To replace extended nails in the nail industry, natural nails covered with gel polish have rapidly become fashionable. So, pink shellac generally became a hit of the season. And it holds its position for several years in a row. And blondes turn out to be greedy for this color not only contrary to established stereotypes. And how many interesting designs you can create, beyond words.
Easy and quick hand-painted version
It doesn't take much to complete: rhinestones, a thin brush, an ultraviolet lamp, a base and top for gel polish, colored shellac. Nails (pink shade can be anything: bright, pale, light, saturated) are covered with shellac, the design, so as not to look gaudy and vulgar, can be done only on one nail. The flower will be drawn by hand, so if the gel polish is not too thick, then acrylic paints can also be used. They have a denser structure if they are properly diluted with water, so they will be easier to lay down on the nails. After standard preparation (disinfectionhands, pushing back the cuticle, removing pterygium) a foundation is applied. As thin as possible, so that the material does not get on the skin around the nails. The base will dry in the rays of the lamp for no more than a minute. As a rule, this is the ring finger.
Step by step
When the base is dry, apply pink shellac on top of it on all nails except one. The first layer is as thin as possible, even if the material is streaky and translucent. When the colored substrate dries in an ultraviolet lamp, the procedure is repeated again if necessary. And so on until the shade is sufficiently saturated (for those who like it brighter). Gel polish of a different color is applied to the selected finger. For example, it can be a shiny shellac. It will dry as much as any other color - 1-2 minutes in the rays of a UV lamp.
When the procedure is completed, with the help of a thin brush, pink petals are drawn on top of the sparkles. If the drawing is made with acrylic paint, then you need to wait for it to dry. If gel polish, then dry in a UV lamp. So that the rhinestones, which play the role of cores, do not fly out at the first hand wash, you need to drip a little shellac. It is dried for several seconds in a lamp, and then rhinestones are placed in this place. You can dry off with them. The top is applied at the final stage. It is better to choose without a sticky layer so that you do not have to remove it later. Pink shellac manicure with hand-painted simple is ready!
Design on two nails
Actually, the initial stage is no different from the previous version. Only now the design will be performed on two fingers at once. Young girls often choose bright pink shellac for manicure. At least because they can afford it due to their age. In the variant, as in the photo, shellac with sparkles is applied to the middle finger, and a simple painting is done on the ring finger. White zigzags are drawn with a thin brush by hand when the main pink color is already thoroughly dried. Otherwise, the shades will mix, the intended pattern will no longer work. The whole design is fixed after drying with a top, which also polymerizes in the rays of a UV lamp.
Animal print hit
The easiest way is to draw a zebra pattern yourself, as in the photo above. To complete you will need:
- pink shellac;
- white and black gel polish;
- base and top;
- thin brush;
- UV lamp (better than LED, which polymerizes the material faster);
- gel polish with dense shimmer (sequins).
After the standard preparation and the initial stage, all but two nails are covered with the base color. In this case, it is pink gel polish. Shellac with a shimmer is applied to the middle finger, and white is applied to the ring finger. It is better to dry them all at the same time so that the material does not boil in the lamp. Black stripes are drawn over the white dried tone with a thin brush. As a result, they should form a zebra print, you don’t have to be especially fussy for this. The pattern will dry in the lamp in just a few seconds. After that, the entire design is covered with a top. Unusualmanicure option is ready.
Elegant tricolor design
The combination of pink shellac with white and black flowers looks especially good. Therefore, the three-color design has already become almost a classic in nail art. It is necessary to determine in advance which nails will be covered with what color. So, most often the ring finger is distinguished with white, the index and thumb are pink, the middle and little fingers are black. But options can be very different. Moreover, on the left and right hand, the alternation of colors does not match. And this is the norm today. When the gel polish dries, a pattern is applied to it using a dots (a brush with a ball at the end) and a thin brush. Most often black acrylic paint. And not on all nails, but only on pink and white ones. The pattern can be anything. As an idea, you can use what is in the photo. To make the design even more unusual, it is covered not with a glossy top, but with a matte one. Pink shellac on nails in this design looks more spectacular and stylish.
