This monster mani is perfect for adding a little fun and creepiness to a traditional French manicure. Start by applying a basecoat to your fingernails. Then, apply coloured nail polish to just the tips. You can use a stamper with a french tip plate or vinyls to achieve this look with ease. Once the tips are dry, stamp (or freehand) the image of stitches using black polish where the coloured polish meets the basecoat.

This Dexter inspired design is as simplistic as it is scary, and it’ll go with practically any costume, even a cutesy one. Start by painting the base of your nail a solid white. To make the white really stand out, apply at least two coats. Once dry, apply liquid tape (PROtect from Clear Jelly Stamper) to protect your cuticles and make clean up a breeze. This is where the fun begins. Using a straw, dip one end into a little puddle of blood-red nail polish and hover it about two to three inches above your nail. OK, now blow through the straw. Voila – blood splatter. Repeat until each nail is covered in splattered polish.
