Design Features
Surely you not only heard about this method, but also saw how beautiful the casting looks on the nails. How to make such a luxurious manicure - read below. It should be noted that nail art is performed mainly on artificial plates. To create it, a special foil (transferable and non-transferable), gel or glue is used. Explain what casting is. This is a beautiful pattern that is created on a strip of polymerized gel using foil stamping.
First, the master makes nail extensions. Casting, as already mentioned, is performed only on artificial plates. Then the nails are covered with a special gel and placed for 5 minutes under an ultraviolet lamp to dry. A foil is glued to the sticky gel surface and the polymerization procedure under UV rays is repeated again. The master assigns the exposure time individually.
To get a fancy image, the foil must be sharply removed from the nail plate. This completes the procedure. If you have never tried to perform such tricks before, then we recommend that you first carefully study the theory, watch master classes (ideally, videos), and then move on
to practice. Mastering the technology is not so difficult, very soon you will be able to decorate your own nails.
Gold casting among fashionistas is the most popular. Unusual solutions will be prompted by your boundless imagination - there are no boundaries here. Thin strokes are made with glue, then the surface is dried and a transfer foil is applied to it, after which it is torn off with a sharp movement. If by chance there is an unpainted area, then the procedure is repeated. Foil for creating nail art can be purchased at specialized stores.

How to make casting on nails using "liquid stones"
Nail art of professional masters fascinates and delights. Innovative solutions and technologies are rapidly developing and help us turn the most unexpected ideas into reality. The most fashionable and extravagant today is casting on nails with iridescent "liquid stones". 3D effect andthe brilliance of the metal is achieved by means of foil. We encourage you to try this technique for yourself. To create a manicure you will need:
-
casting on nails how to do tear-off (gold) foil;
- brushes (natural, angled and "hair");
- different shades of art gels;
- stained glass gel;
- protective gel;
- thick sculpting gel;
- ultraviolet lamp.
First step
Sand the plates with a nail file, cut off the cuticle and draw a jacket with white gel. Put your fingers under the UV lamp for about two minutes, and then apply a protective gel to the surface and repeat the polymerization.
Second step
Take the brush "hair" and black art gel and draw wide lines (to fit the foil). Hold your fingers under UV rays for a few minutes. We carefully put the matte side of the foil on the plate, or rather on the lines shown, and then sharply tear it off. You will see how a beautiful golden mark remained on the nail. We do the procedure with all the patterns - this is called casting.
Third step
Let's start framing with "stones". We take colored gels and draw inclusions (it is better to use 2 shades). We withstand several minutes under UV rays and cover with stained glass gel. Fix the polymer with a lamp.
Fourth step
Making the decor more natural and natural, for this we need a sculpting gel and a thin brush. We carry out polymerization, then cover the nailprotective gel and fix the result with a lamp. A charming and bright manicure will complement the image. And how beautifully the "pebbles" will shimmer in the sun - just a feast for the eyes!
Creating a gold pattern with glue
1. Casting on nails can also be done using special glue and transfer foil. First, draw a pattern on the plate. The color of the glue is matte, but when it dries, it becomes transparent, so do not be alarmed and wait for it to dry thoroughly. It’s even better to dry it a little so that our pattern doesn’t smudge.
2. We apply the foil to the image with the matte side and press it firmly, then quickly tear it off. The golden film will remain in place of the painting. If there are blank spaces in the figure, repeat the procedure. Try to carefully apply the foil and do not move it.
Advantages and disadvantages
Here is such a simple technique. Casting on nails is always interesting, colorful and spectacular. But this design is not for everyone. Firstly, the nail plate turns out to be embossed and voluminous, and this is not very convenient for women who run a household. Secondly, the technology is more suitable for owners of long artificial nails, which not every girl can afford.
However, this is where the shortcomings end. Volumetric drawing gives the nails sophistication and elegance, making the handles look very well-groomed! And this is regardless of the daily work around the house. You do not have to reapply varnish after each wash or wetcleaning, because the foil on glue or gel lasts about two weeks. Also among the undeniable and significant benefits include:
- convenience and ease of creating a bright, bold and unique manicure at home;
- application speed;
- original and daring effect, which is difficult to achieve with even expensive varnishes;
- The ability to create custom nail art with exquisite details.
Foil casting is an innovation in the world of nail industry and aesthetics. Such a manicure with a metallic sheen and a colored hologram fascinates others, creates the impression that precious stones are applied to the nail plate. This technology was highly appreciated by world celebrities. Foil manicure is unique, while it does not require significant costs. Simple and affordable elements will work wonders with your fingers, making them neat and well-groomed.
