Halloween Manis Galore - Zombies & Pumpkins & Skulls, Oh My!

Happy (somewhat belated) Halloween, lovelies! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I have been a bit lax in posting this month, but rest assured I have worn plenty of fun and festive manis. Rather than clogging everyone's feed with multiple last-minute posts (or even worse, waiting until next year to post) I thought I would show them all off in one post - enjoy!

First up, the mani I actually wore today - Lumina Lacquer Mick or Treat, a mix of orange, red, yellow, silver, and gray glitters (including silver Micky Mouse-shaped glitters and moons, and orange and black pumpkins!) over Glittering Elements Countess, a burgundy-leaning dark warm purple holo. Love those pumpkins! This was the absolute perfect Halloween mani.

Lilypad Lacquer Queen of Halloween is a fantastic burgundy holo. Love love love Lilypads, and this was no exception! Perfect holo effect.

LynBDesigns Fluffy Pumpkin is a pumpkin orange holo. So sparkly! This is the perfect Halloween holo.

Shleee Polish The Great Pumpkin is a mix of orange green, and black glitters and orange pumpkin glitters. I layered it over LynBDesigns Fluffy Pumpkin and Lilypad Lacquer Global Greenie, an emerald green holo. Super cute mani, love how all the colors go together!

Glam Polish Corpse Bride is a white crelly base full of white purple, and black glitters and pink skull-shaped glitters. I mattefied it with OPI Matte Topcoat. Also such a cute mani - wore this one with my favorite Jack Skellington shirt; thought it was a perfect match :)

Enchanted Polish To Die For is a mix of gray-ish purple glitters in a holo-shimmery base. I layered it over Lilypad Lacquer Black Pearl, a gray-ish lavender holo with a pink sparkle. These two go flawlessly together! If you happen to have both of these babies, you MUST pair them together - I tried a ton of combos, and this was my fave by far.

LynBDesigns This is Halloween is a coppery glitter with orange and pink/purple glitters. Over it I layered Liquid Lacquer Witchy Resting Face Syndrome, a clear base with orange, purple, yellow, and pink glitters. Must admit, I got this polish for the name alone (I may be accused of having a similar syndrome myself from time to time, lol) but I ended up loving it like crazy - and these two were perfect together!

Peita's Polish Monster Mash is a mix of red, black, and purple glitters in a clear silver shimmery base. I started out layering it over China Glaze That's Shore Bright, a neon purple creme, then layered on top China Glaze Are You Jelly?, a neon purple jelly, and finally took Saran wrap to it for a marbled look. The marbling here is super subtle, but I love the effect!

KB Shimmer You Go Ghoul! is a black jelly with purple, orange, and pink glitters. I love how dark this one reads - but the glitters pop against it so perfectly, just the perfect touch of color! Very pretty.

Shleee Polish Marion Crane is a mix of white and pink hexes, purple hearts, and hot reddish-pink skulls. I layered it over Essie For the Twill of It, a grayish purple and green duochrome. I also mattefied the whole thing, mainly because I have always wondered what a matte duochrome would look like - and the verdict is: it looks great! Loved this mani a ton; had a hard time taking it off.

Dollish Polish Walker Bait is an olive green holo. So pretty! This one was super mega holo.

And finally, Candy Lacquer Miss Halloween 2013 is a mix of pink, red, black, and white glitters - mainly hexes, some stars and hearts, and diamonds - in a clear base. I layered it over a Saran wrap marble of two unnameds - baby pink and hot pink. The pumpkins were not a part of Miss Halloween; I stole them from another polish. Such a fun look; loved it! Super loud and bright.

And there you have it! Here I was thinking I hadn't been wearing enough Halloween polish this year - had no idea I had so many manis saved up, unposted! Christmas is coming up soon... here's to hoping I have a slightly more regular posting schedule then ;)

Happy Halloween! And now... Happy November! Which, as far as I am concerned, means Merry Christmas - is it too early to put my tree up? I think not.

Have a fantastic day! ♥
