Cute Halloween Nail Art

Hello everyone! I haven't posted in a while (oh the joys of school) but I thought I'd share a quick post on some fun Halloween inspired nail art. I definitely did not come up with these designs myself (except maybe the pumpkin ones which aren't even that nice) and I got my inspiration from IHaveACupcake and cutepolish on Youtube. They both have tutorials which I semi-followed to get this look but as you can see, I deviated a little so feel free to add your own touches and flare (I sound like I changed the designs on purpose but really it was probably because I messed up and tried to fix it haha!).


I used the following nail polishes (shown below in order listed):
-Black: Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color 370 Black Out
-Orange: Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Nail Color 150 Sun Kissed
-White: Orly Nail Polish White Tips #42001
-Green: Orly Nail Polish Coachella Dweller
-Red: Forever 21 Red Sangria Nail Polish
-Yellow: Orly Nail Polish Lemonade
-Top coat: Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Nail Coat



I used some cheap dotting tools (basically little sticks with circles on the ends) to do the eyes but really you can use a toothpick or bobby pin which I've used before and they work just as well.  Oh and please don't mind the fact that my hands are incredibly dry and gross and that I have a nasty paper-cut-looking cute on my index finger (which I got from my friends broken phone screen .. WHO KNEW THOSE THINGS COULD CUT YOU IF YOU SIMPLY BRUSH UP ON THEM??)


Let me know what you think of these and what you're going to be for Halloween if you're dressing up in the comment section! Last year I went trick-o-treating with my friend (don't ask how old I am LOL because the answer is too old) but she's in Asia this year so I don't know what I'm going to do :(
