Spectacular Sugar Skulls

Happy Halloween, everyone!

I look forward to Halloween every year because it's a good excuse for my inner child to come out and play! I love dressing up and I love the time of year and I just love everything about Halloween! I wanted to try some sugar skull nails since I haven't yet, so keep reading to see how I did!

I started by painting all of my nails with two coats of Maybelline Audacious Asphalt, one of my favorite grey polishes (this is actually my second bottle). Next I painted/dabbed one coat of China Glaze Ghostess With the Mostess on my thumb and pinky finger, and did a dabbed gradient with the same polish on my index and ring fingers. On my middle finger, I painted a sugar skull using Wet n Wild Black Creme, China Glaze Grape Pop, Sinful Colors Olympia, and a franken polish I created called Sunrise. I also used a dotting tool to create some half moon flowers on my index and ring fingers with these same color. I'm pretty amazed and thrilled that I have polishes in my collection that nearly perfectly match the glitters in Ghostess With the Mostess!

I'm not 100% happy with my sugar skull, but I guess that means I'll just practice! If you wanna see what I'm dressed up as this year, I'll probably post a couple pics on my Instagram before today is over. My boyfriend and I are dressing as Dipper and Mabel from Gravity Falls, and I made my sweater design myself! Anyway, I hope you all have a fantastic Halloween, whether you celebrate it or not! Thanks for stopping by!
