For this month's prompt, I decided to create a dark and abstract Halloween manicure. This is what resulted:
In order to complete this manicure, I began with one coat of OPI's In My Santa Suit. I know it's meant to be more of a Christmas shade, but I thought it would work beautifully with OPI's Emotions (which is another polish from the same Christmas collection, haha).
| Excuse the messy pinkie, the texture polish refused to come away from my cuticles! |
After In My Santa Suit had dried, I sponged on a gradient using Wet n' Wild's Black Cream polish on my ring fingers. I applied five pieces of striping tape to each nail (one nail at a time) and painted one thick coat of Emotions over each nail, removing the striping tape right after.
| Here's another view in natural light. |
Once I had cleaned up my manicure (the gradient and striping process proved to be very messy and the texture polish did not want to come off of my skin), I applied top coat to my ring fingers only.
What do you think? I'm excited to see how other people ran with this month's prompt. Please feel free to leave a comment :).
Thanks for stopping by and have a happy Halloween!
