Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, so Red Carpet Manicure (a celeb favorite of Lena Dunham and Camila Alves) released cute and easy nail art right in time for the holiday. Bring your favorite salon a photo or try creating the look yourself. This design was put together by Red Carpet Manicure nail tech Candace Szpeich.

Step 3

3. Using shades such as Take A Bow, Ooo La Liscious, Leading Lady, Red Carped Reddy, and In Style, fill in the heart with dots of various sizes. Cure after every few hears to prevent the colors from blending. Add a few flakes of silver or gold glitter for depth. Lastly, apply Brilliance and cure.
