Easy Valentine's Day Nail Art

With Valentine's Day not too far away, here's a cute and easy Valentine's Day nail art design!



These are what I used to create my design (Left to Right):
-Sinful Colors: Pink Forever
-Sally Hansen: White On
-Orly: Red Flare
-NYC: Wall Street
-Sally Hansen: Double Duty-Strengthening Base and Top Coat
-standard toothpick





Start off with a base coat ( Double Duty) on all of your natural nails to protect them. Next do 2 coats of Orly Red Flare on your thumb and ring nails, 2 coats of NYC Wall Street on your index and finally, 2 coats of Sinful Colors Pink Forever on your middle finger. 

Here is where you use the mighty toothpick. To draw the hearts (thumb, ring finger, index finger) dip your toothpick into nail polish. I personally like to put a  blob of nail polish on a piece of scratch paper and dip my toothpick in that. Using your toothpick, do a "V" shape on your nail, it's the most easiest way to draw a heart. The dots were also made using a toothpick. Depending on how big or small you want your dots to come out, get a lot or a little nail polish on the toothpick. Finally, finish off with a clear top coat on all of your nails to seal in your design!

I hope you enjoyed this cute and easy Valentine's Day nail art!
