Tips for Making Valentine Nails Last

Detailed art like lettering, tiny hearts and kiss prints sits on the surface of the nail, so seal it under a glossy top coat and refresh that top coat every few days to stop the edges wearing first. Deep reds can stain, so never skip your base coat, and keep cuticle oil on hand — February air is dry, and hydrated nails hold polish and fine detail much longer.

From one tiny outlined heart to a full set of pop-art doodles, there is a Valentine manicure here for every mood — loved-up, single, or somewhere happily in between. Pick your favourite, book the appointment, and wear your heart on your nails.
