Halloween Inspired Crackle Nails

Hey there! How excited are you for Halloween?!

Well I actually am so excited that I came up with a very simpleHalloween inspired crackle nail art design for you guys!


This is a super easy, super quick nails design that can be done with almost any nail polish. 

Supplies: 
-clear coat nail polish (any will work) 
-Orange nail polish (the shade of orange is up to you) 
-Black crackle nail polish (any brand will do)




I personally like to apply a clear coat because it serves as the perfect base coat and protects the nail from being stained from the coloured nail polishes.


The shade of orange is really just your preference. I just chose a nice, light but bright orange because I wanted to make sure it would show through the dark, black, crackle coat.


I think that the black nail polish really gives my nails the dark and scary, Halloween feel. To finish the look off, I always like to put I top coat of clear nail polish because I find the nail art last longer and it's also shiny.

The shades of nail polishes I used were but you are definitely not limited to:
Clear: Claire's cosmetics nail polish clear
Orange: Nail Lac-Quer Aldo 22436 Juicy Gossip
Black: Sally Hansen Crackle overcoat 


Also, if any of you were wondering the app I used to edit this photo tutorial was InstaFrame. I highly reccomend it to any of you who need a super good and free photo editor. 

Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed my first ever photo nail tutorial!
 If you do this tutorial, I would love to see a picture! 

Happy Halloween!

P.S. Here are four random fun facts about this tutorial:

1. I stared writing this when my IPad was at 16% charged and now it is at 8%
2. Looking at the pictures now made me realized how crooked my fingers really are Haha
3. I used grid paper from my pre cal assignment so I wouldn't get nail polish on my desk
4. I used my sweatpants as a background for my hand in one of the photos because I thought they looked "Halloweeny"
