I’m just going to say it: It’s hard to feel cute in February.

If you want to radiate romance this month, consider this the look for you.

Hello, date night nails.

Try a light neutral tone, like this Bambi beige, for an elevated contrast.

A true red makes a great base for Valentine’s Day nail art.

To mimic this glass-like finish, top the whole look off with a super-shiny clear top coat.

If you’re married or engaged, consider adding the accent nails to your ring fingers.

The look offers the same effect as a classic French, with a fun little twist.

These romantic (and slightly risque) line drawings are the perfect abstract V-Day nail art.

The contrast provides an eye-catching background for these delicate floral line drawings.

Dainty Heart Details

Even a touch of red nail polish can pack a major punch.

We love the gem-like quality that these shiny hearts take on when layered overstrawberry milk polish.

It catches the light so beautifully, you’ll have a hard time taking your eyes off of it.

It creates a cool asymmetry, and we love the way it looks in this deep cherry shade.
