A neat, stylish manicure is an integral part of a finished female image. If earlier it was enough just to paint your nails with red varnish - for special occasions, with a pale pink tint - for everyday life, now this is not enough. Moreover, there are no restrictions in manicure now, and you can use for it not only any colors, but also completely different materials: from sequins to pieces of fur. Of course, not every one of them is designed to live outside the catwalk. One of the trends in nail design, which has been occupying a leading position for more than a year, is silver manicure.
Think about the beauty of nails
Impeccable manicure of silver shades with various color combinations, techniques with its brilliance and gloss attracts eyes. It can be glossy and mirror, with sequins or sequins, combined with delicate pink or strict black, cover nails in whole or in part, be the basis for fashionable geometric patterns. The choice is so huge that every girl will find her own. After all, a manicure should be appropriate to the image, to the style of clothing and lifestyle.
Silver manicure is always solemn and unusual, while it fits almost any color of clothing. It can be in the form of a uniform coating, large spangles, lines, patterns, stripes. A huge selection of designs is achieved thanks to a variety of materials and application techniques. In the spring or summer sun, such a manicure will shine and shimmer, without leaving its owner unnoticed. You can create a manicure with silver lacquer, shiny and shimmering in the sun, either by yourself or by a nail design master.
French, or moonlight manicure in silver tones
French manicure is a real classic. But now this is not only a combination of natural pink or beige and white stripes of the edge of the nail. Now the basis can be any color, for example, black, blue, lilac, and the strip is silver. It can be made metallic lacquer, sequins or special foil. Any design begins with cleaning and processing of the nail plate and cuticle. Without this, the manicure will look sloppy.
After you have prepared the nails, cover them with a base. Moreover, even if the manicure is performed with ordinary varnish, and not gel, it is better not to skip this step. The base will strengthen the nail plate, allow the varnish to lie more evenly and last longer. After the base has dried, apply a silver varnish or strip of foil to the tip of the nail.
Another fashionable option is a moon manicure, when such a strip is glued or drawn at the base of the nail. And so that the lines are clear and neat, glue special strips on the nail plate, apply silver, glitter or glitter varnish, and after drying, remove it. The line will be clear. Now it remains to fix everything with a top coating.
Total silver
The manicure looks shiny, glossy and unusual , glossy, like a mirror. You can do it in two ways:
- using a special heat-resistant film;
- using manicure foil.
In the first case, a pre-heated film is applied to a pre-processed, polished, fat-free nail. You can buy it in any store that sells the attributes of a nail design. Spread out so that the coating is smooth, remove excess with nail scissors. Such a silver manicure, in addition to excellent appearance, is good for two more reasons:
- It is very simple, easy to do on your own;
- lasts two to three weeks.
The technique for performing manicure with foil is similar. The only thing is, it does not need to be heated. First, the base is applied to the nail, after - the foil, it needs to be smoothed out properly. It turns out a brilliant and bright manicure that shimmers under daylight or artificial light. To increase the period of socks, you can cover your nails with a top, but then the brightness of the silver will fade somewhat.
Monochrome
The combination of black and white is another classic that is relevant not only in clothes, but also in nail design, too. To soften the sharpness of the color transition a little, choose a black and silver manicure: an elegant, but no less restrained and impeccable combination. At the same time, black varnish can be either glossy or matte.
You can combine different textures of the coating in one design, thereby making it more original. For example, on one hand, paint two nails - matte varnish, the rest glossy. Drawings can be very diverse: actual geometric shapes, abstraction, French or lunar. In combination with gray and black, a gradient is obtained well: a smooth transition from one tone to another. On a gray background, you can draw a black feather, decorating it with rhinestones.
Tenderness and romance
For lovers of airy robes and delicate natures, a pink-silver manicure is suitable . The combination of natural powdery shades on the nails with light tones of gray will appeal to young, romantically minded girls. Here you can use silver lacquer, sparkles, rhinestones, glitter (special shiny powder).
Cover your nails with pastel pink as a base, and glitter the nail edge or hole, depending on whether you like a french or moonlight. Alternate pink nails with shiny. You can also add white. The combination of matte shades of gray and pink looks beautiful. You can decorate with rhinestones, but you should not overdo it with them.
Disco manicure
Want to look bright and always be in the spotlight? Then for you shimmering like a disco ball, a manicure with silver sparkles. Moreover, they can cover all nails in whole or in part. Such a manicure is better to cover with a top. But it lasts much longer than others, especially if you make it a regular varnish. Spangles on a pink background look very beautiful and gentle, on black - more contrast and bright.
Shining manicure
Such a design is more appropriate at parties, events, birthdays and more than in everyday life. Silver manicure can be done with a special nail polish with a metallic sheen, this is the easiest option. Prepare the nail plate by polishing and degreasing it. Cover with the necessary varnish in 2 layers, fix with a top on top.
You can also make such a manicure with special chrome powder, but this is no longer a task for beginners, as it will require certain skills. Pigment is applied to gel polish! The nail is processed, after which it is covered with a base, then a varnish-base. Most often black. On it, the mirror effect of the powder looks best.
The finest aluminum powder, which, in fact, is any such powder, is applied to the nail and rubbed into it until the coating becomes uniformly silver, glossy and radiant. Then, without fail, such a manicure is fixed with a top. If you know how to handle gel polishes, you have a special lamp, then you can try to make such a design yourself. If not, then you can turn to a good manicurist.
