*post contains PR samples

Hello lovelies,

I'm still not done with Valentine's Day posts and I've had a person pointing out that I'm forgetting about people who are single on Valentine's Day or just don't like this day. So I came up with today's design that I named Target My Heart. It is my expression of hurt, anger and any other emotion tied to a hearbreak when you just want to 'shoot' the other one to the heart...we've all been there, it sucks!

I have used beautiful red creme Illamasqua Throb as a base colour and very cool Dance Legend Top Geometric glitter topper which contains black & white glitter of different shapes and sizes. And of course OPI Alpine Snow for the accent nail. Then I painted the black target and bullet holes with black acrylic paint.

I have entered this manicure into Nail Polish Canada's Valentine's Day Nail Art Challenge contest so if you'd like to vote for me you can do so HERE. Thank you ;)

Hope you liked it and see you tomorrow! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

In response to THIS post I've decided to recreate my dotted swirls design with tutorial and also in Valentine's Day colours! This post is also part of a Bestie Twin Nails I'm doing with Antonia from @nailsandpolkadots on Instagram. So check her out, she's a budding and talented nail artist!

For this manicure I've used three OPI polishes - Alpine Snow, Big Apple Red and If You Moust You Moust; then of course base coat (Glisten & Glow Stuck on Blu! Base coat) and topcoat (Seche Vite Topcoat). It is best to use dotting tool to achieve the same sized-dots but if you don't have dotting tools, a bobby pin with rounded end or a pin stuck in a pencil will work too.

I've prepared a video tutorial where I share some tips and tricks to the perfect and uniform swirls so hope you'll like it...if you do, please don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel ;)

So that's it, hope you like the manicure and find it easy to do. If you recreate please tag me and add #lucysstash, I'd really love to see your manicures :)

Have a lovely day! Lucie x
