Nightmare Before Christmas Nails

Get Jack Skellington-Inspired Nails with This Spooky Tutorial

Autumn is here and Halloween is around the corner, so get creative and try out these Nightmare Before Christmas nails! A great movie hybrid between the two big upcoming holidays, this widely known movie is a classic.

This nail tutorial is inspired by Jack Skellington -- the friendly, yet haunted protagonist of the movie. The tutorial is quite easy to do and won't take you very long. So go along with the Halloween theme and try this black-and-white design. Every nail save for the ring finger is painted black and once dried, white lines are painted on. This will look like Jack's striped clothes. Jack's stitched up smile will go on the ring finger, turning it into an accent nail.

This adorably spooky nail tutorial will have you in for a naughty treat. You'll have the neighbors distracted while you swipe extra candy when you go trick-or-treating!
