Valentine's Hearts (Tutorial)
February 06, 2013
Here's a really cute heart nail art design, perfect for Valentine's Day :)
What you'll need
- Base coat
- Top coat
- A pale base colour
- 3 other colours for hearts
- Black acrylic paint (or polish)
- A dotting tool
- A thin detail brush
Start by applying a base coat:
Then paint all of your nail with you chosen base colour:
Using a dotting tool and your 3 other colours, (you can you a nail art brush, but I found it easier with a dotting tool), create small hearts randomly place across all of your nails:
Then using black acrylic paint (or black polish), create a dashed outline around each of the hearts:
Finish with a top coat:
P.S. If you're not too good at painting small detail using your non-writing hand (like me), you can leave your other hand just the base colour, that's what I did.
Tada!
The products I used:

Purple - Berry Icecream by Barry M
Pink - Bright Pink by Barry M
Yellow - Lemon Icecream by Barry M
