Jamie Ahn, co-founder of J&S Nail Polish, created this Valentine's Day nail design using J&S Nail Polish in Jet Black and Jealous, Aspen Ice and Cherry Bomb.

Get the look:

To create dots, pour a small amount of polish onto a hard, non-porous surface. Depending on how large you want your dots, either dip a Q-tip (with all traces of cotton removed), a toothpick or a bobby pin into the polish and tap onto nails.

To create a perfectly even French tip line, Ahn says to hold the nail flat on a table, start the line with polish and then and move your finger, not the polish brush.

Say it in neon with an acid trip technicolor polish like American Apparel Neon Nail Polish.

Skip the hearts and go for a glam, Gatsby-esque Valentine's Day nail design that's sure to stun. Sally Hansen's Global Color Ambassador Madeline Poole designed the look based on Stella McCartney's Autumn 2015 show.

Get the look:

Step 1: Apply two coats of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Let's Snow.

Step 2: Paint a large gold moon with Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Gilty Party at the base of the nail with a detail brush.

Step 3: A few millimeters below the gold, paint a second moon with Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Pat On The Black, leaving a line of gold above it.

Step 4: A few millimeters below the black, paint an even smaller moon in Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Diamond Jubilee.

Step 5: Allow colors to dry and apply a topcoat.
