facetime: last-minute valentine's day nails

Did you just realize you haven't been very on top of the holiday this year? Grab your favorite polishes and get in the spirit!

You'll need:
a dark red nail polish (I used Essie's Fishnet Stockings)
a bright pink nail polish (I used Rimmel's Baby Pink)

Instructions
Paint every finger in your dark red polish, two coats.
Carefully paint two diagonal strokes in the center of each finger in the shape of a heart. This could take two coats, depending on the quality of your polish. It's okay if you make a mistake, simply take a nail polish remover soaked Q-tip to the mistake.

I'm introducing a new section, "facetime", where I'll be discussing my favorite beauty products and techniques. These are staples I use almost every day, ranging from affordable drugstore items to my favorite high-end (hello, Chanel lipstick!)
