Kouturekiss - A Valentines Day Bow Mani

OMG, girls! It’s almost Valentine’s Day! Do you know what you are going to do, what to wear and what kind of nail art you are going to put yet? Ok, ok don’t stress! If you don’t have any inspiration for your nails, just continue reading and get some inspiration from my Valentine’s Day Bow Mani. It is very easy to do, it won’t take too long to master (it’s done in a few steps), and I’m sure your date will love it! Ok, lets get started, shall we?

Since it’s Valentine’s Day, I opted for a red nail polish, so make sure you have a red nail polish in front of you, a base and top coat, a red glittery nail polish and some bow stickers. These are the steps:

  1. Apply a base coat and let it dry. You always have to apply a base coat before applying any other nail polishes on your nails. Don’t forget to protect your nails girls! Apply a red nail polish on all nails and let it dry. I’m using the China Glaze #1018 Winter berry nail polish in this tutorial. (more…)

If you have “monolids” like me, “bags” won’t be that visible. But for everyone else, your bags will be darker and more puffy the under eye area than normal. However, I do need to use a concealer to even out color. Many people struggle to cover bags up, but you just need to follow these steps and you’ll be saying “goodbye” to those dark pesky circles forever!

  1. Choose a concealer that is one shade lighter than your foundation and skin tone to create a brightening effect. In the picture above I’m using the Maybelline 24 hour super stay concealer. (more…)
