Black 'n' Orange French Mani

Can’t wait to pull on your costume? With this fab Halloween French mani, you don’t need to! Pick your style—classic or reverse—and get to work, girl!

 

What You’ll Need:

 

Clear Basecoat

Orange nail polish

Black (or purple) nail art pen

Clear Topcoat

 

What You’ll Do:

 

1. Paint your nails with a thin layer of basecoat. Allow them to dry.

 

2. Paint two coats of orange nail polish and let your smashing pumpkins dry completely.

 

3. Using the black nail art pen (I like Sally Hansen’s), carefully draw your French manicure tips. For a snazzy update to the classic (Halloween) French mani, color in your nails’ half moons rather than your tips.

 

4. Paint over everything with a clear topcoat and allow to dry completely.

 

Tip: Got the polish but not the pen? No prob. Grab a bottle of black or purple polish and get to work. Use a toothpick to paint the French tips or a brush to do your moons.

MOD MOD!! How much is a nail art pen?

 

 

Hey chica! I would imagine that one would be under $5? Maybe, a little bit more, but definately under $10.

MOD!!!! one of my friends started texting me like everyday practically since august. he would often say we should hang out, tell the stuff he likes about me, etc. Just last week we decided we were going to go to the movies sometime, so he asked when i wanted to go. we both stated we couldnt do it that weekend, so maybe the next. now whenever i text him he doesnt answer. what happened?! i thought it sounded like he liked me but now i dont know!!! WHAT HAPPENED?!?! i dont want to seem desperate or too clingy so i dont want to text him again.. Frown Frown PLEASE HELP

 

 

Hey girly girl! I would talk to him in person, and see if you're still on for the movies. In person is so much better than through text because you can see his body language, and how he acts, which is a huge indicator of how he feels.

MOD MOD MOD .... ok i decided to be a ballerina for halloween cause i do ballet and i have all the "gear" for it .... the thing is that I live in Canada and the nights r really chilly ... how do I dress for the weather but people still know that im a ballerina ???

 

 

Hey girly! A ballerina sounds cute! Do you have a tu-tu that you could wear? If so... there's no way people wouldn't know what you are. I would just wear a comfy cardigan or jacket, tights and gloves Smile
