Summer manicure design features

Every fashionista, be it an adult woman or a teenage girl, pays a lot of attention to her appearance. And such an addition to the bow as a stylish manicure will not be lost from sight for her. Given the desire of modern design for seasonality, it is worth dwelling in detail on summer manicure, because it is he who allows you to create the best nail designs in a wide variety of techniques.

Summer manicure is notable for its lightness, it is literally permeated with the colors of summer and a special mood. This is the time when you can afford not only strict images, but also bright and even shocking bows that cannot be hidden by outerwear. However, it is important to understand that the features of the manicure itself will directly depend on the nuances of the summer period. For example, it is necessary to take into account the influence of the sun's rays, which affect the cuticle, drying it out, which spoils the appearance of the hands.

In addition, it is in the summer that nails, thinned from constant treatment, can restore their structure. Therefore, for some time it is better not to paint them at all, allowing not only healthy gloss to be restored, but also saturated with vitamins, which is possible due to healing baths. Rest is necessary for nails and with regular extension. And summer manicure differs from all other types in that, in addition to the main components, they use medicinal varnish for it.

This substance is used as a base layer.In addition to the medicinal varnish, when performing summer manicure, they use a base-conditioner with a vitamin complex. For the cuticle, oils are used, soaking the skin around the nail plates with them. Comprehensive care of the nails allows them to recover faster, which increases their resistance to brittleness.

This season has brought a lot of design innovations, while it is clearly accented with different lengths and saw cut of the nail plates. Now the ideal shape is considered to be oval nails of medium length, they are recognized as the best basis for design in any known manicure technique. More recently, the trend was short or natural length of marigolds. Today, she strives for lengthening, which cannot but please modern women of fashion.

Almond-shaped nails also triumphantly returned, although their shape today is somewhat refined by a more rounded saw cut line. As for sharp and long nails, they are rare today, fashion does not yet seek to return to them. In addition to the fact that they look somewhat aggressive, this form is difficult to combine with the feminine principle, giving off predation, and often depriving a fashionable female bow of its charm.

Straight marigolds today are not so categorical in the saw cut line. It has become a little worn on the sides, due to which it looks more elegant. As for the sharp edge, such a form seems outwardly ineptly made, it is not at all aesthetic, and is capable of simplifying even the most chic design. The natural shape with long nail plates is also appreciated; on such nails you can create different designs without fear that there will not be enough nail area for this.

Summer manicure is distinguished from other seasonal counterparts by several factors. For example, different shades are used for it, which may differ in the degree of saturation and temperature. However, in general, the composition is selected in such a way that it "breathes" in the summer. For example, yellow is associated with the warmth of the sun, the heavenly coolness resembles a summer morning, green evokes memories of delicate greenery.

In addition to the emphasis on certain colors of the palette, the seasonality of summer manicure is also manifested in the theme of the images used for decoration. For example, it can be summer rain drops on flowers, individual petals, delicate buds, a cage, or even peacock feathers. Summer manicure with a stucco pattern looks great, which can demonstrate the beauty of summer no worse than other decor options.

In summer, you can try different color combinations, changing the mood of each look. Conventionally, the color gamut can be divided into several groups:

• natural;
• pastel;
• juicy;
• neon;
• neutral.

Each of them has a lot of tones that can satisfy even the most discerning female preferences. Pastel shades are great for romantic and delicate natures. These colors have the ability to soften bright bows, to balance them.

This range includes mint, caramel, pink, blue, turquoise, pistachio, peach colors. Almost all pastel shades are combined with white contrast, which is good for softening the overall look of summer manicure and balancing it with existing wardrobe clothes. Among the rich list of tones, the ultra-fashionable combination is the combination of pink and blue, which can be embodied in any manicure technique.

Flesh tones include pleasant beige and nude beige. The palette also includes natural undertones, which are now used as camouflage for some techniques.They work well with pastel contrasts to create delicate designs. Also, flesh tones look harmonious in combinations with neutral colors, which include white, black and gray. By themselves, these colors do not have an emotional load, but they acquire the one that a color pigment has.

Rich or rich colors allow you to create bright solutions that you can afford on vacation, for shopping or a trip to the sea. Neon tones allow for some creativity, which is why this group is especially loved by teenage girls. Considering the fact that it is possible to create a design that glows in the dark, it is not difficult to understand young fashionistas: at this age, everything that is unusual seems to be the best for them.

As for the trendy combinations of shades for summer manicure, several of the most interesting options can be noted. Today it is fashionable to combine:

• white with yellowish and peach;
• pink with lilac and white;
• neon green with turquoise;
• raspberry pink with emerald green;

• heavenly with pink and milky;
• lemon with black and white;
• mint with white and silver;
• neon crimson with lilac;

• orange with black and lemon;
• blue with light coral;
• sandy with turquoise, white and gold;
• emerald green with black and gold.

