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.
