Just a couple of decades ago, blue was considered not only ambiguous, but simply an unacceptable color for manicure. Not only the townsfolk, but even the masters of their craft convinced the doubters that only drowned women, urban madmen and those who do not know how to use a hammer have nails of this color. Later, the blue color began to slowly penetrate the nail art, but there could be no question of any dominance. It was used only as an additional when painting nails.
Today everything has changed. Manicure in blue tones no longer surprises anyone. But in some ways his opponents were right: this color requires due respect. He does not tolerate any carelessness. And missing "your" shade from the palette is fraught with a complete lack of aesthetics. Does this mean it's better not to risk it? Perhaps you should stick to the traditional beige and pink range? Not at all! Simply, when choosing a varnish, and when creating a manicure, you should follow some simple recommendations. Yes, and the choice of design should be approached with a soul. And in this case, a manicure in blue tones will provide increased attention to your well-groomed hands. And the photos in the article will help with the choice.
How to choose blue polish
Choosing a varnish on the market, you can save a lot. But it is unlikely that a seller selling inexpensive cosmetics will provide you with a palette. And you can't be sure of the quality either. A budget purchase is likely to fly into the trash in the very near future.
Trust good producers, it is always justified. It is not at all necessary to pay fabulous money for a bottle of varnish; there is a good product in the middle price segment. Specialized stores and official cosmetics distributors always give the client the opportunity to make sure that he gets exactly what he wants. Some even provide samples. Never neglect this opportunity in the case of blue polish! For shades of this range, this is more than true. Poorly chosen blue can create the effect of soreness or just look faded and inexpressive on the nails.
If you do not have the opportunity to try on varnished tips or cover the nail with a probe, follow the rule that it is better to choose warm colors for warm skin tones. And vice versa.
French
For many years, French manicure has not left the pages of glossy magazines, catwalks and current portfolios of the most fashionable nail design masters. It would seem that its theme is fully disclosed: we saw both white and beige classics, and multi-colored neon stripes, and painting of the regrown part, and rhinestones, and piercings, and much more. But apparently, this is the very case when we can talk not about the trend, but about the style. Yes, and it's easy to make. A French manicure in blue tones, the photo of which is located below, can be created independently with the help of ordinary varnish and shellac (of course, if you have a lamp).
To make the pattern neat, use special French strips, which are sold in nail art stores.
Bright colors of summer
Manicure in blue and yellow is a great idea for the beach, picnic, travel. These colors are associated with the sun, sand, clear summer skies and, of course, the sea. If such a manicure is just what you are looking for, feel free to get down to business! Shades of blue go well with yellow. With these colors, you can make a moon manicure, paint your nails in random order, beat the idea of \u200b\u200ba "special nail" or make a painting shown in the following photo.
As you can see, nothing complicated, and the result looks very impressive. To create a picture, use thin brushes.
Sparkling neon
If your plans include a trip to a nightclub or a beach disco, do not miss the opportunity to shine in the beams of spotlights! Neon manicure in blue tones is easy to do yourself.
50 shades of… blue
A manicure in blue-blue tones with a color transition looks very stylish. This idea has been around for several years, but this design does not lose popularity. To create it, you need several varnishes of blue shades. Sort them from dark to light and apply on your nails one by one.
This manicure is a great idea for everyday style, but this technology can be used for special occasions. Apply gold or silver varnish over the coating through a stencil, decorate with semi-beads or rhinestones, glue decals. In a word, nails painted in different shades of the same color are a wonderful base for creative experiments.
Water blue manicure
The technique of applying drawings on nails with water definitely deserves to try to master it. To do this, you will need a shallow container with ordinary water, nail polish of 3-4 shades of blue, a needle and a sponge with a solvent. Drip a few drops of each varnish into the water in random order, mix the stripes with a needle. Pry off the lacquer film with your fingers and let it dry. It remains to gently wipe off the residue from the skin around the nails.
Don't be afraid if you don't achieve your plan the first time. Water manicure is not easy, but practice makes all the difference.
Royal combination
Manicure in blue and gold is a great idea for the New Year holidays, a romantic date, a corporate party. So that it does not look vulgar, do not overdo it with gold and glitter. If you use these colors, consider what kind of jewelry you will wear. It is unlikely that the combination of gold lacquer and silver or bronze rings will be successful.
Blue lacquer is far from being combined with any stones. For example, delicate carnelian will look faded against the background of blue, and the color of turquoise may look dirty. Try on rings in advance to avoid trouble on an important evening.
Marine theme
A red and blue manicure is a great idea for a nautical-inspired party. This is where you can show your imagination, creativity and taste!
This classic pairing is hard to overdo. Paint your nails randomly and apply the image of anchors, helms, knots. If you are not sure of your own artistic talent, use decals. They allow you to get excellent results.
Ever fashionable gradient
Colour transition coloring is suitable for everyday style and for creating festive looks. Manicure in white and blue colors using the "gradient" technique is easy to do.
To do this, cover your nails with a layer of white polish, let it dry. Put a drop of blue and a drop of white varnish on the sponge, rub the border with a toothpick, attach it to the nail. If the lacquer has come out of the nail, remove the residue.
As you can see, blue polish is suitable for creating many interesting looks.
