New 2018 brought new trends in nail design. The gel polish boom has passed, which did not allow lengthening the nail plate. The debate about whether or not he spoils his nails has subsided. There was a rubber base. Gel and acrylic became friends, and each began to perform its function. Extension methods are outdated, new ones have appeared.
In 2018 it is fashionable to wear long nails, but a small length is kept for every day. White manicure is at the height of fashion this season. Imitation of metals is very relevant. Silver and gold colored rhinestones are welcome. The drawings are represented by stripes of all kinds and stylized graphic images. Only velvet appeared, similar to wool. Still wear ombre and matte finish.
Now everything is possible for a manicurist. Of course, this was reflected in the fashion of the new year. Nail stylists demonstrated many techniques at the shows, combining and mixing them. It is impossible to cover all the novelties, but you should tell about the white jacket with a pattern in detail.
Long again in fashionnails
New building materials, already tested by masters, have made the return of long forms possible. One of the most spectacular steel stilettos. These are sharp nails, sometimes very long. Rihanna prefers them and many girls follow her.
Not everyone dares to wear such nails every day. But if you saw off the sharp tip, you get the shape of a "ballerina". On such nails, a jacket with a pattern looks great, and it is much more convenient to wear them. The almond shape is a little narrower than before. It is also considered long. Its advantage is that it can be performed on natural nails.
French on long nails is done with lengthening of the nail bed. To do this, use camouflage gels. If the jacket is with a pattern, you can not do it on all nails. White nails are in fashion, and white gel drawings will be relevant.
Silver and gold as nail decorations
Gold and silver elements are back in fashion, bringing with them other metal imitations - lead and steel. For a jacket with a pattern, it is better to choose the classics: frank metal is aggressive, and we are talking about a gentle manicure. Gold or silver can be matched to any dress. It is known that the French manicure was invented specifically for changing outfits, it also fits any look. So combine the jacket with the pattern of gold stripes!
Striped manicure lasts more than one season. But in 2018, he acquired variations: at the Delpozo show, on a nude tone - a modest silver strip, like a ring. ideapicked up by stylists Cushnie et Ochs. The line walks along the nail, then becomes horizontal, then takes a diagonal position.
This trend is suitable for any length and shape, plus it's easy to do yourself. He is subtle, but draws attention to himself. You can try this option: make golden nails and draw stripes with white gel. This golden jacket with cameo design on one finger is perfection.
Matte Manicure
This year matte manicure is used to create a noble gentle look. It is better to combine it with shiny elements, drops, rhinestones - so the design of the jacket with a pattern will be richer. How to make this cover:
- On the completed jacket, not a standard top coat is applied, but a top with a satin effect. Or matte top.
- Drops of a transparent design gel are applied to the nails with dots. Polymerize in a UV or LED lamp recommended by the gel manufacturer. It is better to take a single-phase gel, because it shines beautifully.
- On two nails, put on a small strassein, preferably Swarovski.
Glow in the dark matte polish will be popular in summer. It goes well with shiny sand. The combination of white sands, matte and shiny, creates a wonderfully delicate design.
Fashion drawings on nails
With all the richness of materials for design, many still prefer drawings. This happens for various reasons: someone does not like the uneven surface that remains after acrylic modeling, someone is annoyed by rhinestones clinging to their hair. And somethey like to change the design more often, and then the drawings help not to remove the annoying gel polish, but to paint it.
This year's themes: graphics, floral motifs, monograms. When there is a strict dress code at work, only a jacket with a pattern will enliven a boring design. You can stick black drawings on the completed French manicure. You should not do this on each nail, it is enough to select two nails on each hand. A graceful composition along the side line of the nail will visually lengthen the fingers and will not damage the dress code.
Scarlet poppies look beautiful on a white jacket. This is a large flower, so do not try to fit the whole poppy on one nail. It is better to place it on two adjacent nails (for example, ring and index) and use the “double stroke” technique.
Snow Manicure
Snow drawings are popular in winter. On sale there are stickers of snowflakes for every taste. But this winter, it became possible to imitate snow in a different way. Velvet sand appeared. It comes in different colors, but it is better to take white. Velvet is sprinkled on a wet white smile, then polymerized, and only then the remnants of sand are swept away. It turns out a velvet smile even to the touch.
Snow nail design "French with snowflake pattern" can also be done using stickers. The main thing is that they are different. When it snows, the snowflakes are visible near, and those that are far away seem to be just white dots. By putting a few dots on the nails, adding one or two sparkles, you can achieve the depth of the image.
You can make a snow jacket at home. To do this, you will need corner stencils for a jacket, a transparent varnish with sparkles and a white varnish for drawing a smile. Procedure:
- Apply base coat, dry. In the case of gel polish, polymerize in a UV or LED lamp for 2 minutes, then remove the dispersion.
- Stick stencils and apply white polish or gel polish. Immediately carefully remove the stencils and dry. Gel polish is dried in a lamp for 2-3 minutes.
- Apply top, dry.
- Paint two stripes inside the smile with clear glitter polish, dry.
Tip: If you don't have any clear glitter polish on hand, you can add glitter to the top. It is better to do this on a palette, and then apply to the nail with a regular nail polish brush.
Ombre
Ombre or gradient is a very effective and delicate design. It is not easy to make it, so it is better to contact a specialist. It is beautiful on its own and also makes a great backdrop for designs. You can make a white-pink transition, like a jacket. On nails with a pattern of floral motifs, it will look amazingly gentle.
Flowers can be depicted stylized so as not to cover the ombre pattern. Finely drawn tulips, sakura branches, leaves will attract admiring glances.
