Valentines Day Nail

Yep I know I'm a day late but lucky me I was in Canada for work :). I'm apparently starting a trend of spending holidays in Canada. Anyway I spent a long time trying different looks but finally settled on a cute heart theme. I hope everyone felt really loved and cherished yesterday. And if you are single and didn't get "something" know that you are loved regardless of the physical manifestation of a present.;)


Clear Base: Sally Hansen Maximum Growth.

'Underwear' Color: Ulta Nail Lacquer in Goddess. This color is very opaque for the first two layers but after that it turns into this tangerine pink shimmer. Surprisingly great color.

Hearts: All nails but my middle finger Zoya in Anaka and Orly in Rage. Middle Finger Sinful in Soul Mate, Zoya in Anaka and Sonia Kashuk in Oh La La.


Sparkles: Essie in A Cut Above. I noticed that the more layers I put on the deeper the pink color turned the one downside is it's a pain to get off.

Top Coat: Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat.

Honestly I didn't really like this look. While yes it's cute it didn't turn out exactly like I was picturing. I am new at the design side of nail art so I will just have to continue practicing. Which honestly is what I would recommend for nail geeks, just keep practicing and your hands will steady the more you paint your nails.