Speaking of color, one cannot fail to mention the dark color scheme, because dark contrasts make light pigments more expressive and vibrant. In addition, often dark colors allow you to combine a manicure with accessories for a woman's outfit. For example, even if the color of the main background is not related to the clothes worn, then due to the black or white pattern and a similar tone of the bag, the manicure will be more organically inscribed into the bow.

Summer manicure can be very diverse. To understand this, you need to turn to the best techniques of the new season, briefly defining their main nuances.

Classic manicure is the coloring of nails in one color over the entire area of ​​the nail plates. Today this technique is used in almost every design. At the very least, it is used for accents of manicure, preparing the basis for further decoration. On the basis of the classical method, such manicure options as powdery and rubbing are performed. The classic is notable for the fact that it allows you to reveal the beauty of the lacquer coatings used. For example, it gives status to a design through textured accents.

French manicure can be called one of the best summer nail designs. In the traditional version, it is especially lightweight and radiates the health of the nail plates. To achieve a similar effect, the technique of negative space is used. It consists in not painting over the base with pigmented varnish.

The inverted jacket has also changed somewhat today, often a "smile" is like the outline of a nail. As with the classical technology, it can have different thicknesses, be arranged symmetrically and asymmetrically. Such a design today is performed not only for everyday bows. If, for example, you decorate the cuticle area with gold or a rhinestone bow, even a laconic design can decorate a summer evening dress. In contrast to the traditional, the inverted jacket is more laconic today, due to this it goes well with different clothes from the wardrobe.

A manicure with holes is often mistakenly called a reverse jacket. In fact, there are some similarities: both methods emphasize the cuticle area, which is considered the trend of the season today.However, if in a jacket it is more of a stroke of the lower edge, then in the lunar design the shape of the hole itself differs. In the traditional version, it is semicircular, colored or not, can be accentuated by a secondary bow.

In addition, it can be sharp triangular or even inverted, resembling a crescent. This design in the technique of negative space allows you to create the illusion of a grown nail, which is especially beneficial for refining short marigolds.

A manicure with an ombre effect is distinguished by the use of several shades of coatings, which are both contrasting and related, differing in the degree of saturation or temperature of the tones. This manicure is especially good for summer bows, as it allows you to combine the best summer colors. In addition, it is often the basic background for further decoration of accent nails. Such beauty is created in different ways: from using a manicure sponge to working with a fan brush.

Each master chooses for himself more convenient devices that will make the transition smooth, excluding the porosity of the texture.

Manicure with the illusion of broken glass on nails is one of the ultra-trendy today. It is good for different design colors and looks on any chosen color of pigmented varnish. On dark and saturated juicy, it is brighter, gives light tones an original shine and really reminds them of glass shards. This effect is created due to the manicure film, which today, in addition to the traditional version, can be holographic, and even with a pattern.

This technique is actively used today for combined manicure. It is decorated with accent nails, and has already been modified, which is why, on its basis, one of the best designs for a summer appearance can be made. The technique is based on the creation of a translucent base of the background, provided for further decoration. An indispensable element of such a design is the contouring of the nail in the tone of the main color with which the base was made. Due to this, the effect of the nylon texture of the coating is created. In the future, they paint on it or partially decorate it with varnishes with a contrasting texture.

The use of manicure powder allows you to radically change the texture of the coating. And if previously the entire area of ​​the nail plate was sprinkled with such a powder, today it is customary to create various patterns with powder. Someone calls it granulated sugar, others - flock powder. In fact, there are many varieties of this material, so the texture of the powder will be different for each. For example, flock is more suitable for decorating the entire area of ​​an accent nail, because its fraction will not allow you to create a clear pattern.

Granulated sugar is also different, with or without glitter, and the particle size is also different. It is more appropriate for three-dimensional drawings.

This technique is based on the classic manicure. You can create with it not only a bright and juicy summer design, but also everyday design options, since the powder changes the texture of the nail depending on the time and intensity of rubbing. There are many options for various rub-in effects that are suitable for summer, so you can decorate your nails with both pearl dust and under the shell of the May beetle. An interesting rub in is a powder with a mirror and holographic effect, it can be used as an auxiliary substance to create the desired background for decoration.

The use of foil tape (one of the varieties of manicure foil) is relevant to this day. Today it allows you to create the best geometric designs, accentuate the "smile" area.Considering the variety of all possible shapes of stripes, you can vary the design, add something new and unique to it, effectively and vividly emphasize the contrasts of two or three tones.

The recently appeared tape foil has significantly expanded the possibilities of summer nail design. It is somewhat more difficult to glue it than ordinary stickers, since special glue is needed to fix it. Foil is notable for its rich assortment of floral and plant designs, various ethnic ornaments, geometric patterns and animal prints. This type of design is carried out on the basis of a classic manicure, waiting for the applied glue to dry so that the print can be glued to the accent nail.

A variety of laces stand out especially in this line, with the help of which you can make not only a summer evening, but also a wedding manicure.

This technique is also based on the classic manicure. After the nails are stained with pigment and dried, pieces of newspaper with different letters or even hieroglyphs are used. After printing, for which ordinary alcohol is used, the design is finished with a finish and dried. Newspaper design looks creative and effective, today it is one of the best ways to decorate nails, which will diversify the female summer look.

