Halloween Ready Nails - CLICK TO TWEET!

Very classic halloween staple, the Jack-O-Lantern! For this mani I used the plastic bag technique using variations of orange nail polishes, and then used black acrylic paints to sketch all my pumpkins.

You won't believe how easy it was!

What is more creepy for Halloween that a scene of foggy night at a graveyard?! Ohh you wouldn't caught me there for nothing! For this manicure I started with a gradient using white and purple nail polishes. After that, I used black acrylic paint (once again! I sense a pattern here lol) and draw thumb stones shapes, crosses and branches. Finishing with a matte top coat to add that cold feeling, but it can be wear with a glossy top as well.

Spider Web

Black Cats

Well, not everything has to be creepy, right? You can add a touch of glam to your manicure. For this design I went with a nude shade as my base and on top I added some black cat shapes and a few black stones to glam it up.

Glitter Skull

Let me talk about the outfit. This is a first for me so be kind and let me know what you think :). Number one item to get are some boots, oh I love to wear them with just about anything. I think it adds statement to any outfit. I do feel pretty while wearing boots, thats a fact lol. This ones I got from Kress Stores in Puerto Rico last year.


Going up, some skinny jeans, a little warm on the inside, and a super comfy plaid shirt. A very basic piece of clothing to have this season. You can wear it as is or layered over other shirts! I really love this one I got from Gabriel Brothers, and for $7.99...you can not beat that!

This jeans are one of my favorites, skinny jeans from Rainbow Stores. They are very comfortable and supper fitting! And me, I always have trouble finding the perfect jean.


Now lets focus on my nails! One of the classic trends for fall is animal print. It is so easy to create, and it looks so classy. I decided to go with green, because lets face it, it is an unexpected color to use, and what better time to let it be than fall. I used Wet n' Wild in "  ". For the white I used Sally Hansen "White On" and with black polish and a dotting tool, I created the animal print design.


Here is how I did it:



I believe in achieving a look with what you have. It doesn't have to be expensive, and you can always work with what your closet provides. So have fun with what you have and get creative! And don't forget to style yourself with a beautiful mani!

I think both alternatives serves well their purposes. Both of them really protects your cuticles and skin around nails from the messy masterpieces. You can choose which one works the best, depending on the nail art you are creating and on how many nails you need to use it. That is the main factor I'll take into consideration when deciding which one to use. 

I hope you find this post helpful. Let me know what you think! And remember to keep those nails pretty! Thank you for reading and happy painting!

This one is a beautiful bubblegum pink, the pink that everyone wants to have in their collection. It has a creamy formula, very pigmented and it builds up nicely in two coats. Application was very easy, and at the very moment you begin to apply the color, you can already see how its going to look at the end. If you want to know about durability, I rocked this shade for almost a week! (and thats to much for me lol) without any chipping. Yes, I used a fast drying top coat over it. 

This shade is in between an orange and a peachy shade. This one has a creme formula as well, with the difference that this one dries matte. Drying time was pretty fast (being matte you can tell when it starts to turn matte), by the time I was done with my pinky, the thumb was already dry. That's how fast it was. It is gorgeous to wear with its matte finish, or if you prefer to add a top coat that is fine too. Will absolutely be a good shade to wear this upcoming fall season. 

Ok, so a blue that looks like a lilac?! Or viceversa? This is the impression I got from this shade and I loved it! Another creme formula, in the video (that I linked above or you can click here to watch) It looks like a pretty soft purple/lilac shade, as well as in person, but depending on the lights it shows up as a gorgeous sky blue. I am not mad at either of them. All the pictures show blue, but Im telling you, this one has a lilac undertone to it. It's so pretty. And it wears beautifully. 

This is your basic medium light gray. And as for basic I mean it in a very good way! That gray polish you look for but never find the perfect shade, this one was it for me. It looks light without loosing its gray-ness. Cream formula, opaque in two easy coats. Gorgeous for fall. 

My favorite of all! Deep purple shade that actually looks purple and not black! This one has a gel like formula, it applies so nicely on the nails and dries super quick. Now, I know I am going to sound crazy with this, but as I was using it, I sensed a smell like grapes, yeah must have been my mind playing tricks lol, but it had a berry feeling. Two easy coats led to a beautiful deep purple manicure, perfect for fall, and for any occasion!

Classic chic red polish. This one also has a gel like formula. It builds up super gorgeous on the nail. It almost have like a pink undertone which balances it deepness providing the perfect red looking polish. 

**Stay tune for some nail art I did with these babies!! Posting the soon!!**
