20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art Designs

Modified: Mar 18, 2022 by Elisabeth Kruger · This post may contain affiliate links · 2 Comments

20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsAhh Valentine’s Day. The day that we girls are guaranteed chocolates, flowers and romance (unless it’s a leap year, of course, then it’s the girls’ turn to treat the guys). Since I love to theme-ify pretty much everything, I went on the hunt for some of the best and most appropriately romantic nail art tutorials to fit this love-filled holiday. So whether you’re going out for a fancy dinner, cozying up together on an outdoor picnic, or even just spending the night with a couple of your dearest girlfriends (and wine), make sure your nails reflect the charming yearly reminder of love.

Love is in the Air

Love is in the Air - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art Designs

They say that when you’re madly in love you have your head in the clouds; well for the beginning stages, at least. If that’s how you’re feeling than you may as well depict it on your nails, too!

Love Letters

Love Letters - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsRemember how many love letters you used to write and receive back in school? I don’t really get love letters anymore (it’s more like love post-its), but maybe I can hint with these adorable envelope nails.

Cats in Love

Cats in Love - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsIs there anything cuter than these lovey-dovey cats? The pink tips give a nice little hint of romance while the cats really bring home the love. All you really need is a dotting tool (a bobby pin will work just as well).

Negative Space Hearts

Negative Space Hearts - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsNegative space (or cutouts) on the nails are really trendy right now, so integrating that into your loved-up nail art is a great way to stay fashionable. This tutorial is especially perfect for those who aren’t so good with thin, perfect outlines.

Floral Hearts

Floral Hearts - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsIf regular old hearts are just too boring for your booming personality, then this floral heart design may really catch your eye. Get ready for all the oohing and ahhing that you’ll be hearing and people fawn over your fresh and funky nails!

Sailor’s Heart

Sailor’s Heart - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsTake a dip in the nautical theme for something a little less obvious than floating hearts.  Although this design incorporates a few hearts, the blue and white stripes take the focus off somewhat, so it’s not quite as in-your-face as some of the others.

Heart Tips

Heart Tips - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsThis is one of my absolute favorite looks because it’s a bit more understated, yet it’s so damn clever and effective. Oh, and it’s super quick and easy to do! If you want the hearts to stand out even more, do them on a white background.

Key to My Heart

Key to My Heart - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsThis concept really is so fresh and so much fun. If you and glitter aren’t the best of friends, though, just use black or any regular color nail polish for the key.

Ikat Hearts

Ikat Hearts - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsDon’t you just love the use of the ikat pattern here to put a spin on the traditional hearts? I’m a fan of the pink combination, but you can use different shades of reds or purples if you prefer. And if you don’t have three separate shades, use a bit of white to mix up what you do have to create the perfect color combination.

Give Me a Kiss

Give Me a Kiss - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsInstead of heart, make smooches! You can do these on a white background, too, but I actually really like the blue and red combination.

Simple Heart

Simple Heart - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsSo what do you do if you want a nice subtle Valentine’s heart but just can’t seem to paint those perfect hearts, freehand? This tutorial shows you a genius way to make a stencil from washi tape so that you get a perfect heart for your perfect date.

Color Blocking

Color Blocking - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsTry something a little more modern and a little less hearty with this color blocking design. The color scheme gives you the Valentine’s feel, but you can still keep the look for a few days afterwards without feeling like you’re pushing it too far (like people who keep their trees up way past Christmas).

Heart Stems

Heart Stems - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsHere’s a simple way to add a little something extra to your hearty nails; the vertical lines almost look like stems, making these look like flower hearts – a perfect combination!

Dotted Hearts

Dotted Hearts - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsIf you prefer something a little more simple and understated then all you have to dot a heart on your nail. You can make one on each nail, or just got for one accent nail like in the video.

Non-Red

Non-Red - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsI had to put this one in to prove that you don’t have to feel bound by bright pinks, reds or purples. If you simple aren’t a fan of those colors then there’s no need to use them just because it’s February 14th. Pick your favorite color, add a heart, and you’re good to go!

Plaid Hearts

Plaid Hearts - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsFor a little something different, add some plaid to your design. You’ll be surprised to see how easy it actually is to create the lines with the right tools. The result is a perfectly themed design that’s fun, flirty and girly.

Barbed Wire Heart

Barbed Wire Heart - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsIf you’re a little more hardcore with a guarded heart then you’ll really enjoy this one. The hearts still make it Valentine’s-ey, but the barbed wire makes it just that little bit less fluffy and cute. Awesome!

Heartbeat

Heartbeat - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsDoes your love make your heart skip a beat? Show it off with this awesome heartbeat pattern. It’s fun and cute, and offers a nice little twist on the traditional heart design. And don’t worry about the tape part not being perfect; you can fix any bleeding or irregular lines with the black outline.

Pastel Love

Pastel Love - 20 Ridiculously Cute Valentine’s Day Nail Art DesignsPastels are perfect for the springtime, so the inclusion of some cute little hearts makes this an ideal, on-trend nail art design for the day of romance.
