As I was reading through the steps for this Valentine’s Day nail art, I saw that it said to use white and add “shine.” It took me a second to realize that the white exclamation point wasn’t actually shine but polish! I love the black with the pink and reds, it makes it a little different. So fun! You can find this tutorial here.

So what do you think? Which of these are you going to give a try this Valentine’s Day? I think I might start with something simple, although I’m feeling mighty inspired like I might be able to do some of these!
