Jack Holo Lanterns- Halloween Nail Design

Hello everyone! Happy Halloween! This year Halloween for many people/ kids will be very different, but I feel like even before everything that has happened this year  Halloween just has not been the same. I remember when I was a kid and would go out trick or treating that I would get so much candy and now not really any kids go out anymore (even in past years.) So this year we will  keep things simple, we will be creating holographic pumpkin's or Jack O Lanterns on our nails, with a few of the polishes from the Holo Taco line and some other polsihes as well.

Full Pumpkin on the index, middle and pinky nails:
 
On the index, middle and pinky finger nail we will create a circle/ full pumpkin on the tips of our nails. 
 
First take a thin detail brush with an orange holo polish and make a circle near the tip of the nail and fill that in, then let that dry. 
 
Once that is dry take a detail brush with black paint on it and make two triangles for the eyes and then with your stripper brush make a thin curve for the smile.
 
Lastly make a thick green line or a small square on top of your pumpkin for the steam.

Pumpkin face on the thumb and ring finger nail:
  
For an even simpler option on the thumb and ring finger nail we will just make the Jack O Lanterns face.   
 
Take a thin detail brush with black paint on it and make two triangles kind of near the tip of your nails for the eyes, then make a small triangle under the two eyes for the nose. Then take a thin stripper brush with black paint on it and make a curved line for the smile, then make two flat line above the curve and leave an empty space in between that for the pumpkin's tooth, also don't forget to fill in each shape with black paint as well.

Once you have your Halloween nails the way you like apply a top coat to seal in your design and to help your nails to last through all the candy and scary movies that you will be watching this Halloween, or like me just help your nails to last though all the candy eating.
 
Hope all of you enjoyed this holographic pumpkin nail design!
 
Happy Halloween!
 
See you next time for more nail fun!
