On the nails, you can make chic and vivid drawings and inscriptions - such nail art always looks great and festive. For this, sparkles, liquid stones, stickers, powder, rhinestones, silver and gold foil are used. Elements can be combined with each other. To perform a professional manicure on our own, we need a minimum set of special tools and devices.
But besides this, it is necessary to stock up perseverance, inimitable patience and perseverance. Of course, skill will be required. Naturally, first you need to learn how to properly “cast” nails. In principle, this is not so difficult, you just need to strictly follow the simple rules and observe the design creation technique. At first, the learning process will take a lot of time, but the result will impress you. We will talk about all the intricacies and features of building, as well as step by step describe the procedure itself.
Design features
Surely you not only heard about this method, but also saw how beautiful casting on nails looks. How to make such a luxurious manicure - read below. It should be noted that nail art is performed mainly on artificial plates. To create it, special foil (transfer and non-transfer), gel or glue is used. Let us explain what casting is. This is a beautiful pattern that is created on a strip of polymerized gel using
foil stamping.First, the master does a nail extension. Casting, as already mentioned, is performed only on artificial plates. Then the nails are covered with a special gel and placed for 5 minutes under an ultraviolet lamp - to dry. The foil is adhered to the sticky gel surface and the polymerization procedure again under UV rays is repeated. The exposure time is assigned by the master individually.
To get a bizarre image, the foil must be sharply removed from the nail plate. On this procedure is considered complete. If you have never tried to perform such tricks before, we recommend that you first carefully study the theory, watch master classes (ideally videos), and then move on
to practice. Mastering the technology is not so difficult, very soon you will be able to independently paint your nails.
Gold casting among fashionistas is most popular. Extraordinary solutions will tell your boundless imagination - there are no boundaries. Thin strokes are made with glue, then the surface is dried and a transfer foil is applied to it, after which it is torn off with a sharp movement. If by chance an unfinished area remains, then the procedure is repeated. Foil for creating nail art can be purchased in specialized stores.
Tear-off foil
This is a small roll from which pieces of material can be torn off. Commonly used to create designs on artificial nails. It is applied to the varnish in a chaotic manner, then it is covered with a fixative. If desired, you can make an unusual painting.
Transferable
Available in the form of strips and thin tear-off sheets. The choice of patterns and shades is quite diverse. With its help, you can create original decorative curls and elements. There is a foil with a protective film, it is very convenient to use.
How to do nail casting with "liquid stones"
Nail art by professional masters is fascinating and fascinating. Innovative solutions and technologies are developing rapidly and help us translate the most unexpected ideas into reality. To date, casting on nails with iridescent “liquid stones” is considered the most fashionable and extravagant. The effect of volumetric pattern and shine of the metal is achieved through foil. We offer you to try this technique yourself. To create a manicure you will need:
- tear-off (gold) foil;
- brushes (natural, angular and “hair”);
- different shades of art gels;
- stained glass gel;
- protective gel;
- thick sculptural gel;
- UV lamp.
First step
Sand the plates with a nail file, cut off the cuticle and draw a french with white gel. Place your fingers under the UV lamp for about two minutes, then apply a protective gel to the surface and repeat the polymerization.
Second step
Take the “hair” brush and the black color art gel and draw wide lines (so that the foil fits). Hold your fingers for several minutes under UV rays. We carefully lay the matte side of the foil on the plate, or rather on the lines shown, and then sharply tear it off. You will see how a beautiful golden trace remained on the nail. We carry out the procedure with all the patterns - this is called molding.
Third step
We proceed to the framing of "stones." We take color gels and draw blotches (it is better to use 2 shades). We stand for several minutes under UV rays and cover with
stained glass gel. Fix the polymer with a lamp.
Fourth step
We make the decor more natural and natural, for this we need a sculpted gel and a thin brush. We carry out the polymerization, then cover the nail with a protective gel and fix the result with a lamp. Charming and bright manicure will complement the look. And how beautiful the “pebbles” will shimmer in the sun - just a sight for sore eyes!
Create a gold pattern with glue
1. Casting on nails can also be done using special glue and transfer foil. First, draw a pattern on the plate. The glue has a dull color, but when it dries, it becomes transparent, so do not be alarmed and wait for it to dry thoroughly. It’s even better to dry out a bit so that our pattern does not smear.
2. Apply the foil to the image with the matte side and press firmly, then quickly tear it off. The golden film will remain at the place of painting. If there are empty spots in the figure, repeat the procedure. Try to apply the foil carefully and do not move it.
Advantages and disadvantages
Here is such a simple technique. Nail casting is always interesting, colorful and spectacular. But far from all, such a design is suitable. Firstly, the nail plate is embossed and voluminous, and this is not very convenient for women who housekeeping. Secondly, the technology is more suitable for owners of long artificial nails, which not every girl can afford.
However, the disadvantages end there. Volumetric drawing gives the nails sophistication and elegance, thanks to which the pens look well-groomed! And this is despite everyday chores. You do not have to re-apply the varnish after each wash or wet cleaning, because the foil on the glue or gel lasts about two weeks. Also among the indisputable and significant advantages include:
- the convenience and simplicity of creating a bright, bold and unique manicure at home;
- application speed;
- original and bold effect, which is difficult to achieve with even expensive varnishes;
- the ability to create an individual nail art with exquisite details.
Foil molding is an innovation in the world of the nail industry and aesthetics. Such a manicure with a metallic sheen and a color hologram fascinates others, gives the impression that precious stones are applied to the nail plate. This technology was highly appreciated by world celebrities. A manicure with a foil is unique, while it does not require significant costs.
