Caramel Apple

Another quickie, I have too many Halloween mani's! This is a copy cat of a cute caramel apple manicure from @bruisedupdollie on Instagram, I loved it, it's way better than mine, an awesome inspiration, but I, of course had to do a granny smith apple, because of my green obsession. I used Ruby White Tips This is My Swamp, which I love, but I did have to thin out a little, which is not normal with this brand, I won it in a giveaway awhile back, and I use it ALL the time.

I used 3 coats of Ruby white Tips This is My Swamp, and China Glaze Golden Spurs for the drips, and 2 coats of Digital Nails Ain't Nobody Got Time For That Top Coat

Happy Halloween, I hope everyone had a great night!!!

Julep Blakely Mummy

Quick post today, because I tried to fit as many Halloween mani's in this month as I could, It took me forever to get a good picture of Blakely, and had to use one that was a little blurry so you could see the color shift, and because quite frankly I am a little disappointed that they messed up my first Maven box, and sent me the wrong one, and I'm still waiting for the right one, and the wrong one has been sitting around here for a week waiting for them to email me a return shipping label, with that being said, I LOVE Blakely! So as long as they don't keep messing up my orders, and have good colors I won't cancel my subscription. Blakely is a dark grey, purple, blue shifter, sometimes I see a little magenta, and a little green too. Beautiful, and it applied and stayed on well.

This is 2 coats of Julep Blakely with Mummy stickers from Stick It Vinyl, and 2 coats of Digital Nails Ain't Nobody Got Time For That Top Coat

My Ten Friends Alien Blood

I was super excited to get my special edition My Ten Friends polishes, and my daughter had a living literature parade on Friday, and her class book was Aliens Love Underpants, so it was a perfect excuse to use Alien Blood, and the reason I got rid of the stilettos, I had to help get twenty, 4 and 5 year olds ready, and would have felt terrible if I had scratched anyone! They were wonderful!
Alien Blood is a teal jelly with tiny holo glitter,  Chartreuse squares, and turquoise holo glitter, GORGEOUS! Turquoise/teal polish is another weakness of mine.

I used 1 coat of My Ten Friends Alien Blood over 2 coats of Illamasqua Viridian, China Glaze Def Defying for the alien accent nail, and a splat sticker from Stick It Vinyl, and my normal 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

My Ten Friends FRANKENSTEIN!!!

SQUEEEE!!!! I was SO excited to get my exclusive "Banned Books for the Blind" Frankenstein Polish from My Ten Friends, that I had to put it right on! Over the Summer My Ten Friends let everybody know a friend of hers was doing a Kickstarter program to raise money for audiobooks for people that are visually impaired, a great cause right!?! And I got 2 exclusive polishes Frankenstein, and a War of the Worlds that will be here just in time for Christmas! Frankenstein is a gorgeous chartreuse polish (one of my faves!) with green, gold, black, and I think a few turquoise glitters in it.

I used 3 coats of OPI Simply Smashing, then 1 coat of My Ten Friends Frankenstein, and China Glaze Starboard for the base for my Frankenstein accent nail, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. I got the head stitches from StickItVinyl

Ophelia's Love

Today I have Polished by KPT Ophelia's Love, I LOVE this polish! It's a purplish/taupe to dark purple thermal with magenta glass fleck glitters, I can't stop staring at my fingers!
Here it is cold.....

And warm......

And what it looks like after a few minutes of wear.....

This is 2 coats of Polished by KPT Ophelia's Love with 2 coats of Digital Nails Ain't Nobody Got Time For That Top Coat

Yes, I tried out a different top coat, I didn't have to worry about my glitter eating my top coat, so I decided to try out Ain't Nobody Got Time For That, and boy does it dry fast! My thumb was dry by the time I got to my pinky! And it's super shiny, well worth cheating on my Seche with!

The Devil Wears Polish Fun House

The Devil Wears Polish put out an Aspiring Anarchist Collex, available until November 1st. It's a punk-rock Halloween collection, and I bought the whole set, because I'll wear it all year round. Today I have Fun House, it's named after a Stooges song, and is fabulous, but took forever for me to get a decent picture of,  this is outside in the sunlight. Fun House is a bright purple jelly with white and magenta skull glitters, white micro glitter, and magenta circle glitter. Purple polish is one of my other weaknesses, but I didn't realize it until my husband built a polish shelf for me, I started organizing my polishes by color, and was like my God where did all this purple come from!?! Now I've decided to just embrace it.  Fun House went on smoothly, and dried well, I had to fish a bit for the skulls, but it wasn't that difficult, and they sit surprisingly smooth for shaped glitter a couple coats of top coat was fine. I have to really love a polish to do shaped glitter, and I really love this polish, and shipping was super fast!

I used 1 coat of The Devil Wears Polish Fun House over 3 coats of China Glaze Creative Fantasy, and topped with 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

AHHHH ZOMBIES!!!

Of course I'm super excited about Walking Dead starting back up tonight, so I did a Zombie mani. I didn't do the typical green, shocking I know since it's one of my favorite polish colors, but snail mail has kept me from getting a couple of polishes that I was hoping to use for this manicure, so I watched the long trailer AMC ran on Friday for inspiration, and then went digging through my polishes. I have been wanting to use Chirality Suspiria for awhile now, and when I really started looking at it, I thought it was what I was going for, pink brains, red and black blood, PERFECT!

I used 1 coat of Chirality Suspiria over 3 coats of Sephora by OPI Don't Feed the Hand Models, and 2 coats of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat, and made a little googly eyed zombie on my accent nails.
