Use code DNLW10 for a 10% discount on everything.


This is fairly easy to make but a little time consuming.

1. Add 2 layers of any pale nude pink polish.
2. Coat with a transparent glitter polish and paint a french.
3. Using the acrylic powder build or mold a heart and add it wherever you want on the pink side of the nail.

4. Add a blue AB rhinestone in the middle of the french line.
5. Start making an outline with silver microbeads on each side of the stone. I used a toothpink for it. Doing this while the topcoat is wet will help you glide the beads around very easy.
6. Add 1 pink rhinestone on both side of the blue one and continue adding beads around all 3 of them until you get something like this:
7. Add some pink micro beads under each side of the heart. Make the beads line curve a little.
8. Coat the hearts only with glitter topcoat so they won't look dull.
9. Seal everything in 2 layers of topcoat and add cuticle oil.
