The Nail Files: 15 Minute Halloween Manicure

Hallow’s Eve. Festival of The Dead. Devils Day. Whatever you want to call it let it be known I’m not here for that! Nor to debate about the historical origins of the day some celebrate known as Halloween. I am overly excited to share a super quick, 15 minute Halloween inspired manicure featuring Sephora Nail Bling! I choose the gold leopard print that has a 3-D like, textured effect with mini rhinestones. Each set contains 18 stickers in 9 sizes and the appliqués are simple to apply and water resistant.

Here’s what you’ll need: a nail file, cuticle clippers (or scissors), alcohol, cotton round, and your favorite base coat and top coat.

15 Minute Manicure Step By Step:

Let me preface this by saying the directions on the packaging fail to mention applying a base coat first but online it suggests using one. I should have known better but I skipped that step. I started with clean nails and prepped them with a cotton round dipped in alcohol. Next, I measured the appliques to each nail before applying. Once I picked the correct size, I pressed firmly to each nail making sure there were no bubbles. Finally I used cuticle clippers to cut off the excess and cleaned up each nail by filing with the nail file. For extra shine add your favorite top coat. I told you it was super easy and quick! Overall this Halloween inspired manicure took all of 15 minutes!

The Nail Bling appliqués have received mixed reviews online. I’m on day 1 and I am pleased. For $5 and 15 minutes if they don’t last longer than a day I won’t even be mad. If you want to try out some Nail Bling for yourself it’s the perfect time since they are currently on sale! Shop my Nail Bling picks below. Thank me later!

    How long will it stay on? Are they easy to remove?

    So I’ll need to do an update post. They lasted for about 4 days before the ends started peeling. They were easy to remove. I just kinda peeled them off and removed the sticky part with nail polish remover. I’ll definitely be using these more often!
