In the beauty industry, they say there are two types of women. The former love everything bright, catchy, expressive. Others strive for naturalness. But in both cases, the fair sex is trying to diversify their image, to bring something new and original to it. In this article we will talk about a non-standard and rare color of varnish - cream. A manicure sustained in this tone has many varieties and variations, and we will now get to know them.
What color is this?
Creamy is often confused with beige. It is believed that if it belongs to the pastel palette and is close to skin color, then it is certainly beige or flesh. In fact, if you look at a photo of a cream manicure, you will understand that this tone is fundamentally different from the skin tone. Firstly, it is lighter, it has a whitish pigment. Secondly, the shade combines both cold and warm undertones, which cannot be said about skin color, which is almost alwayswarm. It turns out that against the background of the skin, such nail art looks expressive, since the tones differ from each other, but at the same time remains gentle and light. A standard cream manicure can exist autonomously, or it can serve as the basis for creating a unique design. About what variations on this theme you can come up with, just now we'll talk.
Classic - fill with one color
Due to the fact that the cream color is quite different from the skin tone (even from the lightest), it will be very noticeable on the nails. This is not the tone that visually "merges" the fingers and nails. More he gravitates towards white, but, unlike his brother, cream is not so cold and not so capricious. Being very light, this varnish still hides minor flaws in the manicure and the errors of the master (while white, on the contrary, shows them with even greater force).
Cream-colored manicure will look great on nails of any length - both short and overgrown. It is also universal - suitable for any look and appropriate for any occasion.
No French anywhere
French manicure is a favorite nail design option for millions of women around the globe. Once upon a time, everyone rejoiced at this surprisingly gentle invention - the combination of white and beige colors was considered the most relevant. Then the rules changed, not only other pastel colors migrated to the jacket, but also dark, bright colors - red, black, blue, etc. However, today, whenfashion has turned back and the trend is again all the most natural and natural, cream varnish has become an excellent base for creating a jacket. We remind you that it is fundamentally different from white, although close to it. Therefore, their combination is both an expressive and gentle union of colors. A French-style cream manicure looks fresher and more original than the classic version, but at the same time remains restrained, gentle and concise.
Gradient in light colors
The fashion trend called ombre is a favorite technique in nail art. To create a smooth transition from one color to another, both bright and dark, as well as light and pastel palettes are used. If we are talking about the latter, then the result can be admired endlessly. Incredibly delicate tones, smoothly merging into each other and shimmering under a glossy finish - this is probably a manicure of a real princess. The cream color of the varnish is in perfect harmony with the entire pastel palette. If you want to create a unique design, choose mint, blue, lavender or pale yellow. If you are in pursuit of the most delicate solution, then cream color is best combined with nude, coffee or pale pink. By the way, rhinestones will look great against the background of such a touching gradient.
More glitter
If you are doing a creamy manicure for yourself, at home, and are looking for a simple but original solution, remember the good old sequins. First, this element of decordesigned to hide minor flaws in the work - if the varnish is rubbed somewhere or a scratch appears, the glitter will hide everything. Secondly, such a simple and uncomplicated design will look festive and magical even on gray days. And yes, if you want to make yourself a creamy manicure for short nails, then this option will be one of the best.
Minimalist
As we have already said, a cream manicure can play the role of a base for creating any nail art. But since this color is gentle and restrained, we decided not to break the traditions and came up with a strict and concise design. Simply match the creamy nail polish with the chrome accents. It is better to give preference to golden shades, as silver ones will look very faded against the background of almost white varnish and create an extremely cold image. A kind of minimalism looks incredibly stylish, but remains restrained. Therefore, a manicure will be relevant both during working hours and during the holidays. And depending on the chosen shape and size of the chrome insert, you can visually lengthen short nails.
Bet on contrast
Due to its versatility, cream nail polish can be paired with not only pastel palettes, but also dark tones. Marsala and cream are considered one of the most successful tandems. Judge for yourself from the photo below. Both colors are in the category of warm, but at the same time they have some cold blotches. They contrast - lightcolor acts as a background, and dark red complements it. This type of nail art is suitable for strong-willed, strong, self-confident women, it will go well with evening dresses and non-standard business suits.
Wedding motifs
As a rule, pastel and nude tones are used as the basis for lacquers that are used to create wedding nail art. Most often, brides choose a French ombre or just a French manicure, additionally decorating it with sequins or rhinestones. But we offer you an even lighter and more delicate solution - a cream-colored wedding manicure. The photo below partially conveys the atmosphere of magic and celebration.
This design is not complicated, it looks simple, but incredibly gentle, touching and elegant. It will go well with a dress of a milky shade or beige, with translucent makeup and a slightly careless hairstyle. It is also noteworthy that in this nail art we do not see rhinestones. Such accessories would look too heavy here.
