Pumpkin Parade - Halloween Challenge #4: Jack-O-Lanterns

Day 4 of the 'This is Halloween' nail art challenge! The theme today is Jack-O-Lanterns!

Here's how the final product looks like:

[Nail art: Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen Black/Noir
Revlon Orange Fizz over Kleancolor Metallic Mango]
True to the theme, I hope! Now let's take it from the top!

[Kleancolor Metallic Mango]
I started with two coats of Kleancolor Metallic Mango. It's a gorgeous burnished bright bronze colour, wavering between chrome and foil.


[Top coat: Revlon Orange Fizz
Base coat: Kleancolor Metallic Mango]
Then I added one coat of Revlon Orange Fizz, which is an orange jelly with orange flakes. It didn't change the colour of Metallic Mango, but the flakes added some texture - which is what I wanted for a pumpkin-y look!

Then with Sally Hansen's Nail Art Pen in Black/Noir, I drew on the pumpkin faces. A coat of glossy quick dry over the lot gave it a shiny look. You can see a little of Orange Fizz's flakes here.

I wanted to try to give each nail a slightly different face, but the middle and ring finger look pretty similar in the end.

Pretty straightforward and simple to do. Do they look like Jack-O-Lanterns or just scary, grinning faces on my nails? :O
