Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Halloween themed TV or movie inspired

2014 favorite button | Be Happy And Buy PolishGood morning everyone! I know yesterday I talked about movies that scared me; today for my nails I just had to do a movie that still scares me every time I watch it: It the Movie. Of course, nothing compares to the book, which took me forever to finish because I’m a big skeerdy-cat, but Pennywise the Clown played by Tim Curry was freaky as all get out!

I’ve used all Sinful Colors polishes for this look, too many to name, frankly. My index finger is a simple red balloon, as in the movie Pennywise taunts Richie with a red balloon. My middle finger represents Pennywise’s clown outfit; my ring finger is Pennywise (obviously); my pinky is supposed to be Pennywise’s hand on the book (that’s hard to tell though).

It’s the last day, let’s see what everyone else has done:

I hope you’ve enjoyed the challenge this time around! If you missed anything, go check out my classic orange & black, pumpkin faces, and Freddy Krueger nails. Have a great Halloween today everyone!

Halloween Nail Art Challenge: Halloween Villains

Good morning, wonderful readers! This morning I feel and sound like Anne Ramsey (aka Mama Fratelli from The Goonies). I’m all hunched over because I hurt my neck sleeping, and my cold has deepened my voice to quite the manly tone. LOL! Anyway, I have Halloween Villains nail art for you!

When I was thinking of today’s and tomorrow’s prompt, one thought kept coming back to me…What movies scared me as a kid? Well, the first movie I remembered getting scared by was Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. You laugh, but I was maybe 4 or 5 and that was scary sh*t! Then I remember watching House as a kid – a little older, I think. And that was really freaky! Fast forward a few years of not watching scary movies, and one of my friends talks me into watching Nightmare on Elm Street. Well, that was a mistake! I couldn’t sleep very well for days, and I definitely couldn’t take a bath!

So anyway, long story short, I just had to do Freddy Krueger nail art for today! I’ve used all OPI polishes for this look. The index finger is You’re So Vain-illa with Over & Over A-Gwen. I waited for the polish to tacky-dry and then pulled it every which way. (I saw this technique on the Daily Nail, but I have searched and searched her website and can’t find it again!) On my middle and ring fingers, I started with Got the Blues for Red and then freehanded stripes of Nein Nein Okay Fine on top. On my pinky, I’ve used You Don’t Know Jacques as base of the glove, then used This Gown Needs a Crown for the blades, and outlined with Black Onyx.

I started with two coats of China Glaze Life Preserver, the most perfect pumpkin color ever! I then used China Glaze Liquid Leather for the faces, and If In Doubt, Surf It Out as accent shadowing.

Let’s see more pumpkin faces:

I’d love to know what you think of this simple but fun manicure! Tomorrow’s prompt is “Halloween Villains” so until then,

I started off with two coats of NYC New York Color Animal Instinct, and then I just decided to free hand stripes with NYC New York Color Black Elixir. It didn’t come out too shabby, did it?
