Bright orange manicure: possible combinations and design options

Many women mistakenly believe that orange manicure is very extravagant and is more suitable for the summer season and informal meetings. Taking into account the peculiarities of color and the variety of designs, you can easily combine such a manicure both in the winter season and in office walls.

While orange is quite bright and noticeable, it is suitable for all occasions. You just need to choose the right shade.

1. Light shades orange, for example, apricot or caramel, perfect for older women or girls who do not like extravagance. Also, these shades of manicure will be appropriate for business and friendly meetings.

2. Bright shades (orange, coral, carrot) girls can afford for an informal setting. Such a bright orange manicure attracts attention, so it is not suitable for important negotiations.

3. Discreet shades, such as terracotta, light brown are a classic base and look restrained and laconic on nails. This manicure will be appropriate at work, and at home, and at a gala reception.

In addition to the basic shades of orange, compatibility with other colors should also be taken into account when creating a manicure. So, white will dilute the bright shade and add elegance and grace to the manicure. Black color, on the contrary, will make you pay even more attention to the manicure of nails, and will highlight the bright color of the varnish. The beige color, like the white palette, will add austerity and formality to the design.

Red shades are permissible in combination with orange only in the form of separate parts. Otherwise, the manicure will turn out to be too extravagant and pretentious.Brown goes well with both vibrant and muted orange palettes.

Orange is a very versatile color, so you can easily experiment with it and create a unique design.

The most common manicure options with this shade are as follows.

• Monochrome or with the addition of a different palette. In this case, the texture of the varnish can be either glossy or matte. This also includes various color rubbing, highlighting holes and a classic jacket. This combination will allow you to create an optimal manicure for both the office and everyday life.

• With drawing. As a decor, special stickers, stencils with images of birds, animals, flowers, geometric shapes and lines are used. In addition, the technique of drawing with special paints is used. They are mixed with a base or a chosen shade of gel polish and the pattern is manually applied to the background. In this case, the contrast principle should be followed. If the background is orange, then the pattern should be either brighter or lighter. So, orange is harmoniously combined with blue, blue and white.

• With sequins and rhinestones. This type of manicure has not gone out of fashion for a long time. Only in modern design it is customary to select one or two nails in this way. In this case, the nails are completely decorated with sparkles or rhinestones, while the rest of the nails are best painted in neutral or calm shades of orange. You can also decorate individual design elements with sparkles, for example, a vertical or horizontal strip, or highlight an ornament. You can decorate the holes of the nail with rhinestones - lay out an unusual ornament or pattern, or you can simply decorate a strip on the nail.

• Ombre, or, as it is also called, a gradient. This manicure is a smooth transition from one shade to another. Most often, this type is used in the summer season, when bright colors and patterns are appropriate. The rest of the time, the gradient can be used to select one or more nails.

Such a bright and sunny shade can be used on different lengths of nails, considering only their specifics. So, on short nails it is better to use an ornament and drawings that "visually" lengthen them. These can be vertical stripes, graphic patterns or a pattern on the entire nail plate. It is for such nails that you should use the contrast of colors and try to combine several types of manicure. But it is also not worth getting carried away with many species on one hand, otherwise complete disharmony may result.

The following patterns are most in demand for such a shade: orange slices, palm trees, flowers, butterflies. Short nails will be able to decorate prints in a nautical theme, as well as a combination of contrasting colors and the creation of an unusual jacket.

The good thing about long nails is that you can apply any pattern on them. So, for summer holidays, palm trees, fruits and flowers will be relevant with orange.
