Twinsie Tuesday: Halloween Inspired!

Hey lovelies! Sorry about the late post, I'm currently stuck in California, waiting out the hurricane on the East Coast. I pray everyone's doing well over there!! :/ I came to Cali for a wedding [which was amazing!] and my plane back got cancelled, so... here I am! Worse places to be, right? ;] Anyway, today I have my Halloween inspired mani to show you today. I planned on wearing this on actual Halloween, but I don't have a good blood red polish with me here. #nailpolishproblems. I've seen this over on a lot of polish blogs recently and I have no idea who came up with this idea [let me know if you do!], but I loved the idea and figured I could totally get away with this! So here's my blood dripping mani using Essie's Clutch Me if You Can on bare nails.

Heehee.. I love this one! So perfect and really really easy. I just did mine with one end of a bobby pin:]

Go look at my Twinsie's manis today to get spooked out!

Last Halloween Franken!: Hocus Pocus

 I'm a little sad :[ This is my last franken for this Halloween! But I'm really happy with how they all came out, so it evens out, right?

3 coats, but I could allllllllllllllmost get away with 2.

What I used: Love & Beauty Green, Rust [darker version] & Rust [lighter version] for as the glitter, with a little Milani Red Sparkle, then some dark green that I don't remember, and Wet n' Wild Black Creme. 

Close up!!

Bye bye, Halloween frankens! It was fun while it lasted:]

Candy Corn & Spiderwebs

Ready for some [super amateur] nail art? So I did my housemate's nails a few days ago, she wanted candy corn nails. Well, she let me be a creeper & take pictures of her hand so I could show you guys!

I used Sally Hansen White On for the white, NYC Spring Street for the orange, and Sally Hansen Lightening for the yellow. Then I topped them off with the glow in the dark polish from Fantasy Makers!

Now my nails:

I used a base of Revlon Aloof, then stamped the spiderwebs in Wet n' Wild Black Creme & the orange spiders in NYC Spring Street, & topped it all off with that same glow in the dark polish.

Little better than those decals, right? haha

2 Halloween Fails :[

Hi everyone! So I've been trying to do Halloween themed manis this week & some came out better than others hahaha.. Here's some fails for your viewing pleasure:

This was my base of 1 coat NOPI Traffic Cone & 2 coats Creepy Pumpkin. I actually liked this layering combo a lot, I should have left it :/ 

Then I put on the Jellies decals I got from Rite Aid... mistake! They would NOT stay down with me, even after sooo much top coat. The design was really cute, but the decals kept falling off [I woke up with one in my hair & one on the bottom of my foot.. welp!]

Then, I tried to do the bloody fingerprint mani that I saw here! Except I tried to do the finger prints in City Color Dark Red & it came out too pink:[ (the base color is Revlon Aloof, btw)

Can't win them all, right? It's okay, I'll be posting some not so fails later today & throughout the weekend:]

Franken: This is Halloween

Hi, everyone! I'm super excited to show this fraken today, I think it's so Halloweeny:] Hence the name This is Halloween! I started with a base of Sinful Colors All About You & added this burnt orange glitter I got from ebay, Red Rose & Black glitter from Art Institute Glitter, then Sinful Colors Call You Later for some contrast with the green glitter:] Okay, less talking, more pictures!

Blurred to show the sparkliness.

This is 2 coats of polish with like 4 coats of top coat... it kept sucking the top coat up!!

So what do you think?? Halloweeny enough?:]

Phantom + Cauldron Drippings

Hi! I have another Halloween mani for you today:] I finally found some Fright Night Claw polishes yesterday at Target [side note, my Rite Aid FINALLY put out the pumpkin polishes today]. So I had to put it on, clearly.

It's a really pretty shimmery gray.. There's these like flecks of pink & blue in there.

Then, I added Lynnderella's Cauldron Drippings. This polish is insane, with green, purple, blue, black, white, gold, & then a LOT of orange glitter in so many shapes & sizes.. Insane & gorgeous & Halloween in a bottle.

& because I can't leave anything alone, I stamped [with Wet n' Wild Black] a spiderweb on my tips. It didn't look bad, but it wasn't very noticeable.. Oh well.

Hmm. I need to try this stamp over something else..

Zombie Flesh Franken!

Hey, guys! Today I have one of my favorite frankens for you:] It's part of my Halloween franken series I'm doing for myself haha. Zombie Flesh is a dirty gray with purple, green, & black glitter; & purple & green hex glitter. 

2 coats, if I remember correctly!

I used Love & Beauty's Green, Magenta, & Purple/Black [all glitters], Revlon Smoky Canvas [for the dirtiness of it], Sally Hansen Whirlwind White, and Wet n' Wild Black Creme.

Close up of the glitter!

I really like this one, it's a little bit creepy to me, but in a good way:] I have a few Halloweeny frankens that I can't wait to show here this coming week!!
