If you’re tired of the traditional orange Halloween nails with ghosts on them and are looking for something minimal but just as spooky, the TikTok girlies have it figured out for you. Vampire nails are the chicest new nail trend juust in time for Halloween.
If you’re thinking of long stiletto nails with tiny little vampires pasted on them, then you’re absolutely wrong (thank God). The nail trend focuses on the obvious black and red colour scheme that you would resonate with vampires.

What exactly is the vampire nails trend?
As mentioned, this nail trend focuses on the colour scheme rather than the design aka nail art. The TikTok girlies have been blessing us with some really nice tutorials for this trend wherein they mix a cherry red shade with black in different styles such as an ombre, aura, and more.

Considering the beauty world’s obsession with food rn, some people are also calling this the cherry mocha shade which clearly shows that apart from being the chicest Halloween trend, this nail trend is also perfect for the autumn in general!

How to get the perfect vampire nails
The most popular way of wearing this trend is the aura style. Think ombre but spherical with the colours getting darker as we move away from the centre. This style is typically achieved by adding all your colours to a sponge and then dabbing the sponge on your nails. However, we can also see some TikTok girlies using eyeshadow palettes to achieve the ultimate aura vampire nails.
However, if you don’t want to risk trying a new style, a traditional ombre works just as well to achieve the perfect vampire nails look.
