Valentines nails: i heart you

I have already decided what i would be sporting for my nails this V-day..although im not big on V-day, but it doesn't hurt for my nails to glam up on that day.


But i have to say that this is 1 of the hardest nail design that i did for the time being since it requires a steady hand & i don't really have a steady hand.

I was just playing with my nail art pens & i came up with these. I even showed it to bf & he said that it looked messy but cute in a way. I guess i just overdid it when i loaded it with hearts, but i think the less hearts there are, the better this is.


It's your choice for this...colors & shapes, that is... If you want to know the shade that i used, i used The Face Shop's nail polish in:



So, let's start with the tut:

  • Apply base coat & base color. I forgot to take a pic of my nails while it is just plain, i hope this would do... Again, i just made my ring finger different, but it's your choice.



  • Then paint half of the nails like so....



  • Make sure that the end of your pen doesn't have any dirt or any blockage.



  • Then start making small hearts....



  • The hardest part is to keep a steady hand..



  • It doesn't need to be perfect..just make sure that the shape is distinguishable




  • You can make random heart shapes to your hearts content..



Then apply a plain polish on top, i suggest that you don't use glittered ones since this is already eye catching on it's own. Putting glittered polish will just cover those hearts.

Hope you like this!

Jaa ne~!
