Halloween‘s here! Well, almost. But with days to go, it means we need to start prepping our Halloween looks. While Singapore doesn’t really have a culture of dressing up in spooky outfits and playful costumes, it doesn’t mean we can’t participate in the festivities by jazzing up our nails. Here are 15 Halloween-themed manicure ideas that you can recreate at home or at the nail salon.
