Directions

  1. Create green slime nails as a nod to Ghostbusters.
  2. Design dainty amber pumpkins for a luxe tortoiseshell effect.
  3. Apply a black-as-night celestial design using nail decals and tweezers.
  4. Create a vampire blood effect dripping up from the base of pale pink stiletto nails, or paint as French tips with a downward drip.
  5. Paint mismatched nails using a classic black, white, and orange palette for a minimal Halloween look.
  6. Apply teeny, tiny bat decals against lilac polish, ensuring the polish is completely dry first.
