Ultimate Halloween Nails Guide

Choosing a Halloween costume is a big deal, but finding proper nail art for your All Hallow’s Eve attire is an even more challenging process. You have at least a couple of weeks ahead to practice these spooky Halloween nails or even turn October into Halloween nail art month. This detailed guide features 50 Halloween costumes and 50 matching nail art ideas.

Angel Halloween Nails Art

Angel of Darkness Costume // Embellished Tips Tutorial

When it comes to the angel costume, you can go either for a simple white polish or go with the embellished trend. Our idea is to go with the darker shade of polish and decorate it with lighter crystals.

Camouflage Army Nails

Pin Up Army Girl Costume // Camouflage Nail Art Tutorial

Camouflage nails take time to paint, but the effort is so worth it! Follow the easy steps in the tutorial above to achieve an effortless camo-nails look that will perfectly match your army girl Halloween costume.

Batgirl

DC Comics Batgirl Costume // Batgirl Nail Stripes

Black and yellow are the main colors to use for your Batgirl nail art design. If you have these shades in your collection, you can attempt recreating this Batgirl nail art tutorial or just go with ready-to-use nail stripes (linked above).

Bee

Sweet As Honey Costume // Bee Nail Art Tutorial

I have a special place in my heart of the Honey Bee costumer as it’s the one we wore with my sweet Yorkie Lilu. Check out our photo in this post about Halloween makeup.

Betty Boop

Betty Boop Costume // Betty Boop Nail Art Tutorial

This pin-up nail art is so adorable that I would wear it even without such an occasion like Halloween. What’s even more exciting is that it combines two of my favorite polish colors – white and red.
