Glittering Valentine’s Day Nails

The

last Valentine’s day nail art look

I shared was a very simple red glitter polish. I went a step further this time and used actual glitter in the design! I was going to make little hearts and stuff, but I decided this look was classier and more versatile. Besides, I can’t say no to glittering Valentine’s Day nails!

Materials:

• Nude/Pink nail polish

• Fine iridescent glitter in pink (I used

  Martha Stewart’s Cotton Candy

  )

• Clear nail polish

• Pink nail gems

Instructions:

• Starting with clean, dry nails, paint one coat of pink polish on every nail. Let dry.

• Do a second coat of pink on every nail

  except

  the accent nails (I picked my ring fingers for these). Let dry.

• While the others are drying, paint the accent nails (one at a time) and immediately sprinkle with glitter so that it sticks! Let dry.

• On the the thumbs, using either the clear or the pink polish, paint a thick french tip and immediately cover it in glitter. Let dry.

• When all nails are dry, seal in look with clear top coat, skipping the glitter portions if you like. I skipped the glitter so that it would stay extra sparkly!

• While the nails are still wet, add a nail gem to the bottom center of each non-accent nail.

• Enjoy your sweet Valentine’s manicure… and your Valentine’s Day!
