French manicure has been around for a very long time. Hollywood actresses contributed to this. After all, they changed their image several times a day, changed clothes, did make-up and hair in a different way, and manicure did not go unnoticed. All this took a long time.
But one day they came up with a great alternative. It happened in 1976. It was then that the French manicure appeared. It consisted of nails, the base of which was pink or beige, and the regrown part was covered with white varnish. This design greatly simplified the work, because it fit all the images. Now at the peak of popularity brown jacket. The best ideas are presented in this article.
Stylish manicure - brown jacket (photo)
Followers of all natural choose the classic version. With this design, the main part of the nail is painted beige, mocha, and the tip is white. Manicure looks very natural and elegant, suitable for all images. But if you want to be in trend, you should use a beige base and bright "chocolate" on the tips and make a brown jacket.
To create the second design, two varnishes are used. They should be contrasting so that one can be seen against the background of the other. Bright varnishes go well with bronze, gold and other shades of brown with a metallic sheen. You can also add sparkles, as in the photo above. Opposite colors can be combined, for example, to diversify a beige or brown jacket with black or red. The design will look nice and neat.
Design Matte+Gloss
A very original option when two polishes of the same tone are combined, but one is matte and the second is glossy. This design goes well with a business suit, a romantic dress, and even a sports outfit. The main thing is to draw the border very carefully.
If there is no matte varnish, it does not matter, you can purchase a special top coat or top coat with a matte effect in the store. Moreover, it is permissible to apply it not only to the gel, but also to ordinary varnish. This manicure is also performed in two stages:
- Applying a glossy base. Drying.
- Drawing the border with the top. Drying.
This brown jacket on the nails (photo above) looks very impressive. The design can be applied both to natural plates and to extended ones. But it is important to consider that after all the manipulations, it is not fixed with a fixative. After all, otherwise the matte varnish will become glossy again - which means that the idea will fail.

The main part of the nail can also be decorated with a pattern or ornament. The design looks very stylish, it will perfectly complement any evening look.
Lunar
The difference between this design and the jacket is that the regrown part of the nail is not painted over here. At the base, a hole is drawn in the form of a crescent.
