Autumn manicure: design features and novelties of the season

Autumn is one of the controversial seasons of the year. For some, it is associated with melancholy, for others it is time to reboot, and for some, the arrival of autumn adds a depressive state. In spite of everything, she does not leave any woman indifferent, so let's delight ourselves with an autumn manicure, because the trend of seasonality of design today is one of the leading directions of nail art.

Autumn manicure is one of the four seasonal design trends in the modern nail sphere. It is executed based on several important points:

• choosing the right shades of pigmented gel polishes;
• taking into account the optimal shape of the nail plates;
• choosing the best design techniques;
• choosing the right decorative elements;
• considering items of clothing for women’s wardrobe;
• matching the design with the style and the specific occasion.

Each of the points has its own nuances. It's no secret that nothing conveys the right mood more than pleasant tones of the color palette. They can indicate not only belonging to autumn, but even indicate its month. For example, the early autumn season can be conveyed with bright tones of the palette, for cold and rainy ones, choose more neutral tones.

The shape of nails today depends on the shape and length of the fingers of a particular woman. In this regard, there are no strict restrictions, although the only one, perhaps, can be called excessive length. The fact is that such nails are strongly tapering towards the upper edge, and therefore complicate the decoration and distort the drawings. In addition, such nails do not look particularly feminine, and fashion strives for naturalness and naturalness.

If you want your nails to appear visually longer, it is better to make them oval.For short marigolds, it is worth choosing solutions that exclude transverse stripes and a contrasting stroke of the upper edge, since this shortens the nail plates. The best length, according to fashion trends, is considered to be moderate or medium today. In this case, the edge of the nail can be straight, rounded or almond-shaped.

Regarding the wardrobe, you need to choose a design so that it does not outweigh the female image and does not shout about yourself, persistently attracting the attention of others. For example, colder and neutral tones look great in casual looks. Bright colors will be more appropriate when the color of the clothes is calmer. At the same time, the use of related tones of the same color is harmonious, but it is impossible to complement a bright outfit with a bright manicure color.

Style is one of the key points when choosing an autumn nail design. It is important that the design matches the chosen direction in clothing, as well as the inner world. For example, for office and office-business it is better to limit yourself to the tones of the corporal and brown group. So the manicure can be combined with different clothes, and it will not stand out against the background of a strict dress code. As for the purpose of the design, everything will depend on the type of materials used. For example, if a manicure is done with ordinary varnishes, you can even afford pretentious decorations, going to a party or, say, on a weekend. When you cover your nails with hybrid varnishes, you have to deny yourself something, because you will have to wear such a design for at least two to four weeks in a row.

Fall manicure can be done using traditional fall colors. These include the main ones:

• red;
• yellow;
• brown;
• burgundy;
• orange;
• gold.

In addition, you can include more interesting tones in the range, which will allow you to even bring the atmosphere of autumn into the design. These are combinations of paints with each other, and their combinations with cold and gray paints. Of the best shades that contribute to the transmission of the desired mood, one can single out:

• orange brown;
• yellow-orange;
• marsh green mixed with yellow;

And in a month, combinations of gray with brown and blue, pistachio with marsh and gray-blue will also be in demand. With the sinking of nature, you can decorate your nails with designs in black and blue, mix cold blue with gray and silver. As for color combinations, combinations are fashionable this season:

Autumn nail design can be not only traditional or classic, but also made on the basis of different manicure techniques. In addition, fashion offers several solutions, thanks to which the design will look stylish and effective in different looks of a woman. For example, this season:

Autumn manicure looks great in different techniques. In this case, the base can be monochromatic or more complex. In each case, the design is selected in advance, combining tones and taking into account their compatibility with each other. For example, a classic manicure, in which nails are painted completely over the entire area of ​​the nail plate, would be a safe bet.

Depending on the chosen decor, it will look quite impressive against such a background. It can be used as a background for artistic painting, stained glass technique. It is suitable for fixing sliders, decorating the base with dotted circles, or even kamifubuki.

For example, decorating a monochromatic base with rubbing under the shell of the May beetle or even holography will be harmonious.
