Halloween Spider Nails


 
These are my Halloween Spider nails that didn't turn out quite so perfect but look pretty funky from afar lol. Really quick and easy to do and cute with a black dress, smokey eyes and a little spider hair piece, for the person who doesn't want to dress up, but doesn't want to be boring either :)
 
First I painted all my nails in Gosh 'Holographic' nail polish that I used in my previous blog post. This colour is so flipping cool and the picture does not do it justice!
 
 
 
I dipped the point of a pen in black nail polish and drew small curvy lines diagonally on my thumb and ring finger. I would suggest using a skewer or tooth pick but I didn't have any. You can also leave it here is you aren't going for a Halloween look as I think this looks pretty cool as it is!
 
 
 
 
I then drew as-thin-as-possible black lines through the curvy lines to make the web-ish look! I messed up and had to re-do this twice so don't worry if you do that's what nail polish remover and patience is for :)
 
 
 
I decided to take it a step further and add an itsy bitsy spider on my index finger, which didn't turn out the healthiest looking of spiders, but oh well! For this I painted a small blob and dragged out 6 small legs with the same pen.
 
 
Finish with a clear top coat and there ya go! Hope you enjoy and Happy Halloweeeeeen 💀

Easy Sparkling Leopard Nails


 
Coral and silver leopard print nails :) Easier than they look.


These nails are so pretty and are surprisingly easy to do! If you don't like the coral colour you can change them up, and you can alter them to what you'd like. They can spice up a boring pair of hands and if you're being a cat or a leopard for Halloween, you're sorted! The best part is they look more difficult than they actually are - If I can do it you can do It!

First I painted two coats of Miss Sporty, number 326 on all fingers.



I then used a cotton bud to paint large dots on my ring finger and my thumb. I first used a white nail polish as a base for Gosh's 'Holographic' Nail Polish. This colour is so gorgeous and sparkly, especially in the light.



 
I dipped the tip of a pen in black nail polish and drew semi-circles around the dots and added dots or squiggly lines around them.
 
 
 

I then added the same 'Holographic' nail polish on the tips of the rest of the nails, which took longer than I thought to get right!



This step is optional but I took the pen dipped in black polish again and drew a small heart on my index finger but I think it looks just as nice without it.



Hope you all have fun recreating this look and leave requests below if you have any
