Dirty Mummy Nails



Halloween is coming soon and every nail artists are searching for Halloween nails ideas. This cute little mummies are not my original idea. Not knowing who first started it, I can't credit anyone.

Some people use Konad stamp for mummy nails, but I thought it will be too stiff for a cute little mummies. Personally I really like these little guys. They are very cute and a lot of people has been complimenting them. Even my mom likes them! :D





I used OPI Alpine Snow as the white base. Followed by sponging using OPI Strangers Tide and Sinful Colors Nirvana to make it look dirty and muddy. For the black lines I used LA Colors Nail Art in Black. The striper is indeed thick, that's why the lines on the mummy are thick. You can use simple long nail art brush, but it's a hassle.
