1. Heart Cut Out Nails

Heart cut out nails for Valentine’s Day are ! And the good news is you ca do them at home. Here’s what you need:

• Full or half nails tips: these ones are great.
• A good e-file to create the heart cut out: I (Marie) love this one. You need to create two holes in your tips and then a third one to join the two and create the heart.
• Nail polish: You can use classic nail polish on top of your tips. However, I’ve recently found out about dip powder and absolutely love it. It’s super easy and I don’t need to cure my nails with a UV lamp. This dip powder is great for beginners and offers a large range of Valentine’s Day colors.
• Time and patience: With this style, it’s better to take your time and go slowly while your creating the cut outs.
