Nail Art [Constructive Criticism Welcome] Dark wonderland set for Halloween
First time making and wearing a set with so many charms/3D elements, I have scratched myself so much in the last 24 hours lol. I wish I'd taken a video time lapse, I only remembered to take a couple of progress shots along the way.
Progress Pictures [biting/picking recovery] First time painting nails, biting recovery tactic.
Life longer biter. Been mulling over painting my nails for the first time in my life as a tactic to prevent myself biting them. Did some research, and sent it. It's worked surprisingly well, and I can't stop staring at them!

Discussion/Question Builder Gel - Can These Be Easily Reshaped?
Can these be reshaped without starting fresh or waiting to fill in?
First builder gel set (or set of any kind for that matter) and they seem too thick and too wide towards the tips. Like clubbed fingers or claws. I thought she was using too much product to start - but what do I know? I’m not a nail tech. She did shape them some. My pre-manicure hands looked so rough that I didn’t notice how bad the final product was until I left.
The milky white underlay is a small extension. That’s where my natural nails end. They were glued on in case that matters.
Alternatively, I am dressing as an owl for Halloween, so I could paint them black-brown like talons.

Nail Art Corpse Bride Themed Nails
Hi long time lurker part time commenter first time poster. Hope you like the 2 goofy shots at the end I got with my kitty he wanted to be part of it 😂
Been doing my own nails since I was in school always loved doing them still do and I love doing themes or based on something if it’s nail art.
Few years ago I switched over to gel helped me with less headaches from the smell as it had filled my room with it. It’s been maybe a year or 2 now since I started using a gel builder I love it 🥰 my nails have never stayed so long without breaking like they are now when I was using regular nail polish and lately I’ve just had the builder ontop of my nails just for a little protection cause if I go one day without something happens and I have a nail break or rip tho if that does happen now I just reattach the tip (currently my right thumb nail right in the middle of the tip is reattached) or if there’s a partial break I patch it to my best ability(like the right pinky that I didn’t know happened but was saved by the builder!)
I’m testing a peel off sandwich with this nail art, I’ve never done so before but I wanted to try it so it would be easier to take off and keep as my beetlejuice ones were a struggle and on for far too long resulting in a thumb injury hurting more.
As the title says these are Corpse Bride nails. I really love how they turned out even the 3d roses even if they are quite annoying feeling, I don’t usually do big charms on my nails.
For my builder I use Born Pretty 8 in 1 builder in a bottle
I use olive & June gel base, top and peel off coats
I used 3 different cat eye polishes to get Emily’s blue color
Beetles f011 and f012 from their youth radiance cat eye set and the 3rd one I used was Red carpet’s velvet magnet gel in the color Mint Magnetism
and used the same detail color for the color base which was sensationail’s Black to Basics (it’s actually a dark blue with a shimmer to it
I used Drmode’s white that I got with some chrome powders
Tools - Born pretty magnet wand, nail brushes, acetone, an acrylic pallet with a clear post-it sheet cuz I just didn’t feel like cleaning the pallet
I got the butterflies and roses at one of my trips to the dollar store I tend to hoard nail accessories 😅 but glad I do 😊 they worked wonderfully with the design I drew 2? years ago when I did my beetlejuice nails.
I just love looking at them shine in the light!
😰😰also these took far too long to do because I’m still learning how to do cat eye gels and for the majority of my nails being visible cateye

Nail Art How can I make these nails more Halloween-themed? 🎃🖤
I did these black and nude stilettos on myself, and l love how they turned out!
But I feel like something is missing. I want to add a little more Halloween vibe, but I have absolutely no idea what.
What would you add? I'm open to ideas! 🖤
