Colors in unlimited variation.

- Craquelure - can be partly attributed to graphic design, since this technique allows the top coat to "crack" and reveal the lower varnish of a different color.

Animalistic graphics
After the sensational leopard print leggings, the terrible effect they have on others, everyone is wary of animalistic design, but do not be afraid. A manicure with animal drawings looks much more harmless and neat.
Very often you can see how various kinds of graphic images of animals appear on the girls' pens: seals, dogs, birds, butterflies, snakes and crocodiles, elephants and giraffes, in general, the whole kingdom of nature and wild imagination. Sometimes you can see individual parts of these animals, for example: a cat's eye, paws or footprints of a kitten or chick. Such a design in the skillful hands of the master will make the manicure very interesting and advantageous.

Still, there are girls who are wary of animal prints. For such cases, you can use another option: to make a graphic imitation of that very animal using its color or features. For example: a tiger has specific stripes, in which case you can decorate your nails with these stripes themselves in a combination close to the real color of the tiger.
The drawing of a leopard, or rather, its spots, will look very unusual. In this design, you can use not only the color scheme of the leopard itself, but also experiment with different colors, even the most, at first glance, incompatible.

Sometimes the masters, in order not to bother much with drawing each speck, because it is very difficult to symmetrically repeat the pattern on each nail or hand, use special stencils, which greatly simplifies and minimizes the time spent in the salon.
Each of the presented manicure options can be combined and combined with each other, so that the handles look beautiful, individual and unique. A good and attentive master will fulfill any whim one hundred percent, the main thing is to always know when to stop and listen to advice, and then the manicure will always be impeccable and appropriate at any time of the year.
