Another trend is art painting, which is applied using several decorative varnishes and thin brushes. Typically, manicurists paint a variety of dots, color washes, lines and original brush strokes that combine into a single picture and become stylish patterns. Animalistic prints look very original, the theme of our smaller brothers this season has become one of the most popular among teenagers and young girls. They decorate their marigolds with funny faces of tigers and pandas, the silhouettes of kittens and butterflies keep up with them.
And older women often ask to decorate their marigolds with decors that imitate animal fur. In this case, the decor is performed both on one nail and on all at once. The French theme looks very stylish, when the upper part of the nail plate is decorated with an ornament depicting a zebra or a leopard. Such a print can adorn absolutely any nail art technique.

More complex design ideas
If you have free time, you can create more original and complex decors on your nails. This season, the so-called newspaper manicure is in vogue, which, despite its novelty, has already won the hearts of millions of women around the world. This is a very effective coating, in which the image printed in a magazine or newspaper is transferred to the nail plates.
For the first time, the idea of using printed text on nail plates came to the mind of a little-known French beautician, a woman who for many years dreamed of creating a fashion trend in the field of beauty. Her dream came true - as soon as it appeared, newspaper decor became one of the most popular among women around the world.

Gradient has been quite popular for many years. This technique involves a smooth transition from one color to another, while the color gamut can consist of several shades of the same tone, or of contrasting ones. Ombre is applied vertically or horizontally across the nail plate. Floral prints are quite complex and laborious. To create such paintings, you can spend from 1 to 2.5 hours, the work time depends on the picture and the experience of the master.
In any case, it is rather difficult to make such drawings on your own, especially if the picture needs to be depicted on the right hand.

Preparatory stage
After you prepare all the necessary materials, you can start preparing your hands and nails for applying decorative varnish. The work is carried out in the following sequence, we will consider all the manipulations step by step.
- Remove the remnants of the old coating. To do this, wipe off the old coating with a cotton pad or a lint-free cloth soaked in an old varnish remover. This stage should not be omitted even if there is no varnish on the plate - the liquid degreases the nail, due to which the coating lays down better and looks brighter and more saturated.
- Shape your nails as desired. To do this, first cut the nails with nippers or special scissors, and then file them.Usually in order to give the nail the desired shape? use files with a degree of abrasiveness of 180-210 grit. Many people move the nail file from right to left - this is fundamentally the wrong approach, since the nails begin to delaminate. To avoid such an unpleasant result, it is worth directing the file in one direction, while the movements should be soft and smooth.
And one more tip - do not overdo it, if you file the nail plates on the sides too intensively, then this leads to their ingrowth in the future.

- Seal the edges. Use a buff or a low-abrasive file to process the edges of the nails, as sealing is another measure that prevents the delamination of the marigolds in the future. After that, you need to walk several times over the nail plate to polish the surface. Here again the advice should be repeated - do not overdo it, you should not achieve a mirror surface, because if the surface of the plate is perfectly flat, then it will not be so easy for the varnish to cling to it.
- Remove overgrown cuticles. Keratinized lateral ridges, as well as cuticles, are cut or pushed back with an orange stick, while special oils must be applied to prevent the rapid growth of the epithelium around the nail plate.
- Cut off the burrs. If there are burrs on the fingers, then they need to be cut off with scissors or removed with nippers, this should be done as carefully as possible, since in the places where the burrs originate, abscesses and small inflammations often occur.

Application technique
If you have prepared marigolds, then applying a decorative coating will not be difficult for you, especially if you use several recommendations of nail service specialists. Let's consider this process in stages.
- To begin with, you should apply a base - many neglect this stage, however, do not lose sight of the fact that it is the base coat that protects the nail plates from the aggressive ingredients of the varnish. Usually, any transparent varnish or special compositions from the strengthening series are used for this.
- After that, a colored varnish is applied. They begin to paint from the center of the marigold, slightly stepping back from the edge of the cuticle, and bring the line to the very end of the nail in one quick motion. After that, a couple of strokes are made around the edges so that the plate is painted over as evenly as possible.
- It is recommended to apply the varnish in several layers - this is necessary in order to hide all the defects of the first coating and get a real juicy shade.
- Keep in mind that the second coat should only be applied after the first is completely dry.

- To fix the coating, a top is applied - this is a finishing varnish, which improves the glossiness of the coating and prolongs the life of the decor.
- Experienced masters have revealed several tricks that allow you to make a manicure at home simple and effective:
- To keep the coating as light as possible, wash your hands with soap and water before applying.
- Give preference to the highest quality varnishes, while it is very important to make sure that the shelf life of such a coating has not expired.
- Before opening a bottle of decorative varnish, shake it and hold it in warm palms.
- It is best to use a varnish with a liquid consistency, if the composition has thickened, then dilute it with acetone or a decorative coating remover.
