Killer Clown

Okay, I finally started on my halloween themed nail art! I usually tend to like a not-too-scary borderline cute halloween nails. But this year thought I'll step out of my comfort zone and actually try something scary. Nothing too gory like ripped nails or bleeding cuticles, lol. I am actually painting my fear onto my nails. Clowns, anything in costumes really, just make me feel uneasy, I just don't why or when that started. That doesn't stop me from wanting to go to Fright Night every year though.

So here it is.. My Killer Clown!

My base for this mani is Butter London Cotton Buds, for that creepy super white clown face. All the clown details were painted with a nail art brush. Colours used are: KBShimmer Eclipse, OPI Vodka & Caviar, KBShimmer Stonewashed and How You Dune? for the eyes details, three shades of orange from OPI for the hair: Juice Bar Hopping, Call me Gwen-ever, Where Did Suzi Man-go?
I dotted my pinkie and thumb with two of the orange, mimicking a clown suit. For the last touch of creepiness, I splattered the red polish all over the nails. There's a big blob of red on the thumb, but I think I like the randomness. Besides, do you think a killer clown would care about a big blob of blood on him? I don't think so!



I'm also entering this to Nail Polish Canada Halloween Nail Art Challenge. SO, vote for me if you like it :) Or enter your gruesome manicure! You can do either of them in this link.

  1. That's so good. And frickin' frightening...and I'm not even scared of clowns. But between these and the clown on American Horror Story I just might start having a new fear!
