A neat, stylish manicure is an integral part of a complete female look. If earlier it was enough just to paint your nails with red polish - for special occasions, a pale pink tint - for everyday life, now this is no longer enough. Moreover, there are no restrictions in manicure now, and you can use not only any colors for it, but also completely different materials: from sequins to pieces of fur. Of course, not every one of them is designed for life outside the catwalk. One of the trends in nail design, which has been in the lead for several years now, is a silver manicure.
Thinking about the beauty of nails
Perfect manicure of silver shades with various color combinations, techniques with its brilliance and gloss attracts the eye. It can be glossy and mirror, with sparkles or sequins, in combination with delicate pink or strict black, cover the nails in whole or in part, be the basis for fashionable geometric patterns. The choice is so huge that every girl will find her own. After all, a manicure should fit the image, the style of clothing and lifestyle.
Silver manicure is always solemn and unusual, while it goes well with almost any color of clothing. It can be in the form of a uniform coating, large sequins, lines, patterns, stripes. A huge selection of designs is achieved through various materials and application techniques. In the spring or summer sun, such a manicure will shine and shimmer, not leaving its owner unnoticed. You can create a manicure with silver varnish, shiny and shimmering in the sun, both by yourself and by a nail design master.
French, or moon manicure in silver tones
French manicure is a real classic. But now it is not only a combination of natural pink or beige and white stripes on the edge of the nail. Now the base can be any color, for example, black, blue, lilac, and the strip is silver. It can be done with metallic varnish, sparkles or special foil. Any design begins with cleaning and processing of the nail plate and cuticles. Without this, the manicure will look sloppy.
After you have prepared your nails, coat them with base. Moreover, even if the manicure is performed with ordinary varnish, and not with gel, it is better not to skip this step. The base will strengthen the nail plate, allow the varnish to lie more evenly and last longer. After the base is dry, apply silver polish or a strip of foil to the tip of the nail.
Another trendy option is a moon manicure, when such a strip is glued or drawn at the base of the nail. And in order for the lines to be clear and neat, glue special strips on the nail plate, apply varnish under silver, with sparkles or glitter, after they dry, remove it. The line will be clear. Now it remains to fix everything with a top coat.
Total Silver
Stylish, catchy and unusual looks manicure shiny, glossy, like a mirror. You can make it in two ways:
- using a special heat-resistant film;
- using nail foil.
In the first case, a pre-heated film is applied to a pre-treated, polished, fat-free nail. You can buy it at any store that sells nail design attributes. Straighten so that the coating is smooth, remove the excess with nail scissors. Such a silver manicure, in addition to its excellent appearance, is good for two more reasons:
- it is very simple, easy to do by yourself;
- lasts two to three weeks.
The technique for performing manicure with foil is similar. The only thing is that it does not need to be heated. The base is first applied to the nail, then the foil, it needs to be smoothed out properly. It turns out a manicure that is shiny and bright, shimmering under daylight or artificial light. To increase the wear time, you can cover the nails with a top, but then the brightness of the silver will fade somewhat.
Monochrome
The combination of black and white is another classic that is relevant not only in clothes, but also in nail design too. To soften the sharpness of the transition of colors a little, choose a black and silver manicure: an elegant, but no less restrained and flawless combination. At the same time, black varnish can be both glossy and matte.
You cancombine different coating textures in one design, thereby making it more original. For example, on one hand, paint two nails with matte varnish, the rest with glossy. Drawings can be very diverse: actual geometric shapes, abstraction, french or lunar. In a combination of gray and black, a gradient is well obtained: a smooth transition from one tone to another. On a gray background, you can draw a black feather, decorating it with rhinestones.
Tenderness and romance
For lovers of airy attire and gentle natures, a pink-silver manicure is suitable. The combination of natural powdery shades on the nails with light gray tones will appeal to young, romantic girls. Here you can use silver varnish, sequins, rhinestones, glitter (special glitter powder).
Finish your nails with a pastel pink color as a base, and decorate the edge of the nail or hole with a shiny polish, depending on whether you like a jacket or moonlight. Alternate pink nails with shiny ones. You can also add white. The combination of matte shades of gray and pink looks beautiful. You can decorate with rhinestones, but you should not overdo it.
Disco Manicure
Do you want to look bright and always be in the spotlight? Then for you, iridescent, like a disco ball, manicure with silver sparkles. Moreover, they can cover both entire nails, and partially. It is better to cover such a manicure with a top. But it lasts much longer than others, especially if you make it with regular varnish. Very nice andsparkles look gentle on a pink background, on black - more contrast and bright.
Shining Manicure
This design is more appropriate for parties, events, birthdays and more than everyday life. A silver manicure can be done with a special nail polish with a metallic sheen, this is the easiest option. Prepare the nail plate by polishing and degreasing it. Cover with the desired varnish in 2 layers, fix on top with a top.
You can also make such a manicure with special chrome powder, but this is not a task for beginners, as it will require certain skills. The pigment is applied to the gel polish! The nail is processed, after which it is covered with a base, then with a base varnish. Most often black. The mirror effect of powder looks best on it.
The smallest aluminum powder, which, in fact, is any such powder, is applied to the nail and rubbed into it until the coating becomes evenly silvery, glossy and shining.

If not, then you can turn to a good manicurist.
