Halloween Nails 6: Dracula

Nothing screams Halloween like Bram Stoker's Count Dracula so it seemed fitting that he'd appear somewhere in my list of Halloween nail art tutorials. See how you can get this cute Dracula manicure in six easy steps.

Rimmel London a nail Tip Whitener
No 7 - 12 Temptress
Striper Brush
Dotting Tools

Now lets get creative!



1. Use a base coat to protect your nails from staining. Paint your nails white, you may need to paint two or three coats before the white will be streak-free.

2. Use your striper brush dipped in black polish to paint a black French tip at the top of your nail. Then draw a small point coming from the centre of the French tip like the top centre picture above.

3. Take your largest dotting tool and dip it in a dark red polish. Place two large dots side-by-side about halfway down your nail.

4. Take your striper brush and dip it in black polish again. This time draw a curved line beneath the eyes. Draw two small triangles coming from the curved line, these will be the fangs.

5. Take a slightly smaller dotting tool and dip it in black polish. Place a smaller black dot inside both dark red dots.

6. Finally, take your smallest dotting tool and dipping it in white polish dot two small circles inside the black dots from step five. Use a topcoat to protect your design.

Congratulations, you've nailed a fang-tastic nail art look in no time!
