Halloween is the right occasion to try darker nail shades with special effects and the right styling. There is no reason to restrict your Halloween manicure to just this spooky holiday. With some designs you can go beyond October and make the nail art your favourite fall piece. For Indian women who follow beauty trends, the trick is to pick the right designs. Let’s quickly take a look at some.


There’s no need to resort to bold manicures this autumn. Shades such as chocolate browns, espresso, and other dark hues can let you express your inner darkness in a subtler manner. You can also try a combination of chocolate brown and black on the nail tips, or use different shades of brown for your manicure. These colours will also look good in combination with beige, rust, olive, cream and burgundy clothing and accessories.

With its deep, almost-black burgundy tone, this colour has hints of cherry and wine that give it a striking appearance when light hits it. Whether you apply it in a simple glossy fashion or add jelly polish to achieve a translucent effect, black cherry looks beautiful on short nails.
He said, “We’re seeing a growing interest in spooky-chic nail art, with designs featuring spiderwebs, tiny ghosts, blood-red accents and black-and-orange French tips. He also suggested something for shorter nail lengths and said, “For shorter nails, minimal prints such as miniature bats, spiderweb corners, stars and polka dots work best, as they look stylish without overwhelming the nail. Aura nails create a dusky effect, producing a softer blend rather than a precise design. For Halloween, a mixture of dark plum, black cherry, and dark mauve can provide an air of mystery and romance to the look. This approach is effective if you prefer artistic nails rather than a simple dark manicure without obvious Halloween symbols. There is also the possibility of testing a fresh technique with burgundy fading into black or deep violet combined with a subtle nude base. To keep on with the Halloween trend, we also approached Akash Hazra, Nail Expert at SINH Salon, to know which nail art trends are in demand. A nude or sheer base helps the designs stand out while keeping the look elegant. To recreate these styles at home, use a fine nail-art brush or a dotting tool, keep the patterns small, and finish with a glossy top coat for a salon-like finish.”
