White shellac in nail design

Manicure in light colors is always very popular. Among the variety of shades, design options made with white shellac are of great love. What is this connected with, and what design can be done using this tone, let's figure it out.

Every manicurist, and those who love to paint their nails at home, must have white shellac in their piggy bank. This is due to the fact that this tone has a number of advantages:

• white manicure can be arranged both for every day and for a celebration;
• it always looks fresh and original on the nails;
• perfectly serves as a substrate for most design options;
• can be applied to both short and long nails;
• relevant in winter, spring, summer and winter.

But white shellac also has a number of disadvantages.

• You need to buy only quality products with good pigment. Gel polishes of this shade often "strip", it is rather difficult to lay them evenly on the nail.
• The manicure should be done very carefully, as white emphasizes all the flaws.
• White shellac often has complementary hues and it is difficult to find a pure color.
• It is necessary to select a high-quality top coating. Otherwise, while wearing, the manicure may turn yellow.

White shellac requires special treatment. Therefore, to make your manicure look perfect, you need to follow a few simple steps.

It is advisable to use hardware technique here. Push the cuticle back with a pusher. With a "candle" cutter it is good to remove the pterygium, to clean all the grooves under the skin.Cut off the cuticle with the "ball" attachment. Sand the surface of the leather. Give nails the same shape and length.

Using a file or a buff with an abrasiveness of 220-240 grit, remove the glossy coating from the nails. Remove keratinized particles with a dry brush. Treat the nail plate with a degreaser. Apply primer.

It is very important here to properly level the surface of the nail. It is better to use a thick rubber base. Apply a thin layer first. Dry it in a lamp. Then tuck the base tighter to line up all the pits and grooves on the nail. Dry again.

With a brush for distributing gel polish, place a drop in the lower third of the nail and distribute it first down to the cuticle, and then up to the free edge. Paint well the area around the side ridges. The layer should not be very thick, otherwise the shellac may curl on the nails. If streaks have formed, you can try to remove them with a thin brush. Dry in a lamp. Usually white gel polish is applied in two or more layers. The procedure must be repeated until the color of the nail is perfect without bald spots and other imperfections.

For white shellac, you can choose both matte and glossy top. It is applied in one layer, do not forget to seal the ends of the marigolds. After application, you should turn your finger with your fingernail down for a few seconds so that the top coat evens out as best as possible and gets the perfect highlight. Then we dry the finish in the lamp.

There are many options for manicure design, made using white shellac.

Here are some pretty original ideas.

French manicure is a way of decorating marigolds for any occasion in life. An ordinary jacket with a white "smile" is perfect for a business woman.

Stiletto nails painted with white shellac are a great option for a wedding manicure.

Amber on nails is another fairly popular type of design made with white shellac. This type of coverage has a specific name - Baby Boomer. Here, the transition from a camouflage coating to the white tips of the marigolds, in contrast to the standard jacket, where the smile is clearly traced, is blurred.

The classic combination of black and white is also often found in manicure. Here you can find not only geometry, flowers, but also whole paintings in black and white colors.

The red and white design is also quite often used by craftsmen for decorating marigolds. This is because lighter shades soothe the passion of red.

Pink and white is a combination for young fashionistas, as this design is full of tenderness and freshness. A sakura branch on a white substrate will perfectly cheer you up in spring. Nails with white and pink polka dots - why not, if you are under twenty. Lunar manicure for those who are older.