Having found out the most interesting and popular techniques for summer manicure, one cannot fail to note the nuances of the decor, because it is he who is able to both "stretch" even the most boring design and ruin a chic design idea. It is important to understand that summer nail design should be light. This means that you will have to limit the amount of the desired decor, as well as carefully consider its appropriateness in a particular design. Let's outline the seven rules of an ideal manicure by choosing different decor elements.

• The first and foremost rule of summer manicure is: the expressiveness of accents is determined by their number. To make the manicure look beautiful, it is worth excluding everything that can create the effect of variegation. The number of accent fingers is limited to three to four out of ten.

• Rhinestones must be glued to the drawings correctly. If there is no room for them, you should not sculpt sparkling decor. It is necessary to think over its relevance: for example, a crown on a bird's head looks ugly, like a spider covered with crystals.

• Kamifubuki are selected using no more than four tones of multi-colored confetti. Moreover, they are correlated with the tone of the main background, and are not glued all over the accent nail. Such decor looks better if it is located not on the entire area of ​​the nail, but on a small part of it. For example, it could be a vertical stripe in the center of an accent nail.

• Glitter or sparkles look more expressive on nails when the varnish is sufficiently saturated with glitter. That is why it is sometimes better to place an accent with a gel for gold or silver, rather than trying to paint over a part of the nail several times in an effort to get an acceptable result.

• In order for the design to have harmonious transitions between the two contrasts of varnish used, it is worth leaving two nails for decoration. At the same time, on one you can perform a different print, and at the expense of the second, you can combine the design with the rest of the background of the nails. In this case, the drawings on the two nails should not clone each other.

• When choosing a design, it is important to take into account the woman's age and style. What's good for girls doesn't always work well in their 50s.If youth is quite compatible with creativity, then in middle age it rarely corresponds to nobility and sophistication.

• When choosing a design for the summer, it is important to build on the available clothes. The colors of the manicure should not completely echo the tones of the wardrobe, however, related paints will come in handy. To make the bow stylish and harmonious, you can choose the color of the varnish to match the bag or even shoes.

There are unspoken moments, one look at which betrays outdated nail design. To avoid this, you should know what is fashionable now. For example, in a trend:

• using stamping as an option for decorating nails in stained glass technique;
• pearl dust, which looks more interesting than mirror powder;
• creating a compositional pattern on two or even three nails;
• accentuation of the cuticle area on one hand nail;
• masking with foil strips the joint of two varnishes on one nail;
• the use of glow-in-the-dark pigmented varnishes;
• using stickers as an alternative to hand-painted.

Logomania is considered a trendy design. It is used today not only by adolescents, such a design increases the status of manicure, and besides, it is new and original. Nail art professionals can paint a logo on an accent nail, using a thin brush to draw the elements or the coveted letters of famous fashion houses. This design looks expensive, it significantly increases the status of a women's bow.

The mega-popular theme of geometric design. And if earlier it was mainly painted over triangles on the nails, then today linear drawing is welcome. It can even be ordinary vertical lines with points located on them.

As for fashionable designs for summer manicure, among the usual floral motifs, gothic and marshmallows stand out. Both are good for youth subcultures, they allow you to feel your image, which is especially important for teenagers. When it comes to cute designs, it is especially important here that the design looks professional, since inept drawing will turn a stylish manicure into a child's attempt to paint their nails on their own.

The finished result does not always look beautiful in one way or another. To avoid this, several factors need to be considered.

1. A bright manicure is relevant if the outfit is made in soothing colors, but bags or shoes match the color of the varnish.
2. Manicure in gentle colors is good for strict and business bows, but if pastel colors are suitable for romantic dresses, then bodily ones are more relevant for office style.
3. For girls aged 10-12, it is better to choose simpler designs, relying on the length of the nails and the tone of the clothes. The brighter it is, the lighter the tone of the base varnish is needed. The abundance of brightness can ruin the image of a young fashionista. At the same time, creative patterns are appropriate for teenage looks.
4. If a bright design is required, you should not repeat its idea in clothes, as this will cause it to be lost. A play of contrast is needed, so it's easier to convey the idea of ​​manicure and style.
5. So that long nails do not look vulgar, they are painted in light colors to a strict skirt and blouse, while designs with rhinestones are unacceptable. If these are stilettos, there is no need to complicate the design with rhinestones and sequins.

If the color of the clothes is monochromatic (does not have a print), then this is the best option for a summer gradient. A multi-colored design will be especially harmonious if at least one of its shades is related to clothes, for example, a summer blouse or top, a sundress or a dress.For an office or office-business style, a monochromatic classic is good, while it can be made in neutral colors.

As for clothes, then when choosing a stylish and beautiful design for a specific image, you can take into account the cut. For example, non-trivial solutions sometimes allow you to combine the incongruous, and often it looks quite harmonious. The same long stilettos sometimes look quite harmoniously with a knitted blouse and tight-fitting trousers.
