Candy Corn Bling

Another request and classic look is Candy Corns, but I wanted to change it up a bit rather than just paint candy on my nails.
so I came up with this super simple design, 
but I love it, looks super sweet,
like my nails were just dipped in sugar!





PRODUCTS USED:
Sinful Colors Base Coat
Sally Hansen's Diamond Strength Nail Lacquer in - First Dance
!.5 mm Rhinestones in Clear, Orange & Yellow
Martha Stewart Bullion Beads in - Fire Opal, Yellow Barite, & Clear
Sally's Beauty Secrets Top Coat






I do hope you enjoyed my Halloween nails series!

Have a very safe & Happy Halloween!!
PHEW, I'm tired... I'm gonna go pass out now!!

Vampire

Another highly requested look was a vampire inspired look.
I'm obsessed with all things Vampire, 
so this was an obvious design for me to do even without the requests.
The tough decision was choosing just one design. 
I probably had about 10 ideas, but I narrowed it down to 3.

Everything inspired these looks from movies, to books, to photos...
this first one was heavily influenced by The Vampire Diaries





 Gothic Vampiress, long, pointed Jet Black nails, 
this is a real simple look, but very effective in full costume.


I'd have to say that True Blood inspired this look
Aptly named, FangBanger, fangs with dripping blood and two pierced nails with single drop beads to add to the effect, and of course nothing would be complete without the little advertisement of Bite Me to let all the blood suckers know you are ready for the taking.

I'll add the rest of my ideas in my playbook 
and save em for next year ;) and in the meantime, if you'd like to see the full tutorial on how I achieved the first look, then please head yo my YouTube channel,

" IT "

With today's look,
I've come to the conclusion that I really do suck at painting tiny faces on nails. 
LOL

Scary clown, and in particular, 
Pennywise the Clown from Stephen King's IT 
was requested alot and I really wanted to get it out there, 
so I apologize for my mediocre portrait skills 
But hey, at least you can tell what and you who is,
so it aint all that bad LOL
