Did my nails for halloween. I'm really happy with the result. Also It's the first time I sent a photo of my nails to my mom (It's been a while since I started doing my nails, and I was always scared about showing it to her, as she was raised quite traditional in USSR, and also I still have not come out to her yet). Did that while I was in a call with her. She was really impressed, that she first thought I went to a nail salon. Although I still could hear a little bit by her voice, that she has mixed feelings, but I think that will pass over time. So well, this month is going really great for me, and this made it even better.

Those are freaking awesome 😍. I was thinking of trying to draw a jacko lantern but my drawing skills are very lacking.

    You can do it, I believe in you :3 It requires a lot of time and patience, but it will make you really happy when you finally do it. As with anything handmade, even if it does not look perfect, or just you don't find it perfect (I was always at first looking at any flaw and error and going crazy over it), it's always unique, and it's yours. You made it, and you should be proud

    It basically requires a really thin brush and a lot of patience. When I was starting to do my nails, I was first trying to do some simple designs. Maybe some abstract curved lines or thin outlines. After some time, I started to try some more complex designs. You just have to get used to drawing thin lines, so when you are drawing something it doesn't come out wobbly. And also you should be prepared that it might not end up looking how you wanted it to, but you will learn from mistakes, and do even better with each time. And always you should be proud of yourself for trying, and never you should get angry if something went wrong ❤️

    damn these are really good! my personal favorite is the ghost :)

    you did these yourself‽ how on earth did you manage to make such precise details on both hands? i (being left-handed) struggle to keep polish off the skin when painting my left-hand nails, fine details like this just seem impossible o.O
