MYSTIC MOOD! @latinkay wanted something kinda Halloweeny without being TOO on the nose. So we went with this kinda mystical vibe over a shimmery midnight blue (which of course was so hard to see in the photos). #handpaintednailart #gelnailart #mysticalnails #halloweennails #nightskynails #moonandstars #cndbellini
