12. Jack-o-Lantern Face Nails

Glossy pumpkin orange almond nails with tiny black jack-o-lantern faces on accent nails

It would not be Halloween without a jack-o-lantern, and these nails bring the pumpkin patch to your fingertips. Glossy pumpkin-orange nails look festive on their own, but the tiny black jack-o-lantern faces on the accent nails are what make people smile.

Drawing the faces is easy — triangles for eyes, a jagged little grin — and every face can have its own personality. Goofy, spooky, or sweet: your pumpkins, your rules.

What You’ll Need

  • Pumpkin-orange polish
  • Black nail art pen
  • Base and top coat

How to Make

  1. Apply two coats of pumpkin-orange polish to all nails.
  2. On 2-3 accent nails, draw jack-o-lantern faces: triangle eyes, a triangle nose, and a jagged smiling mouth.
  3. Let dry and seal with a glossy top coat.
