Hi my lovelies!
Since it’s valentines day tomorrow, I thought the last themed design should be a broken heart anti valentines day nail art post. If you fancy reading all my previous valentines day manis, you can look all of them up on my blog. Just keep on reading if you’d like to know how I did these:
Tutorial:
First of, the base is two coats of one of my favourite polishes of all time, ‘Lincoln Park After Dark’ by OPI. Obviously, you can pick any shade you like as your base colour. Because it’s an anti valentines day mani I decided to go dark. But since it’s your decision, you could do the opposite and go light.
The heart shape is up next, for this step use some white acrylic paint and a dotting tool. Make two dots in the middle of each nail, both dots should touch for the top of the heart shape. With a small brush and some more acrylic paint, finish the heart shape. Go over all nails with a top coat to make the acrylic paint less visible and to smooth out the surface.
With the same thin brush, take your base colour and create a small zig-zag line down through the heart. This will split the heart into two pieces.
Next up, take the same brush and a red polish, I used ‘Red my Fortune Cookie’ by OPI. With this, fill in the white broken heart. The white base will help the red polish stand out, therefore, this is a rather important step in my eyes. If you paint the heart with the red polish from the start it will look much less visible. If you don’t believe me, go ahead and try it out on one of the nails. I’m sure you will be able to see a big difference!
Finally, apply a top coat to make the broken heart anti valentines day mani look more slick and also to make it last longer.
Thank you so much for reading my broken heart anti valentines day nail art post and I hope you enjoyed it. If you decided to recreate any of these, please let me know in the comments below or tag me on any of the social media platforms listed below, I would love to hear from you!
