So, are yo ready to see what they look like? 

 I love how these nails turned out! They were very simple. I started with a base coat, and then painted all but my ring finger mint green. Then while that dried, I applied one coat of a neon pink to my ring finger. After allowing the mint green to dry for a couple minutes, using a detail brush and white acrylic paint, I painted 3-5 vertical lines. You could skip this step or use a nail striper. Then while the lines dried for a couple minutes I applied one coat of a pink glitter over the neon pink on my ring finger. Next, I went in with a dotting tool and the neon pink nail polish, I created the 2 small hearts on all but my ring finger and thumb. You could use a toothpick for this step. I'll insert a graphic of how I paint my heats below. Now, I moved onto my thumb. Using a detail brush I painted a larger heart with the neon pink polish. I outlined the larger heart in the same white paint and brush used to make the lines. Then, I went over all the hearts with a little of the pink glitter. Then, I let my nails dry for a couple minutes before applying one coat of my favorite fast drying top coat. Lastly, I used a paint brush dipped in nail polish remover to clean up any polish that got on my skin, and applied some cuticle oil.

How I use a dotting tool to paint small hearts 

Step 1, using a dotting tool or toothpick place 2 small dots where you want to top of your heart to be. 

Step 2, Drag the left dot down gently to a point.

Step 3, Drag the right dot down gently to a point, meeting the first line you pulled down. This will create the point at the bottom of the heart.
