Bright nail design leaves few people indifferent. It becomes especially relevant in the summer, when blooming beauty rages in nature. Undoubtedly, beautiful and well-groomed hands are a good decoration for any woman, but sometimes this is not enough. I want to diversify my appearance as much as possible, and the beauty of the hands is no exception.
To decorate your nails, it is not necessary to rush to nail art specialists; you are quite capable of creating beauty at home. And for this it is not at all necessary to take special courses or be able to draw well. Desire, patience, assertiveness and the desire to achieve your goal will become your main assistants.
Today we want to tell you about one of the types of such a manicure using simple elements available to any nail design beginner. Together with you we will create a bright nail design, a photo of which you can see in our gallery. By the way, walking through it, you will find many other ideas for decorating your pens.
So let’s get started.
To decorate nails, we need:
-
- thin brush or toothpick
-
- decorative varnishes in three colors (burgundy and two pinks – pale and bright)
-
- top coat
-
- We start according to tradition with a hygienic manicure and getting rid of the cuticle. By going to the sections for beginners and on doing a manicure at home and caring for cuticles, you can find a detailed description of such a manicure. By the way, there are several options for its implementation – both hardware and with the help of special tools. Here we will not repeat ourselves and start right away with decorating our nails.
-
- And we will start with a pale pink nail polish. For the best result, cover the nails with two layers, drying each thoroughly. For faster drying, you can use a special liquid in the form of a spray or a UV lamp. It is worth noting that sprays for drying varnish have an oily structure, and therefore, after using them, it is advisable to wipe the handles with a paper towel.
-
- Now we take in our hands a bright pink varnish and a thin brush. Approximately in the middle of the nail, we draw a line diagonally. Now with the same varnish we paint over the corner of the nail plate from the drawn line down. We dry everything thoroughly, otherwise, with further manipulations, the line may be smeared and spoil the whole appearance.
-
- It’s the turn to use a burgundy shade of varnish. With them we will draw the same diagonal line, parallel to the pink one, but slightly lower, by about 2-3 mm. And now we act according to a similar principle – we paint over the corner of the nail from the line down. Try to paint over the tip of the nail well so that the previous layer does not shine through. Dry again.
-
- Do not rush to remove the burgundy varnish, we will still need it for the pattern. With a thin brush or needle, you need to draw three strokes. They should start at one point and then diverge to the sides. If you decide to use a needle, proceed as follows: draw it several times along the bristle of the brush and immediately begin to draw. Many will now ask “why can’t you just dip the needle into the varnish?”. Very simple – in this case, you wet the needle too much, the amount of varnish will be excessive, and you will not be able to draw thin beautiful lines.
-
- So, we drew the strokes. Now, with the same burgundy tone of varnish, we will draw leaves on our strokes. To do this, in the same way that we described above, we collect varnish on the needle. Then we apply the needle to the nail at an acute angle. With correctly performed manipulations, you should get an oblong trace, very similar to a leaf. We draw such leaves on each stroke. We have a beautiful branch. Let the pattern dry well.
-
- After the complete drying of the twig we created, it is necessary to apply a finishing layer to the nails. Such a fixing coating will allow you to extend the life of the manicure. As a top coat, you can use a specially designed top coat or a regular clear varnish. Nail technicians also use a technique called nail sealing. It consists in applying the finishing layer not only on the surface of the nail plate, but also on the end of the nail. This trick will allow the manicure to last longer than usual.
In our example, we used a pink color palette, but you can create such beauty in any color scheme you like. You may want the shades of the manicure to echo with some of your clothing items or a specific accessory.
In any case, you can perform this type of manicure quickly enough and with minimal cash costs.
