Beetlejuice Nails

This tutorial shows how to create this Halloween movie design - Beetlejuice on the accent nail and the famous pinstripe pattern :)

1)

For these nails you will need four colours; light purple, green, black and white. I used (l-r) Barry M#308 Berry Ice Cream, Nail Star green, MUA #2, MUA All Nude. 

2)

Start off by painting two thin coats of your white polish on all of your nails.

3)

For the first part of the Beetlejuice nail carefully paint a broad arch stroke halfway down your nail with your green varnish.

4)

Next, for the hair use your green shade to paint upward strokes. Finish them at slightly different heights in order to create that wild hair look. Paint two light purple circles for his eye make up.

5)

Then, using your white varnish carefully add two small white blobs within the purple circles. Then use your black polish to add two small pupil dots inside the white blobs.

6)

To finish off the design use your black varnish to paint these pinstripes on all of your nails, including around the Beetlejuice design. Try to do each line in one stroke to keep them as even as possible, and avoid having excess polish on your brush. 

And this is the finished Beetlejuice nail art design :)

Dracula Nail Art

This tutorial shows how to create a Dracula/vampire nail design for Halloween :)

1)

For this tutorial you will need four colours; black, white, nude and dark red. I used (l-r): MUA #2, MUA All Nude, MUA #18, Barry M #222 Red Wine.

2)

Begin by painting two thin coats of your nude shade on all of your nails

3)

Then, take your black varnish and carefully paint an arch at the bottom of your nail, leaving the side edges slightly pointed.

4)

To create Dracula's hair, then use your black varnish to paint a triangle extending from the arch, it should look like an M/W once you have done this.

5)

Next, use your white polish to carefully paint two circular shaped blobs for the eyes.

6)

Then using your black polish dab two little dots in the centre of the white circles to finish the eyes, then paint a thin line just over half way down the nail.

7)

Using your white varnish again, carefully paint these two triangle shapes extending from the black line to create the fangs. Make sure there isn't any excess polish on your brush to help with accuracy. 

8)

The final step is to use your red shade to dab two blood spots on the tip of each fang. These can be randomly shaped so I find it best to just dab your brush down and go with whatever shape comes out.
Repeat these steps on all of your nails or try one Dracula accent nail and check out my Blood Manicure for your other nails for a cool design :)
