Creepy Halloween Manicures

This Spiderweb Nail Tutorial is Frighteningly Fun

— October 22, 2011 — Fashion
With Halloween just around the corner, there's no better time than now to get creative with your makeup and nail designs, and with the help of this Spiderweb Nail tutorial, getting into the haunting holiday spirit has never been easier!

Owner and head editor of Swatch and Learn, Mary S. goes at it again with another cool and creepy manicure that is both affordable, quick and easy to do. Using Revlon Carbonite lacquer, any black and yellow polishes, China Glaze Liquid Leather, a clear top and base coat, Daniel Stone Art Tool #5 and a piece of tin foil, you too can don this wicked web look. As Mary explains, the trick to adding fine details to any DIY manicure is to use the tin foil like a painter's palette, and an art tool to add the polish to your nails to avoid a mess.

While it may take a couple of tries to perfect the art, at-home manicures are a lot of fun, especially with friends. Don't be afraid to try your own designs, and check out this step-by-step Spiderweb Nail tutorial for all the tips you need.
