Valentine’s Day Nail Swatches – It’s Love at First Swatch!

Happy (early) Valentine’s Day! What does this day mean to you: an opportunity to spoil your loved one or a get-paid holiday created by retailers? To Mary and me, this is just another day to have lots of fun with our makeup and nails (like every other day :P).

This holiday is always filled with reds and pinks, so we’ve included a selection of our favorites! But of course, it wouldn’t be Swatch And Learn’s style to just give you just that. No! We’ve got some nail art and colors that usually aren’t associated with Valentine’s Day.

Just make sure to click on the images to see more swatches and full reviews. Let us know what you think of our choices and what your fave V Day nail colors are!
