6. Mummy Wrap Manicure

Wrap it up like a mummy. Diagonal ivory lines crisscross over a matte nude base like ancient bandages, and two accent nails feature tiny peeking eyes that seem to stare out from the wraps. It is spooky, clever, and totally unique.
The matte finish is what sells this look — glossy would kill the bandage effect.
What You’ll Need
- Matte nude polish
- Ivory or off-white polish with a thin brush
- Black detail polish or pen
- Matte top coat
How to Make
- Apply two coats of matte nude; let dry.
- Paint random diagonal ivory stripes across each nail to mimic wraps.
- On two nails, dot two small black eyes in the gaps between wraps.
- Let everything dry completely.
- Seal with a matte top coat.
