It’s not like you need an excuse to go all out with your nails. But if you do, Halloween is the perfect chance. There are so many nail art options out there for spooky season, it can be hard to narrow it down to one choice. Struggling to decide? Here’s some Halloween nail inspiration!
What You’ll Need
Depending on the design you opt for, you’ll need:
A selection of the perfect Halloween nail colours (including top coat and nail coat, obviously)
A Halloween Nail Art Stamping Plate (We love this one from MoYou)
A thin nail art brush
Halloween Nail Inspiration for 2022
Pumpkin Nails
Paint your nails in an orange shade like CND Vinylux - Electric Orange, except the fourth nail. Use a nude shade like MoYou Premium Nail Polish - In the Nude for the fourth nail. Use the pumpkin design from the nail stamper on that nail. Voila, the perfect spooky pumpkin design that also looks kind of cute if you ask us.
Ghost French Tips
Any time is a good time for a French manicure. That’s why this cute and chic manicure has made it onto our list of Halloween nail inspiration.
Paint your nails in a chic nude nail colour like CND Vinylux - Uncovered. Paint the tips black. We think CND Vinylux - Black Pool is perfect. Then use the ghost design from the nail stamper on random nails for a nod to spooky season!
Minimalist Halloween Nail Inspiration
If you like your manicures understated and natural, you can still have that. Just paint each nail in your favourite nude polish then add a small design from the nail stamper onto a few (or all) of your nails.
Nude Spider Web Nails
If you want your nails to look chic but you still want to celebrate Halloween, try this design. Paint your nails with a nude nail polish then add strategic spider webs. Placing them near the nail plate or tips can look great.
If you want to go bolder, you can try combining spider webs with a classic Halloween colour like red, green, or purple. Check out our range for the perfect nail colours.
Dripping Blood Vampire Nails
Last but certainly not least, try this Halloween nail inspiration on for size. It’s the perfect design for those who want to get a little creative. Here’s how to get a dripping blood effect.
Paint your nails white. We love MoYou Premium Nail Polish - White Knight.
To create a dripping blood effect, make three red dots in a triangle shape on your nail. Use a true red like CND Vinylux - Rouge Red
Take a thin nail art brush and join the dots together. Draw thin lines to connect the dots.
Colour in the bottom of the nail in red.
Complete the blood dripping effect by using your dotting tool to draw at dot at the top of the nail. Use your brush to draw a point at one end and turn it into a drop shape.
Wait for your nails to dry then add a top coat.
