VALENTINE'S INSPIRED NAILS


What do you think of my Valentine's Day nails? I know that Valentine's Day was a while ago now but who cares? I think these nails can work for any time of  year. Since doing my Comme Des Garcons nails ages ago I've wanted to do some more cool heart nails but never found the right time until now. I used two coats of baby pink nail varnish (Strawberry by Barry M) and once dry created the hearts using two coats of red (Heart on Fire by Rimmel London). It is pretty easy to create the heart shapes as you don't have to be completely spot on, and my long and curved nails also are a pretty perfect shape for the bottom of a heart. I then used a white nail pen to do the outline of the hearts. That was definitely the most tricky part but the end result really looked better because of it. I contemplated not doing an outline but the red and pink clashed quite a lot so the white really helps to stop that. It also just adds a bit of detail which makes them look nicer. I finished with a clear top coat (Sally Hansen) and job done! XOXO
