Striping Tape Mani - Valentine's Day Special (Tutorial)

Here is a quick nail art you can do on Valentine's day - you can swap the colors I used with a combo of red and white or red and black. Striping tape is a thin tape that is available at nail art supply stores. I will explain the basic steps for beginners (this is my first try with striping tape!)

1. Begin by painting your nails in the color you want to show up when you remove the tape. I alternated with a teal and a brown shade as a base. Let this dry completely.

Remember its not the cost but the thought that matters so chose something that fits your budget. While the boys can go through the post to find out things to get for their girl, there are some cool options that girls can pick for their guy. Make it special for each other people!!!!

Valentine's Nail Art Tutorial - Lady Bug Hearts

hi friends, today I'm sharing a nail art tutorial after a very long time. My nails are really short and I just didn't have the  mindset of doing any nail art but finally dragged myself of doing a cute nail art for Valentines day. I hope you find this tutorial useful.

I wanted to participate in a nail art challenge where the theme was animal print and all that came to my mind was leopard prints or giraffe prints. So then I decided I'll instead  do something that you guys can use for Valentine's day. And then it clicked, I thought why not merge the two themes together, so here is a Lady Bug Heart Nail Art - lady bug for the animal theme, and my favorite hearts for Valentine's day!

I did this in a hurry so the base is a single coat of a holo polish that I reviewed HERE. You can opt for any light colored base (my suggestion would be go for a pale pink, lavender or even lemon)

So here are the steps that you can use to create this super easy simple nail art for Valentine's Day.

Happy Valentine's Day

I am a die hard romantic at heart and for people like me just one day is really not enough to celebrate love.
I long for love every single day of my existence. Unfortunately people like me often get hurt more than loved and yet our belief in true love never dies.

So to all of you out there who are in love with someone, something, someplace or simply in love with the idea of being in love, 

Happy Valentine's Day


Rejoice, celebrate and if you don't have a special someone to make this day special for you, don't worry, buy yourself something nice, a huge bar of chocolate, a bunch of red roses, a new dress, anything that expresses love for you and makes you happy!

And to enjoy the day even more, be the reason for someone else's smile today. Give the gift of love and spread the cheer around you.

I saw this video yesterday and thought it was worth sharing - awesome and heart touching!
