To go along with my nurses outfit for halloween I wanted to have blood splatter nails as I think they will look good. I looked on ebay and the false ones are all really long and as I don't do nails and girly very often they will drive me mad. I then looked at the sticker options and again say look better on long nails (mine are fairly short).
This left me the option of nail varnish. I looked at various tutorials and they all said about using a straw and blowing it - well I tried that option and managed to get it on paper not my nails! So I tried to just tap the brush over my nails without touching them - it worked but its not easy to do on yourself.
However my hubby had a go for me and it's worked out ok. So on Halloween (or the day before) the hubby will become my own nail technichian once I have done the base and white coats. I think I my use 2 different reds so it gives a look of some fresh and some not.
Here is the result of the trial run today:
