Ghost Nail Art


This is a quick and simple but cute Halloween nail tutorial showing how to create this ghost design.

1)

For this design you will need four varnishes; clear sparkly, black, white and medium blue.
I used (l-r) Barry M #264 Pink Iridescent, MUA #2, MUA All Nude, Rimmel #198 Azure.

2)

First paint two thin coats of your blue shade on all of your nails.

3)

Next, paint a coat of your sparkly nail varnish on all of your nails - this creates a nice night-sky design. 

4)

To create the ghost design, use your white polish and carefully paint these arches from the top to about half way down your nail.

5)

Lastly, use your black polish to add two dots at the top of the arch for eyes, then one below these two for the ghosts mouth. 

And this is the finished Halloween ghost night-sky design :)

Diamante Daisy Nails


This is a pretty quick tutorial on how to create this diamante daisy design, using nail gems and a nice blue background :) 

1)

For this design all you need is a light blue polish, I used Barry M #306 Blueberry Ice Cream, and some yellow and silver/clear nail gems. I got my set of gems on ebay :) 

2)



Start by painting two thin coats of your light blue shade onto all of your nails.

3)

Before your polish dries, add one yellow diamante to the top corner of your accent nail; you can use tweezers if you find it tricky.

4)

Next add five silver/clear gems around the yellow gem to create the daisy petals. If you find your polish has dried in this time then you can either add small amounts of blue polish to the areas the gems will be stuck to, or use a clear top coat polish as a glue. 

5)

Repeat this pattern on the top corner of your thumbnail to finish the design, again using your blue polish or a top coat polish as a glue where your nail is too dry for the gems to stick to.

And this is the finished diamante daisy nail art :)
