40 Great Nail Ideas - Halloween

Hi Goddesses

And welcome to Halloween!   This is the only Halloween mani I am posting this year.  That wasn't my plan, I had quite a lot of ideas in my head, and lots of lusty purples to use, but it's coincided with a major life re-evaluation which has seen me paint my nails only 3 times in the last 4 weeks.  I know!   I am not planning to quit blogging, but I will be posting less (hopefully with higher artistic quality) as I work out how to be an adult and what to do with my life.

Well, that was a happy start, wasn't it!  lol.  Let's look back on Orange, Purple and Green week, which saw some gawjus manis.  Such fabulous colours.

So a few weeks ago, when I did this, it wasn't going to be my only Halloween mani.  Now that it is, it seems a shit offering, but there was great THOUGHT behind it haha.

You may remember during Digital Dozen Autumn Week I was mulling over what made something what it was, the colour or the image, and I did this mani at roughly the same time.  I wanted to know, if I did a Halloween mani in non-traditional colours, would it still look as good?

Well, this has a certain old 1930's black and white scary movie vibe to it, but to me it does lose something without an amazing gradient night sky.   And the white cat just looks wrong lol.  But hey, no one else will have a done a mani like this!

This mani uses the UberChic Halloween 01 plate which I was sent for review and LURVE.

Digit-al Dozen DOES Autumn - UberChic Halloween 01 Decals

Hi Goddesses

One of the things I love most about the Digit-al Dozen, is how each month it encourages me to be more adventurous and less lazy than I normally am.  Today is a relatively epic mani, and normally, I wouldn't spend so much time on a mani.  I'm glad I did though, as I loved this one sooooo much.

This mani used far too many polishes to list, and a lot of them are polishes I only keep to use at this time of year!  The base is OPI Be There In A Prosecco.

I was lucky enough to be sent the UberChic Halloween 01 plate a couple of weeks ago, and I used my UberMat to make these amazing decals.

This time, the decals were MUCH easier, as I cut them down to size before applying them to each nail.  I also cut my UberMat in half to help it fit on my desk better but sssssh, don't tell anyone!

I was sent this plate by UberChic for my honest review, and as ever, the etching was perfect for effortless stamping.  UberChic will now be stocked in the UK by She Sells Seashells, which is great news.

Now, when you look at what the other ladies did, pay special attention to Laurie from Dressed Up Digits.  Laurie couldn't believe we'd done pretty much the same mani as usually we have very different tastes lol.  Hers rocks, so be sure to check it out.
