Hearts On Point

This is my second nail art design for Valentines Day. This design works best on pointed or stiletto nails so that the point at the bottom of the heart uses the tip of the nail as its outline. This design is really easy and you don't need any nail art pens or brushes, just use your favourite pink or red polish to paint the hearts! I wanted to create something pretty and super sparkly so the base polish I used was OPI's Turn On The Haute Light. This is a silver polish from the Coca-Cola collection, it is definitely my favourite silver polish as it is very shiny and it gives good coverage unlike most glitter polishes that need numerous coats. On top of the silver I applied one coat of OPI's In True Stefani Fashion which is a silver polish with small to medium size pieces of glitter in it - with a coat of glitter on top it makes this silver polish amazingly sparkly so I would recommend using these two polishes together to make a good combo.

How to get this look:

Apply a base coat and then two coats of your base colour, I used OPI's silver Turn On The Haute Light. Optionally apply one coat of a glitter polish over the silver to make your nails ultra shimmery.

Using a red or pink polish carefully draw the heart one half at a time. Make sure the heart outline follows the shape of your nail at the tip. Try to draw each half of the heart in one smooth stroke starting at the rounded top and moving inwards toward the tip and then repeat on the other side to make a full heart.

Finish by applying a top coat.
