After applying the base coat, paint the nails on your pinkie, middle nail, and forefinger. The rest of your fingernails should have a white base color. Make sure to apply a second coating on all your nails.
Step 3. Marbled Design

In a glass of water, add a drop of white nail polish then pink. Repeat this multiple times. Using a toothpick, swirl the drops around to create marble design.
Dip your tape-covered finger in the design, picking out the excess polish with a toothpick.
Step 4. Design With Polka-Dotted Pink Heart

Fold a piece of scotch tape together. Then cut half a heart right where you folded the tape. When you pull the tapes apart, you’ll have a perfectly proportional heart-shaped design.
Place it on your thumb and apply pink polish. Once you peel off the tape, you’ll be left with a pink heart right in the middle of your thumbnail.
Using a toothpick, add white dots inside the pink heart.
Step 5. Design With Hearts and Dots

On your pink nails, dab three dots in a line in the middle of the nails. At the end of the line, create little white hearts using a toothpick. You can create these little hearts by dabbing three dots and mixing them together to create a heart.
Apply a top coat to keep your pink heart nail art from chipping. This super cute design will be perfect for a romantic Valentine’s Day!
