Conversation Heart Nail Tutorial

conversation heart nail tutorial
Boz and I are going away for a romantic weekend in Tahoe, and with Valentine's day right around the corner I knew I had to have something extra sweet for my nails.

Colors used: SinfulColors Beautiful Girl, China Glaze Peachy Keen, ORLY Lemonade, Wet N Wild Totally Rad, ORLY Lollipop

I started with two coats of each color


Then using white SinfulColors nail art I carefully outlined a heart on each nail

Then using a raspberry colored sharpie marker I wrote out my cutie words on each nail

then I added a clear coat. I've never used sharpie on my nails before, but I would assume you need a clear coat to keep the letters from washing off. Wait until the sharpie ink is totally dry before you clear coat or else it will bleed.

All done!
