Celebrity nail tech Elle delivers seriously sweet Valentine’s Day nail inspiration

Celebrity Nail Tech Elle shares a little Valentine’s Day nail inspiration. As a top manicurist who regularly works on the nails of celebs like Jennifer Lopez, Lena Dunham, Blake Lively, Heidi Klum and Michelle Williams, Elle understands the technical/chemical aspect of nails (her father was a chemist who manufactured nail products!) as well as the beauty side of polish. She also knows that if a woman wants to feel confident, especially on a romantic date night, her manicure must reflect her personality! So without further ado, check out three sexy shades to take your V-Day mani to the next level.

For the ‘sweetheart girl,’ paint a light, translucent pink hue on the nail, such as Dermelect’s ‘Indulgence’, and top it with holiday-appropriate nail art, such as pink hearts or polka dots using a brighter, playful pink, like Dermelect’s ‘Moxie.’

For the ‘Vixen girl,’ an edgy crimson red with blue undertones, such as Dermelect’s ‘Blue Blood,’ or even a rich, metallic black can make a major statement.

For the ‘glamour girl,’ choose a classic red hue for nails, such as Dermelect Cosmeceuticals’ ‘Red-iculous’ paired with a shiny top coat

Lastly, for the ‘daring girl’ try to incorporate pink and red hues together by creating a half moon or French manicure with the two colors. Do you love it? Sound off in the comment section below!
