To decorate nails in manicure, all kinds of designs are used: sparkles, rhinestones, stickers, rubs and much more. There are even rubber flowers and leaves. The task of the nail stylist is to choose such a combination so that the whole ensemble looks like a work of art.
Many people will say that using a combination of glitter and flowers for nail art is too much. Indeed, quite recently, stage workers or owners of extreme length could afford such nails.
But 2018 brought with it the fashion for shiny elements in manicure - lacquer with a shimmer, gold inserts and kamifubuki (confetti). And it turned out that in addition to abstract designs, sequins go well with floral prints, acrylic and rubber ready-made elements - petals and leaves.
Glitter design for every day
Glitter nail design is a responsible business. They can be distracting or cause a non-work mood. But if you do not cover all the nails with glitter, but focus on only one nail, no one will doubt the seriousness of a business woman.
Darkblue color has long been entrenched as office and business. But all nails made in such a range would become boring. White goes well with this color. The ring nail is suitable for being outlined in white. A thin strip in the middle of the nail will visually lengthen it and make it more elegant.
Interesting varnish
What if you need a bright manicure, and the nails have a solid color coating? Glitter polish will help fix the situation with a boring nail design. There are many companies that produce such varnishes, but not all of them can boast of excellent quality.
Glitter is often so small that it sinks to the bottom of the bottle and is difficult to pick up. The sequins themselves may be too big or too dark. When applied to the nails, they appear to be covered in crumbs. This gives the impression of sloppiness.
Choosing such a varnish, it is useless to consider it in a bottle. You should apply two layers to the palette, then it will show itself. A good varnish has a high hiding power, that is, it covers the background on which it was applied. This is important because they use such varnishes as a gradient on a solid background. It turns out a beautiful transition.
Fancy French
French with a brilliant smile is outdated. But an unusual design, similar to a partial jacket, is in fashion. This is a tall white smile that reaches to the middle of the nail or even a little higher. Pink and white meet in a straight line, which is distinguished by a thin, shiny line. On the adjacent nail, a side jacket is made, separating it with a vertical shiny strip. Nail onthe little finger can be completely covered with shiny varnish, and the index finger can be left with a pink tone.
Glitter french nail design is suitable for both office work and formal occasions.
Kamifubuki
The design with kamifubuki looks very impressive. These colored foil confetti come in a variety of sizes and shapes. They shine from different angles and create a 3D effect. To create a festive manicure, it is enough to apply kamifubuki on two nails completely, and decorate the rest of the nails with them only in the cuticle area.
Glitter nail design will become even more interesting if you use them that match in shade to the main background. If burgundy is chosen as the main tone, a few confetti can be put in dark red, two or three scarlet, a few small black and three or four small gold. How to fix them on the nails is shown in the video.
