GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE OCTOBER 2025 — Haunted House

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! I hope everyone is having a lovely & safe week so far. It’s a busy week as we prepare for Halloween, but we have one more prompt for Glam Nails Challenge October, & I couldn’t wait to share my design with you — even if I’m posting it a bit late in the day!

The final prompt for October is Haunted House, & I’m super proud of my spooky haunted house design I created.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen InstaDri Top Coat (red bottle) 
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist (purple)
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Sugar Fix
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Beatnik
  • Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Dark Hue-mor
  • Quo by Orly Nail Art Striper in black
  • Wet n Wild Nail Art Stickers Trick Me, Treat Me style
  • LA Colors Crackle Top Coat Black
  • NailStuff.ca Mermaid Tail 7mm Liner Brush

I tried my best to create an atmospheric spooky background for my design, & painted the graveyard/spooky background. Then, I had a Wet n Wild nail art sticker that was a haunted house that I placed on my ring finger — which saved me from having to handpainting it! & the pink moon just seemed like a fun little touch to add as well.

& with that, we are done Glam Nails Challenge October for another year! Crazy to think that we are so close to the end of 2025. It’s been a crazy year, so I’m excited to close out the year with some fun designs.

If you’ve been following along with this challenge thank you! I had so much fun painting my nails this month, & sharing all my Halloween design with you!

Have the lovelies rest of your day!

GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE OCTOBER 2025 — Trick or Treat 👻 🍬

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! Can you believe we are only 9 days away from Halloween? Where the heck has this month gone?! It also means we only have 3 prompts of Glam Nails Challenge October to go before the end of the month. I’ve absolutely enjoyed jumping back into these month challenges, & I’m excited to finish up this month & start planning for my nail art for the rest of the year!

Today’s prompt is Trick or Treat, which is such an ambiguous prompt. But, I did pick up those Wet n Wild Fantasy Makers nail art stickers & there was some fun candy stickers, plus a few that say Trick or Treat. So I instantly knew that they would be perfect for this particular prompt, & I couldn’t wait to use them again!

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen InstaDri Top Coat (red bottle) 
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist (purple)
  • Colour Club Purple Haze layered over OPI Lincoln Park After Dark
  • Wet n Wild Fantasy Makers Nail Art Stickers Trick Me, Treat Me style

How fun are these stickers? I know I said it in my previous post featuring them (my birthday nails), but I just love these stickers. I will definitely say though — you want to apply these stickers after your base is fully dry. I had a much better application this time with a manicure that was done the night previously, as opposed to a base that was still tacky & wet. They sit much flatter on the nail, & I think look much smoother as well.

What do you think about my fun Trick or Treat design for this prompt of Glam Nails Challenge October? Do you love these cute Halloween nail art stickers? I purchased my sheet at Shoppers Drug Mart for $7.99 CAD, but I have also seen them available at Walmart in previous years. I kind of wish I had also purchased the other style of stickers (with cute little Ghost Face stickers) but when I went back to find them, they were already sold out at my local store.

Happy Wednesday loves!

GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE OCTOBER 2025 — Black Cat 🐈‍⬛ (aka My Birthday Nails 💅)

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! I know, this post is coming to you much later in the day than usual, but that is because it’s my birthday today! & I’ve been out & about (has to get that free Starbucks birthday drink ✨!)

But I’m so excited to share the next prompt for Glam Nails Challenge October — because it’s one of my favourite things! Black Cat. 🐈‍⬛ I’ve also been holding onto some nail art stickers from Wet N Wild, which were perfect for this prompt!

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen InstaDri Top Coat (red bottle) 
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist (purple)
  • Essie Nail Art Studio Jelly Blush *pr
  • Essie Swoon in the Lagoon
  • Essie Birthday Girl!
  • Wet n Wild Halloween Nail Art Stickers

Cute little black kitties, perfect for this prompt — & my birthday manicure. I went with a sponge-y pink base, compliments with Essie Birthday Girl, since it was the perfect day for it!

Maybe this is not the spookiest, scariest black cat design — but it is the perfect one for me to celebrate my October birthday with! I love the pink, I love the stickers (& the other little accent stickers I paired with them.)

What do you think of this black cat design? Do you like the colours I chose to compliment my stickers? Does it scream black cat to you? Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments below!

Spring Speckled Egg Skittle Nails

It’s the time of year again lovelies, where I recreate one of my favourite Spring/Easter designs: mini egg/speckled egg skittle nails. I’ve been doing some version of this manicure since the early days of my blog, & it never gets old to me. There is something about a speckled egg design that just screams Easter & Spring. Plus it’s so easy to do!

Today’s look was especially on the easy side, as I chose a glitter top coat for my specks.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Essie Hard To Resist Glow & Shine 
  • Top Coat: Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat
  • Matte Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Matte Top Coat
  • Sally Hansen MG Sun-Shower
  • Sally Hansen MG Sweet Pea
  • Sally Hansen MG Sugar Fix
  • Sally Hansen MG Lavendoor
  • Sally Hansen MG Orchid-ing Aside
  • ACO by Ardene Meteorite
  • Wet N Wild 2% Milk

When I saw this look was super simple, I mean it was super simple. I painted each finger a different colour, applied the glitter top coat, applied Wet N Wild 2% Milk for that faded look, then finished it off with my Seche Vite (because there was a lot of layers of polish) & then added my matte top coat after about 15 minutes. Everything did take a while to dry, but it was totally worth it! I just love a good speckled nail design.

What do you think about this speckled egg design? Do you like a look like this for Easter & Spring? Are you already feeling the Spring temps where you are? It’s just starting to warm up around us, so I’m excited. I’ll be wearing my Spring dresses in no time!

Purple Glazed Half Moons

Hello lovelies & happy Friday! The weekend is almost upon us.

I’m sure if you’re any part of the nail art community, you’ve heard that glazed donut nails are all the rage right now. Initially sparked by Hailey Beiber, everyone has been doing their version of the glazed donut manicure on Instagram. So I thought: why not take a stab at my own version, inspired by the trend. I also recently picked up a pretty sheer purple by Essence cosmetics which I thought would give me a similar effect.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Essie Hard To Resist Glow & Shine 
  • Top Coat: Essie Gel Setter
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Central Pink
  • Essence Cosmetics Violet Voltage
  • Essence Cosmetics Oh My Glitter!
  • Wet n Wild 2% Milk
  • Paper Hole Renforcements
  • Teeny dotting tool (NailStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio)

Naturally, & unsurprisingly, I’m very obsessed with how these nails turned out. I love the sheerness of Essence Violet Voltage really gives that glazed donut effect. & even though it’s not exactly like the glazed donut nails of my fellow Instagramers, I like this nail art take on the look — especially with the negative space moon touch.

It’s the same vibe, but with my own personal touch to it!

Have you heard about the glazed donut trend — have you tried it out yourself yet? Stay tuned, because I recently received a fun PR package from Sally Hansen, which included another way to achieve the glazed donut trend!

Have a fabulous day lovelies!
