I was browsing Pinterest the other day (I am about as addicted to Pinterest as I am to nail polish!) and I stumbled across a manicure of faux claws. After some clicking I found the original picture on another blog. Click here to see the original post. As soon as I saw this I knew I had to try to recreate this look. I think it is so cool looking and it makes you do a double take because your nails really do look like cat claws!
The great thing about this mani is that you can get the claw look with out having to cut and file the shape of your nails. This is safer (c'mon those pointy nails can be dangerous!) but it's easily removed after Halloween. And, if you really like this mani it's sleek enough to be able to wear to work or any other day of the year.
I used OPI Don't Pretzel My Buttons for the beige and Wet N Wild Black Creme for the claws
This would work a lot better on longer nails, unfortunately I had just cut and filed my nails when I found this manicure on Pinterest :(
So will you be wearing a costume you could rock these nails with this Halloween?
I'm glad you liked my claws :) But your version looks way better than mine!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I really love your original though:) Your longer nails give a much more realistic claw effect!
