20 Valentine's Day Nail Art Ideas to Love
What pairs best with chocolates, a teddy bear, or a bottle of wine? Valentine’s day nails, of course—how else are you supposed to properly ‘Gram your gifts? We present 20 nail art designs that are perfect to hold your loved one’s presents or properly celebrate your singlehood, festively.
Candy Striper
Nails worthy of the MoMA. The artistic design balances the red and pink with a hint of nail—or “negative”—in between. Use tape to section off your desired untouched areas and divide between paint colors then get your Piet Mondrian on.
Little Hearts
If you’re really swept up in the magic of the moment—love is in the air!—then you’ll love this nail design covered in teensy weensy hearts. Apply a top coat to seal the little hearts in place and to add a bit of shine.
True Love
Wearing your heart on your sleeve was so last Valentine’s Day. Wear your heart on your nail beds with this oversized red heart design.
The Stud
A subtle look that appears much more difficult to do than it actually is. Place a piece of double stick tape on your nail surface and adhere the studs to the tape. Paint them and apply a top coat so they don't smear when you glue them onto the nails.
Pink Power Ranger
If the the people’s Power Ranger, the pink one, was celebrating Valentine’s Day with her significant other, we’d imagine her battle-ready nail design would look something like this.
Pink Lines
We're still in love with the negative nail trend, and it looks even sweeter in baby pink. Simply add a strip of thin tape horizontally, then paint over in your favorite lacquer. Wait until tacky, then remove the tape. Once the color is completely dry, finish the look with a clear top coat.
