Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare the nails.
- File and shape your nails to the desired length.
- Push back the cuticles and buff the surface of each nail.
- Apply a base coat to all nails to protect the natural nail.
2
Create the background.
- Paint some nails with black polish and others with green polish as the base color.
- Allow the base colors to dry completely.
3
Add the Halloween designs.
- Use fine nail art brushes to paint tree silhouettes and a moon on the green nails.
- Paint pumpkin faces using the orange polish on one or more black nails.
- Allow the designs to dry before proceeding.
4
Apply embellishments.
- Select a few nails to apply gold glitter polish for a textured effect.
- Adhere small rhinestones to certain designs as accents, using a dotting tool for precision.
5
Finish the look.
- Once all designs and embellishments are in place, apply a layer of top coat to seal and protect the artwork.
- Ensure the top coat is evenly applied to prevent chipping.
Pro Tips
Use quick-drying top coat to speed up the drying process.
Ensure each layer is completely dry before applying the next to prevent smudging.
Practice the designs on a piece of paper first if you're unsure.
Consider using decals if you're not confident with freehand nail art.
