Valentine's Day: Polka Dot Manicure

Polka dots are back, beautiful people! This simplistic pattern gives a girly touch to your nails, perfectly suited for Valentine's Day. Mmm hmm, the day that many of us girls rush to get ready to look the best we can for a fun day out with friends or significant others. Polka dots nails are flirty and feminine, and it shows that you put a little extra effort to dress up ;) And, it's one of the easiest nail art to do!

Tip: Start with dotting the middle dot. That will provide bearing so your dots won't look lopsided.
Alternative colour combinations:
Pink with gold dots; black with white dots; red with black dots; blue with gold dots; dusty rose with white dots; turquoise with white dots and a list of endless possibilities ;) it's all up to your creativity! Mix around with matte and glossy finishes, dark and light colours, metallic and solid colours.
Go with more romantic or feminine colours like pinks, golds, white, beigh, nudes, creams, or reds if it's for Valentine's Day <3

My dotting tool was the rounded end of a sewing pin. You can use a toothpick, a pen which has ran out of ink, rounded end of a bobby pin or any object with a small rounded tip.
 

Polishes used:
Background: Essense Cut Off The Beigh
Dots: Revlon Vixen
