Blue pedicure: spectacular and original ideas

A beautiful pedicure is an integral part of every girl's daily look. Today there are many styles and colors that can be both classic and original. In this article, we will focus on a blue pedicure, analyze standard and unusual options, various shades of blue.

Blue is one of the favorite colors in psychology. And this is not surprising, because for most people it evokes pleasant associations - summer blue sky, blue sea surface, calmness and serenity. This color is always fashionable, it is suitable for everyday pedicure, and for special occasions.

Consider what shades of blue are the most popular among the fair sex.

• Navy blue. This color is considered truly luxurious, "royal". Its cold shine will be especially pronounced in the light of New Year's garlands, dim home lighting. This shade is ideal for the winter period, but is often found in the summer as well.
• Cobalt. The owner of such a pedicure, no doubt, will be seen by everyone, because this tone is so bright that it hurts the eye in the sun.

• Sapphire. This shade has an incredible blueness, it is cold and very discreet.
• Denim. Colors for lovers of all denim. Looks great in summer and spring.

• Electrician. This option is well suited for young women, as well as those who want to stand out and emphasize their taste. This color is bright, saturated, immediately lifts the mood.
• Ultramarine. A stunning tone that looks defiant but not vulgar. Often needs additional shades for thinning.

If we talk about the advantages of a blue pedicure, then there are several of them:

• the ability to choose among many shades;
• getting an ideal, sophisticated image;
• the best choice for a summer vacation on the beach;

• the ability to combine with other colors, combine different tones;
• perfectly in harmony with both classic and everyday style of clothing.

Designers and nail artists are always full of ideas on how to make their clients happy. Let's dwell on several varieties that have not lost their relevance for a long time.

• Monochrome pedicure. This is an undeniable classic, fashionable at all times. Well-groomed nails with a varnish of the same tone are an excellent example of restraint and dignity.

• French. Another classic option, popular among those who do not like monotony, but also do not want to look provocative. Always versatile, at the peak of popularity at any time of the year.

• With rhinestones. The dark blue version of the pedicure, complemented by several rhinestones, is elegant and sophisticated. However, designers do not recommend using too many pebbles, otherwise a sophisticated pedicure will turn into a tasteless absurdity.

• With floral prints. Flowers are a versatile idea not only for clothing but also for pedicure. They look modern and pretty cute. It is best to choose a light shade of blue, and make flowers in red, pink, yellow tones. If there are difficulties with the choice, ask the master to make white flowers, this is an absolutely safe option.

• Nautical. Since blue is primarily associated with the sea and water, it is most often chosen for summer vacations. Do not limit yourself to a single-color coating, you can use all your imagination here. A great idea would be a sailor suit, which combines three classic colors - red, white and blue. In addition, such a pedicure can be supplemented with a marine theme - the image of the steering wheel, waves, octopus, starfish, palm trees.

• "Broken glass". This idea is just beginning to come into fashion, but has already managed to acquire a lot of fans. Looks perfect on ultramarine and electric blue nails. "Glass" can be made in one color. And they can have different tones, which will allow you to create a unique "nail stained-glass window".

• Space. To create such a pedicure, you will need several shades of blue and purple. Each color is gently taken with a sponge and applied to the nail. Such divorces immediately evoke thoughts of a boundless universe, space films and books.

• Ombre. A similar design began its history in the hairdressing industry, but now the masters are actively using it on their nails. Ombre is a gradual transition of shades, a kind of gradient that does not allow us to understand where this or that shade begins and ends.

Thanks to the huge palette of blue shades, this color can be combined with many tones, creating interesting and unique scales.

White and blue pedicure is always appropriate both in the city and on the beach. White allows you to create almost any pattern: clouds, snowflakes, droplets, fairy-tale figures. It is an essential color for marine pedicure.

A yellow-blue pedicure is a real explosion of emotions, brightness and saturation. An exclusively summer version, you can make it in the form of yellow peas on a blue background (and vice versa), cells, or simply in the form of simple abstract patterns. It must be remembered that this combination requires a certain combination of clothing, at least one thing or accessory must match the pedicure.

A blue-blue pedicure looks very simple, and at the same time gentle. Since these colors are related, they can always be chosen to be combined with each other. Most often, a pedicure with an ombre effect, a marine theme, and a direction of nail art is used. For the same reason, a light green, mint tone becomes a good "partner" for blue.

The best shades for wintertime are silver and gold, both of which look perfect on dark blue nails. It would be a good idea to make small silver snowflakes, or, for example, a thin blue jacket, diluted with golden splashes. In addition, the nails can be alternated, making blue and silver or golden elements in a conceived order.

Blue can also be combined with violet, it is generally appropriate in bright pedicures, options "broken glass", "space". However, these colors should only complement each other, the alternation of nails will not look very attractive, since the shades will merge.

The combination of blue and red or blue and orange is quite rare, since it is difficult to find an elegant pedicure with such a combination.

Blue does not work well with the following colors:

• black;
• Brown;
• pink;
• terracotta;
• dark grey.

Long gone are the days when ladies who bought shoes in bright colors spent days and weeks looking for a matching handbag. The same trends were reflected not only in clothing and accessories, but also in nails. It is not at all necessary to select a varnish of the same color, nevertheless, designers distinguish several rules that should be taken into account.

• When choosing a dark blue pedicure, lighten your fingernails. Completely dark colors will be boring. If you have no desire to do a blue manicure, opt for pastel colors, a classic jacket, and nowhere.
• Having decided to make a catchy pedicure with rhinestones, supplement the manicure with a few small pebbles.
• If your toenails are the work of a nail art master and contain original drawings, try to get a manicure in an approximate theme.
• A two-tone pedicure allows you to get a manicure in any of these colors. However, it is best to choose a dominant shade.
