13 Days of Halloween - Blood

Hi Goddesses



And welcome to a Halloweenfest!  It's not quite Halloween EVERY day til the end of October, but pretty close.  As I mentioned in another post, I wanted to try and get back to the gruesome, gothic heart of Halloween, and not the candy-coated American version.




Today's mani is very simple and is a testament to the power of a polish to inspire.  




Said polish is the brilliantly named, You've Got Red On You by Cadillacquer, a gothic burdundy-black polish with red glitters.




I ended up wearing mine matte, and then played on the name and added some blood using OPI Cinnamon Sweet.



I wanted my letters to look rough and bloody, so I used a thin dotting tool rather than a brush.



I kinda like it :)
