No matter your skill level, fall in love with our Valentine’s-ready nail inspo…
Who doesn’t love a themed manicure? Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to indulge your nails with a super-cute makeover, from shades of pink and red to French tips with love hearts. No matter your skill set, we’ve got a gorgeous mix of nail inspo for you.
Red tips with hearts
If you love your French tips and fancy switching it up, these red tips with pink hearts are a match made in heaven.
After applying your OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, use a fine nail art brush to carefully apply a red nail varnish like No7’s Gel Finish Nail Polish in Pillarbox to the tips of your nails. Once that’s dried, use another nail art brush to draw on the hearts using your pink nail varnish. Looking for the perfect Valentine’s pink for your hearts? Look no further than Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in shade Strawberry Cheesecake.
Love letter nails
Roses are red, violets are blue – these nails are so cute, and perfect for you!
Embrace the Valentine’s Day tradition of love letters by recreating these white nails with red hearts. The small hearts make these subtle yet super-sweet – and of course, the white-and-red colour combo gives a classic Valentine’s Day feel.
Apply a coat of OPI Infinite Shine Gel Like Polish in shade Alpine Snow, then, once dried, use a nail art brush to carefully draw on small hearts using Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Nail Polish in Rhapsody Red.
Cupid’s rainbow
Looking for something sweet, but not a fan of nail art? Feel lovey-dovey with a gradient of pinks and reds, creating an adorable Valentine’s Day manicure while being relatively easy and fab for beginners.
Simply gather your pink and red nail varnishes, organising them light pink to red. Paint your little fingernail with a light pink like Essie Nail Polish in shade Ballet Slippers, painting your ring finger with a slightly darker pink, your middle finger a hot pink, before finally painting your index and thumb with red and a slightly darker red.
Now you’ve gotten your nail inspo sealed with a kiss, why not treat your nails to some extra loving with a nourishing nail and cuticle treatment? Or, why not discover a Valentine’s Day gift perfect for any budget? Get into the spirit this season of love with Boots.
