Stylish design ideas
Today, more and more masters are not limited to any one element of the print. Increasingly, in addition to a real summer insect, floral ornaments, petals, grass and more are used. Sometimes on the nails you get whole pictures and compositions that can convey an important message or show a story.
Using pop art is ideal for bright and unpredictable people. The tone of the nails is always bright - green, yellow, fuchsia. Each nail has its own picture, its own theme. Alternation is allowed, for example, a chamomile is depicted on one nail, a blurred floral print on the second, and a ladybug in flight on the third. If a girl does not want to overload her design, then bright elements can only be added to a couple of nails.
Another type that masters use is natural motives. Real flowers are drawn on the nails: daisies, roses, peonies. In such a manicure, a ladybug will look like an interesting detail, giving grace to the picture.
With abstract manicure, flowers are more like color spots. Here, bugs are drawn separately or in blurry colors.
Girls can get themselves a moon manicure. In this case, the base of the nail is painted over in the form of a bracket, and another bright shade is applied to the body. Ladybugs can be drawn here both in flying and in a static form, spread over different nails.
The design with a volumetric ladybug looks very interesting and unusual. This technique will create the appearance that the girl actually has a cute insect on her nail. To create a volumetric bug, you can use drops, which then must be covered with a protective layer. Experienced craftsmen use acrylic in their work.
Another option to create volume on your nails is to add rhinestones.Professionals are able to depict the entire ladybug with rhinestones. If a girl does a manicure at home, then here it is better to stick rhinestones on the image of an insect. Volumetric bugs, pleasant to the touch, will give the hostess a great mood and create an exclusive image.

Step-by-step technology for performing manicure
You can depict a cute bug on the nails both at the master and at home. The most important thing when creating a manicure is to have patience and perseverance.
Before starting work, you need to think about what the nail design will be, the color scheme, how often ladybugs will appear and where exactly they will be located. And it is also important to decide: whether the insect will be depicted on the entire nail or only on a part of it.
If a girl uses the whole nail under the body of the bug, then for a manicure you will need:
basic varnish application;
varnishes in red, white or black (you can also use non-standard shades;
paint brush or dots;
fixing varnish layer;
tools for manicure.
When starting a manicure, every girl should thoroughly moisturize her hands and correct the shape and length of the nails.
- Initially, the base is applied to the nail.
- After the base, you can proceed to the colored varnish. You need to apply varnish carefully and slowly so that the layer lays down evenly.
- Further, preferably in the center of the nail plate, a thin black line is drawn, but not completely. The top of the nail is painted over completely black - this is the head of the future ladybug.
- The black stripe eventually divides the nail in half. On each half, circles are also drawn in black. You can draw "spots" of an insect with a brush or with a dots. As a last resort, you can use a toothpick. When applying, you need to make sure that the circles are not very large, and the varnish does not spread.
- With the help of white varnish, insect eyes are drawn. Put a black dot in the center of the white circle - the pupil of the ladybug.
- Finally, when the varnish dries up, you need to apply a layer of clear varnish to fix it.
Not all girls like big pictures like that. Someone prefers to use a smaller ladybug as a kind of accent of the entire manicure.
First, you need to tidy up your hands and nails.
- The girl needs to apply a base coat.
- The next step is to apply a color tone (let it be a blue tint).
- After the varnish has dried, you can start painting the ladybug. First of all, medium-sized red ovals are applied - this is the body of the insect.
- Next, carefully using a thin brush, you need to draw the contour of the body, using a black shade. And also draw the head of the insect.
- When the body dries up, you can draw a black line, thereby forming the wings.
- The wings of a ladybug are decorated with black dots.
- 2 thin black lines can be painted on the insect's head - antennae.
- At the end, it is necessary to apply a fixing layer of varnish.
With the help of such a non-standard manicure, every girl can delight both herself and those around her. With more experience, you can already experiment with design, color, as well as the image of the celestial insects themselves.
In addition to the above methods, you can make an uncomplicated, stylish, but at the same time simple jacket with a ladybug. This process is presented in detail in the following video.
