Happy Halloween!!!!

Hey Dolls:) So I have 3 Halloween mani's to share this Halloween night!!! These are the mani's I have been rocking this past week:)  Hope you like them a much as I liked rocking them!!!!

A Halloween Silhouette

Background is Chirality Soska:) The Moon is a combo of Zoya in Cam, Thandie, and Pippa, details are basic black and white cremes!

Witches Feet

Zoya Tilda and China Glaze Mix and Mingle are the bases for this mani:) add in some black and a tiny bit of neon orange for the details:) 

Pumpkin Tips 

I used a straight black creme base and added the pumpkins with Zoya Cam and China Glaze None of your Risky Business, with the stems in Zoya Tilda:) 

All of these are freehand art and took a good little while to complete:) but I challenged myself this week and had a lot of fun with it!!! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

HPB Presents HALLOWEEN

So Halloween is upon us again!!!!  This is probably my second favorite holiday to do manis for!!!! Christmas is my first, but Halloween is a close second:) So I did the faces of Halloween this year, what I Love about this idea is that it is soooo versatile! You can really do everything from ghosts to vampires and everything in between!!!! I used Black, White, CG Treble Maker, Zoya Thandie, Zoya Darcy, and Zoya Livingston to create this mani:)

 This mani took a little extra time and a steady hand but it turned out so cute that I can't complain!!!! Now my thumb was a witch... that ended up being a complete disaster:( So what are you rocking on your nails this year for Halloween!!!!

China Glaze Apocalypse of Colour

Only 2 days left until Halloween!!!! Oh how I Love Halloween:) Mostly because of the Candy, but also because of the fabulous nail art that goes along with it!!! (stay tuned because I have some fun Halloween nail art coming tomorrow) Now today I have China Glaze's Apocalypse of Colour for your viewing pleasure:)

*press sample*

Don't Let the Dead Bite is a super light pink/flesh toned jelly packed with red Glitters:) This polish kinda of mimics the blood splattered nail look but definitely not as morbid and much more versatile!!!  

 I Love Your Guts is next:)  This beauty is a medium rose pink with black specks!!! It dries to a lightly textured matte finish, and when you add a topcoat it really shines:)

 But of Corpse is a shimmery medium green with black flecks and has the same texture and finish as I Love Your Guts:) This is one of my favorites of the collection, quintessentially Zombiesque!!!

 Getting to Gnaw You is a deep black Jelly that is packed full of orange micro glitters!!!  This polish screams Halloween!!!!

 Rest in Pieces is my absolute favorite!!! It is a beautiful gold and black glitter topper:) I put this baby over white in a gradient pattern and it is stunning!!!!

 Goulish Glow is a staple in China Glaze's Halloween collection and usually available year round:) It is a Glow in the dark gem that is just a topper:) undetectable on the nail except for in the dark!!!!

I really like this collection, it is different and out of the box, but perfect for the Holiday!!!! All swatches are 3 coats:) This Collection is available now and you can find it at Sally's Beauty Supply or Ulta and as always Online:)

My Halloween Nail Look

Happy Halloween... 1 day late:) Sorry had to take my munchkin trick or treating or I would have posted this last night:) But anyway I hope you all had a fabulous and safe Halloween!!!! So for my Halloween look I used 2 polishes from one of my favorite Indie makers, Missi at Different Dimension:)

 

 The base of this mani is Good Evening Clarice.  This beauty is a pale green with a slight holo shimmer:) and IT GLOWS IN THE DARK!!!!! (sorry no glowing pics but I can't seem to master that shot) I used 2 easy coats and it just stuns!! I then added a dabbing coat of ...with Some Fava Beans and a Nice Chianti. This little gem is a mash up of green, purple and black glitters with a touch of holographic dust. How perfect do these go together!!!

 

So what do you think of my Halloween look!!!  Don't forget to check out some of Missi other pretties HERE!!!! Have a great weekend Lovies!!!!

Halloween Skittles:)

Happy Halloween Week!!!! and I'm baaaackkkk!!! Surgery went really well, I laid on the couch for 5 days straight with some pretty awesome meds:) I have been taking it super easy for the past 2 days and went back to work today (crazy, I know)!!! I was gonna take another week off of blogging and social media; but I have a couple of super cute Halloween mani's to show off and waiting till after Halloween just seemed wrong. So tonight I wanna show off my Halloween Skittle mani!!!

 

So for this Mani I used 7 different colors!!!For thumb nail I used Zoya Darcy as my base and stamped on some fun bats with the Bundle Monster BM-213 plate:) My index finger is China Glaze Def Defying with some fun stiches freehanded on!!! For my middle finger Eyeballs were the way to go, a black base with Zoya Rocky for the blue and some well placed dots:)  My ring finger is a base of Zoya Thandie with a freehanded Jack-o-lantern face!!! and Finally my pinkie is a base of Zoya Livingston with a freehanded black and white mouth with fangs!!!!

Let's go to the Monster's Ball

Happy Saturday Lovies:) I hope you are having a great weekend!!! Today post is gonna be short and sweet, I've got some pumpkin hunting to do:) So I have to say sorry for being so sporadic with my posts lately, I have been in a lot of pain for the past few months:(  I found out this week that the cause of all that pain is my Gallbladder:( But the good news is I am having it removed, Monday!!! I know super fast right... But that makes me a super happy girl!!!! Anyway, on to the Polish:) Todays polishes are courteous of China Glaze's Monster's Ball collection.

 

Up first is Howl You Doin':) a Deep berry crelly packed with purple and magenta glitters and micro shards.  The formula is a little thick and kinda clumpy because it is packed with so much glitter:( This polish is also a super topcoat eater... but is super gorgeous!!! Here is 2 coat with a coat of Gelous and SV:)

 

 

 Next up is Bat My Eyes:) This polish is a Black crelly base that is so packed with bronze and gold glitter it is breathtaking!!! I am usually not a fan of bronze type colors but this polish was so shiny and sparkly on I couldn't keep my eyes off it!!!! Here is 2 coats, 1 coat of Gelous and SV:)

 

 

 And Lastly my favorite is Boo-gie Down:) Now this polish like a lot of B&W Glitters presents the real problem of what color to put it over??? So I decided to do a black and white gradient and put this beauty on top!!! This polish is full of black, white and orange glitters of all sizes and is completely perfect for my first Halloween mani:)

 

 

 

 

These polishes retail for $6-9 and you can find them at Ulta, Sally's Beauty Supply and other retailers:) I hope you have a great rest of your weekend, and hopefully I will be feeling back to my old self in no time:)

Bloody Nails:)

One Day Closer to Halloween:) I have had so much fun experimenting with Halloween mani's this year I almost can't wait till next year already.  I decided to do some bloody nails to keep with the spirit.

 I wanted a bright/jellyish red and I didn't have one:(  but that didn't deter me.  So I mixed Julep Molly, a super bright creme red,  and Essie Skirting the Issue, a dark vampy jelly red and the mix gave me this:)

 I created the drips with my large dotting tool moving from the drip to the tip of my nail, not completely mixing the two colors in order to give more depth to the effect. This is sooo cool to me:)

So what has been your favorite Halloween mani that you have seen so far???? Leave me links cause I wanna see too:)  Trick or Treat:)
