Halloween Nail Art Stickers 🕸️👻

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday!

It is absolutely freezing today, which is crazy because I feel like this time last year it wasn’t nearly as cold. At this rate, we’ll be wearing our winter coats for Trick or Treating on Saturday (just like when I was a kid).

Today though, I have some quick & easy Halloween nails I recently did, using a selection of nail art stickers from Wet N Wild’s Halloween release. We all know my love of nail art stickers for easy manicures, so I was excited when I stumbled across their new release.

The polishes I used for this manicure are:

  • Base Coat: Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Base Coat
  • Top Coat: Sinful Colors Power Paint Top Coat + Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat
  • Essie Worth The Tassel
  • Wet N Wild Fantasy Makers Boo-Niverse Nail Art Stickers
  • Dollarama Spiderweb stickers

I’m always on the hunt for Halloween nail art stickers to add to my collection, so when I saw the Wet N Wild Fantasy Makers stickers at my local Lawtons, I had to get them. Shoppers had the Alien ones, which didn’t feel as Halloween-y to me, so I needed the spooky ghost stickers!

I started with a purple base, because I really wanted my stickers visible on the nail. Then I picked one (or two) sticker for each nail. I decided to add some spiderwebs from my Dollarama collection, because I felt like it matched the vibe.

Over all, I liked these stickers — they held up well against a very busy cafe shift (minus a few coffee grounds under my ghosty). I do find you can kind of see the outline of the stickers, but I feel like an extra coat of thick top coat would help with that.

What do you think of this look? Like I said, I love nail art stickers because they make doing my nails quick & easy when I don’t have a lot of time for hand painting, or it creates designs I might not be able to freehand on my own.

Happy Wednesday!

GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE OCTOBER 2025 — Ghost 👻

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday! It’s hope your week has been as calm & peaceful as can be.

Today is our third prompt for Glam Nails Challenge October, which is ghost! I do love a good ghost design especially this time of year, so I was excited to give this a go. I wanted to create a ghost look slightly different from ones I’ve done in the past, & I think I managed to create a spooky & fun look. & I’m so in love with how they turned out.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen InstaDri Top Coat (red bottle) 
  • Base Coat: Essie Hard to Resist (purple)
  • China Glaze Skyscraper
  • Essence Pastel Ombre Top Coat
  • OPI Alter Ego
  • Icing Store Black
  • Small Dotting Tool (NailsStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio)

So the trick of creating these translucent ghosties is using a really, really shear white polish (or mixing a more opaque white with a clean polish to thin it out.) I Have this Essence Pastel Ombre Top Coat from years, & years ago, & while I’ve never used it for an ombre design, it works perfectly for nail art like this! I also added a bit of OPI Alter Ego for a bit of extra shimmer/glow.

What do you think about this ghostly design? Do you like the spooky sheer effect of the ghosts. I feel like these ones are definitely more on the spooky side, compared to my ghost designs of years past — which I’m loving! Let’s go for all the spooky vibes this October — I am here for it!

Happy Wednesday

GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE OCTOBER— Ghosts

Hello lovelies & happy Wednesday. It’s a beautifully crisp Fall day here — which is crazy, because yesterday it was almost 30c! I’m much more keen on the Autumn crispness to be fair.

Today I’m excited because we are continuing Glam Nails Challenge October with the next prompt which is ghosts! 👻 I wanted to create a kind of spooky, kind of cute ghosty look, & this is what I came up with.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Colour Grip Primer Base Coat 
  • Top Coat: Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat
  • Ardene TGIF
  • Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Get amid
  • Sally Hansen InstaDri Ghouls Night Out
  • Sally Hansen InstaDri 1 Polish, Ah Ah Ah
  • NailStuff.ca Dotting Tool Trio
  • NailStuff.ca 4mm Micro Detail Brush

Happy little ghost!

I totally didn’t realize I was going a second purple Halloween design in a row, I just really wanted to wear TGIF because of that beautiful blue glow it has! I do just absolutely adore how these ghosts turned out though — better than I could have (& did) picture in my head. Kind of cute, kind of spooky.

Just a fun Halloween look to wear.
