You may be too old to trick-or-treat but that doesn't mean you can't score a handful of sweets. Halloween's most famous dessert can be recreated by painting on just three horizontal stripes.
Dressing up as a cat, a werewolf, or even Kylie Jenner? Here's a great way to fake pointy talons -- without actually cutting your nails. Just be sure to select a nude shade that's close to your skin tone for the most realistic effect.
Lazy girls, this one is for you. This fun mummy design just takes a layer of squiggly lines and two eyes. If you don't want to draw the peepers, nab some Googly eyes for a 3D alternative.
What would Halloween be without a few grinning jack-o'-lanterns? And this simple mani only requires one statement nail -- which will take you way less time to pull off than carving a cute design into an actual pumpkin.
For those of you really into gore, how about faking the worst manicure ever. These zombie fingertips just require a bit of faux blood drips (any vampy nail polish hue should do) and a bit of messy dabbing.
There's no better time than Halloween to embrace the nail art trend. Unlike most holidays where you have to play it safe (you're not going to show up to Easter Mass with a 3D bunny on your thumb), Halloween is made for going all out. After all, the entire purpose of the holiday is to completely transform yourself -- right down to the spookiest Halloween nail designs.
Counting down the days until we get to play dress up, we've thought about every detail of our costume, and scoured Pinterest for killer Halloween nail designs (see what I did there?) we can wear all month. We even rounded up the best Halloween nail art we've seen this year. The best part? They're all easy nail designs you can pull off on your own. While manicure money is always well spent, we know you're saving your moola for that half-priced candy the day after Halloween.
