MOONLIT CEMETERY - HALLOWEEN MANI

Hello Ghouls!

Today I have another Halloween mani just to keep them rolling. The look started as something a bit different and then I had re-do the base as it came out too dark and the stamping was almost imperceptible.

What I used:


  • Own mix of polish; base, 2 coats.
  • Winstonia W116; tombstone image.
  • Hehe 036; crows image.
  • MoYou London Mother Nature 14; backdrop tree.
  • Color Club "Harp on it"; backdrop stamping.
  • Mabelle black stamping polish.


I used the double stamping technique, after letting the base dry stamped the backdrop tree and birds with "Harp on it" and then the crows over the fence and the tombstones with black at the front. I liked that the holo on "harp on it" gave it some sort of moonlight effect, so I added the moon on my ring finger just to finish off.

Hope you girls like this.
See next time!

THE CALL OF CTHULHU - HALLOWEEN MANI

Hola Chicas!

Here I am on full swing with my halloween manis and I have lots and lots of ideas so I'm just gonna keep'em rolling.
Today's look is inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's horror story "The call of Cthulhu" (and Metallica's song of the same title), gives me the chills just to remember and imagine it!

What I used:


  • Black polish; base 2 coats.
  • Sinful Colors "Green Ocean"; glitter topper.
  • Bundle Monster BM418.
  • Winstonia W217; middle finger image.
  • MDU White
  • Seche vite top coat
After letting the black base dry applied 2 dabbed coats of Green ocean and I took a pic of the base before stamping because is just so gorgeous that I couldn't stop looking at it, it was one of those nail porn moments. Once all dried stamped the tentacles image using MDU White, to give it a more realistic look and depth I colored the image using my own mix of purple and green polishes with a small detail brush.



Just look at it, isn't it beautiful?

Hope you girls enjoy.
See you soon!
