While the rest of my posts can wait, I figure I should at least get my Halloween one up before Halloween! so here it is =D I wanted to do something festive, but not too in-your-face, because I have work all day tomorrow! I think this simple design worked very well =)
I used: Color Club - Polish For All // Nina Ultra Pro - Molten Gold // China Glaze - Liquid Leather // Nubar - 2010 // China Glaze - Ghoulish Glow
This is 2 coats of Polish For All, then Molten Gold was used to dull out the orange, as it is very VERY NEON! Molten Gold is a gorgeous sheer pink-orange duochrome. I then used a brush to paint the black diagonal lines, it came from the set I got off eBay. Lastly, I used 2010 over the entire nail and topped off the orange sections with 2 coats of Ghoulish Glow! Ghoulish Glow is a great glow-in-the-dark polish. It is fairly clear and produces a good glow-effect with two coats.
Here is what Polish For All looks like alone. It is even brighter in real life! It came in the Color Club Pride set.
When I first got Nubar 2010, I knew that I'd be using it for Halloween. I'm not a huge fan of the orange-green flakies, I'm still looking for the perfect blue-duochrome flakie, but I think 2010 worked perfectly here!
...and here is what it looks like when it *glows in the dark*!

Woah woah woah... those aren't taped lines!? Wow. You did great for using a brush. Love the concept too, very original!
ReplyDelete@LeonaCarolina Thanks =) I find it's a lot quicker with a brush and not too difficult if you use a flat squared one.
ReplyDeleteThese are great! The Nubar and glow in the dark polish is a nice touch!
ReplyDeleteThey look great! I know this is really late for Halloween but I'm reading through all your old posts and thought I'd share mine anyway: http://www.prettypurplepolish.com/2011/10/halloween-manicure.html
ReplyDelete@PrettyPurplePolish Awesome! You got a really good glow picture!

ReplyDeleteThanks, It took me ages to get the photo though. I had to try hold still for a few seconds so I wouldn't blur the picture. The shutter speed was on really slow.
