A lot has been said about a beautiful manicure. Every girl knows that nails covered with a simple colorless varnish have long gone out of fashion. How to be? We draw simple patterns on the nails ourselves or go to the salon for a masterpiece.
Animal prints on the tip of the nail
Various animal prints never go out of fashion. Zebra, leopard, tiger, giraffe, Dalmatian - this is just a minimal list. So, draw a print on the nails:
- First, apply the base under the varnish.
- Then we put the main color (choose for a specific pattern, for a zebra, for example, white).
- Following the dry varnish we apply the drawing itself.
- Now it's the turn of the fixer, which is applied to the dried nails.
You can draw with both varnish and paints. Apply water-based acrylic with a thin brush. For the print of animals such as leopard, giraffe and Dalmatian, it is better to use a special tool - dots. This is a thin needle with a small ball at the end. Dots is most convenient to apply a bitmap. The less paint or varnish on the ball, the smaller the point in volume. Spots can be outlined or left without a contour at all.
Drawinggel nails
You can draw not only on varnish, but also on gel. This applies to extended or covered with biogel or gel nails. Moreover, you can draw with the coating itself. For this, there are both special gel polishes, as well as colored and stained glass gels. For the last two, you need special brushes that are available in any nail art store. So, draw on the nails with gel:
- Sanding the surface of the nail with a buff, removing the shine.
- Apply a pattern with a thin brush (one color).
- Dry the drawing as much as indicated in the instructions for the material.
- Apply the next element of the picture (in a different color).
- Dry again.
- If required, apply a drawing with paints.
- Apply finish gel and dry it.
This applies to those drawings where a clear separation of colors is required. If, according to the idea, their mixing is allowed, then you can apply the drawing immediately and dry it once. Sometimes this gives a completely unexpected effect, which can not always be repeated.
Paint animal house nails
The drawings of animals on the nails look quite impressive. Not a print, but a full-fledged beast. For example, cats. This can be done at home on your own, after practicing on paper. So, draw a cat on the nails:
- Apply a little paint on the prepared surface of the nail.
- Draw a circle for the head of the kitty.
- Then draw the body (it depends on the position of the animal).
- After - tail, paws and ears.
- Drydrawing the cat's eyes, nose, tongue or mouth, mustache.
- The drawing is covered with a protective varnish.
Preparing the nail involves degreasing, filing and applying a base coat. The drawing is applied with thick paint only on a dry surface. It is better to use two brushes - one thin, like hair, for small elements, the other thicker - for the body and large details.
It's even easier to draw a bee:
- Draw a yellow oval on the nails.
- Draw the outline and stripes in black.
- Finishing touches - drawing of wings and sting.
The stages of preparation and completion of the procedure are the same for all drawings: base, base and protection. Good luck with your experiments!
