Expert Tip

For more defined bones, sketch them out lightly with a white pencil before painting. Practice your splatter technique on paper first to get the right amount of blood.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will this design last?

With proper care and maintenance, this design can last up to 2 weeks.

Can I use nail stickers instead of painting the bones?

Yes, skeleton nail stickers can be a great alternative for those who aren't comfortable with hand painting.

What kind of top coat should I use?

A glossy top coat will add shine, but a matte top coat can create a more textured and spooky effect.

Can I do this design on short nails?

Yes, but the bones may need to be smaller and more simplified.

Is this design difficult to remove?

No, it can be removed with regular nail polish remover and a bit of patience.

Are there any shortcuts for creating the blood splatter effect?

You can purchase pre-made 'blood splatter' nail decals to speed up the process, but the effect won't be as unique as creating it yourself!
