunted houses as well. For the base I did a gradient of China Glaze History of the World, and Zoya Tove.

Halloween Candy

Today I have a candy mani, because everyone knows that Halloween is all about the candy. The bases I used are  OPI You're Such A Budapest, Zoya Tiana, and Zoya Cole. For the candy I pretty much just grabbed the closest polishes I had. I really liked how this one came out, I can't believe it's taken me so long to paint a candy design!

Cute Ghosts

Hello! It's my first Halloween manicure of the year. From now until the end of the month, all nails will have a spooky theme, starting with these cute ghosts! This design is based on an image I stumbled upon online. The base is Zoya Dovima. These adorable little guys also glow in the dark, I just wasn't able to photograph it.

Spiders And Webs

 Hello! Happy Halloween! This is the manicure that I wore today. The base is Zoya Dovima, and the silver is Essie No Place Like Chrome. For the spiders I used China Glaze Running In Circles, Riveting, and Xtreme Wear Purple Pizzazz.

Sally's Dress

Today I have a bit of a Halloween manicure. This design is inspired by Sally's dress from The Nightmare Before Christmas. The good thing about Sally's dress is that the lines are all wonky, so you don't have to worry about painting neatly. The grey is Revlon Iconic, the purple is China Glaze Giver's Theme, and the yellow is China Glaze Metro Pollen-Tin. The green color I made by mixing some polishes together.

Slime Drip Manicure

Hello!  Here's a Halloween drip manicure! I was going to paint the drips on every nail, but I really wanted to use Orly Monster Mash, which is the glitter on my pointer and pinky. For the green I used China Glaze Grass Is Lime Greener.

Happy Halloween!

 Hello, everyone! I'm posting this pretty late, in fact Halloween's almost over! For my nail art today I decided to paint a medley of monsters. On my pointer is a witch, and on my middle finger is a werewolf. My ring finger is a mummy, and my pinky is a zombie. On my thumb I have Jason's hockey mask. I hope you all had a fantastic Halloween!
Pointer: Base is Xtreme Wear Green With Envy. The eyes are Orly Mellow Yellow with China Glaze Red Satin. Her hat is OPI Vant To Bite My Neck?
Middle: The base is a China Glaze Mahogany Magic mized with some white. The darker brown is Revlon Hot For Chocolate.
Ring: The mummy is just black and white with a bit of Mahogany Magic sponged on it to make the wrappings look old and gross.
Pinky: The base is a lightened Revlon Trendy. The eyes are Zoya Darcy, and the blood is China Glaze Merry Berry.
Thumb: The red is China Glaze Red Satin.
