Manicure ideas for Halloween
Flashy manicure for Halloween? It’s worth reading on even if you are not familiar with horror films because we’ll give you a bunch of ideas for doing your client’s nails inspired by scare stories. Who knows? By the end of this article, you might want to see a few of those movies, too.
BEETLEJUICE
Let’s start with a real classic: Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice which was originally seen on screen but was later adapted on stage, too. Beetlejuice’s distinct black and white striped suit isn’t only a great choice for a Halloween party, but this color combination will look perfect on fingernails too. The variations you can do with it are endless, but what’s certain is that you’ll need some premium quality white and black gel polish for the perfect result. If you want to add a little twist to it, use our neon green 2-in-1 gels too for decoration to summon Beetlejuice’s spirit, and of course, his crazy hairstyle.
SCREAM
Scream is typically the kind of horror movie that even those who have seen are not huge fans of serial killer films. The mask the killer wears in Scream has become so iconic that there is no Halloween party without a ghost face. If you are also inspired by this cultic ghost mask, we recommend you get our white gel polish to get closer to executing your ideas. Though you’ll need a little creativity but painting a ghost face isn’t hard at all.
SAW
What makes a Halloween manicure Saw-like? Of course, it’s the red gel polish. If one of your clients asks you to make something that recalls the atmosphere of the Saw movies, you might need to think a little. It won’t be easy, because even though it’s one of the most successful horror movies ever, there isn’t a single symbol that makes Saw or a manicure based on it what it is. But one thing is for sure: the movie is all about blood and cut-off body parts so you might get some inspiration based on that.
CORPSE BRIDE
The chance of seeing a Corpse Bride at a Halloween party is as big as meeting a bunch of guys wearing Scream masks, so it might not be a bad idea to get some inspiration from Tim Burton’s classic animation. Use our gray gel polish to make your client’s fingernails look real spooky or add some spider and spiderweb motifs for decoration.
Halloween manicures are all about choosing the right color and picking the right decoration to make your client’s nails shockingly spectacular. If you want to play safe, get some of our Glow Top gel which glows in the dark.
