wattIt’s the spooky season, and if you’re not ready yet, it’s time to start thinking about your Halloween manicure. This year, we’re bookmarking Halloween nails that feel both vampire-y and versatile (so they’ll last well past the 31st). Among the plethora of Halloween nails, we’re intercepting a variety of simple looks using moody colors like black and crimson. That said, we’re also experimenting with theme colors (like pumpkin orange) and pairing them with trendy technology like 3D manicure.
While there’s nothing wrong with embracing traditional Halloween themes, we’ve rounded up some unique options for you to celebrate the season in a different way. Next, find some of our favorite Halloween manicures to try.
1. Pumpkin Orange with Chrome Decoration
Orange is the star of this Los Angeles manicurist’s outfit Mariel’s @nailsssbymarsbut it’s made in a cool way thanks to the jelly-like pumpkin-colored base paired with silver 3D embellishments. It’s equally bold, eye-catching, and will look great whether you’re wearing a costume or not. If you don’t like longer nails, you can do similar 3D art on shorter nails and it will still look just as good.
