Hey There Polished People!
I’m not feeling all too chatty today. I feel like all my attempted Valentine’s Day nails are turning out to be a mess. These are no exception, but maybe you’ll like the idea and do a better job yourself. The lady at the bank today really loved them and couldn’t believe I’d done them myself, so at least that was good. When I look at them I’m just like, “Ugggghhhhh!!!” Let’s see what you think.
Valentine’s Day Chevron Tip Heart Nails
How To Get These Nails:
- Use your favorite basecoat.
- Paint your nails with Ulta Baby Doll. I kinda hate this polish, it’s streaky and took like 3 coats to only be mostly opaque. It was annoying, and I just didn’t remember it being this way. I recommend using a different baby pink color.
- Use Essie Nothing Else Metals to paint the chevron tips on each nail. See this chevron tips tutorial if you don’t know how, they’re super easy. 🙂
- Use a dotting tool and Jessica Secret Love to make the hearts right above the chevron tip.
- Apply topcoat and call it macaroni!
I think I would like these better if the chevron tip and the heart were the same color, also I would have been happier if my hearts didn’t turn out sloppily. I don’t know what was wrong with me. Let me know if you try these nails yourself. Do you have a Valentine’s Day mani planned? Let me know in the comments below! Thanks for reading and till next time- Happy Polishing!! 😀
Polish Me, Please! 
I actually like the definition that divides the halves of the heart. Love the design.
Thank you! I think I just had a little bit of a shaky hand that day. Oh well! 🙂
I could smack you… You’re being silly. I in all honesty really like these and what I like most about them seems to be what you dislike the most. I like that the chevron and heart are two different colors. It would be boring if they were the same. And my favorite parts are the hearts. I like that they’re not cookie cutter. They’re not sloppy at all, but they have that crafty hand made look to them that I like 🙂 So stop being such a turd. (I meant that with love)
Ok ok I’ll stop!! Haha. Thanks for smacking me back into shape. ;p
Lovely design!
Thank you! 🙂
I’m not doing anything special on my nails for Valentine’s Day….maybe I’ll paint them black. ha! I’ve been super moody lately and I just want everyone to shut up and leave me alone. lol I probably wouldn’t do these nails because they’re girlie. 😛 I’m seriously PMS’ing…what a bummer. Yeah, TMI…
Hey that’s ok. I understand. Maybe I’ll paint mine black for valentines day too. :p I wore those hearty ones for like 2 hours. I did them, but they’re not exactly my style.
I think these are cute but too girly for me to wear. I don’t see anything wrong with them but I also know how it feels to be ones own worse critic. I think I’ll wear blue this Valentine’s Day.
Yeah they were a little too pick and heartsy for me too. I actually had blue nails for valentines day. I had a navy/denim blue base w silver herringbone. 🙂
Guess what, I wore Butler Please on V-Day!
Good choice!! 🙂 When I picked that up, it was so hard not to get one for myself because it’s so pretty!! I may end up getting it yet. 🙂
I like this and I think it’s super cute!!!
I like the silver chevrons and that’s actually my fav bit!
Actually no I don’t have any Valentine’s manis. I guess I better get on it hey?! Lmao
Thanks!!! I know by this time you have your valentines manis done so I’ll have to pop over to your blog and check em out. I have really been slacking on the blog following. 😦
I think this turned out really cute!!
Thanks! I just didn’t like how my hearts turned out but ehh… Whatever. 🙂
ehmm i think these nails looks great..!
Well thank you!
I really like them what the hell is wrong with you! lol jk but seriously they came out really cute!! ❤
Hahaha! I’m sorry, I’m sorry!! :p thanks. 🙂
I think they look very “Valentine.” I kind of thought I wasn’t a huge fan of them, but I look at them and can’t really find anything wrong with them, sooo…I guess I am on board! I *guess* the hearts are not perfect, perfect, but they likely wouldn’t be unless you stamped or something, and is that really necessary? Hahaha. Your chevrons *are* perfect, though. :p
I sort of did nail art for Valentine’s! I did my thumb, index, and middle with ChG Adventure Red-y, my ring with OPI My Very First Knockwurst with a red heart decal, and Milani Disco Lights on my pinky. I was proud, haha.
Wow! Look at you being all artsy! 🙂 That sounds very cute!! I didn’t even wear these for Valentine’s Day, I actually just wore the blue herringbone nails on that day. I’m a rebel! 😉 Thanks about these nails, even though I can tell you’re torn. It’s ok to not like them. They didn’t do much for me either, if I’m being honest. Idk why.. I’m kinda like you, like I don’t really see anything TOO wrong with them, but nothing too right, either.
