Geometry on nails with gel polish

A woman's hands are her second face, so it is extremely important to carefully monitor the condition of your manicure. Now there are many different types of hand care products. One of the trendiest looks is the geometric nail design.

Geometric nail art, or as it is called, nail geometry is a technique for applying geometric shapes to nails. You can draw figures on your nails on a whim, armed only with your imagination, or you can use special tools for this purpose.

You can draw figures on the nails manually using a brush. The image of simple patterns is created with a thin brush. You can also use a toothpick instead of a brush. This method of applying a geometric pattern requires some skills from the performer.

It is important to have a "firm hand" and confidence, and it is acquired with practice. So try and improve your skills. From time to time it will get better and better.

In order to create such a pattern, you need varnishes of different colors and a colorless fixative.First, the nails are covered with one tone. After that, a variety of shapes are applied on top of it. You can limit yourself to drawing only the contour, or you can paint over them.

This is the easiest type of drawing on the nails. It is performed as follows. Nails are covered with light varnish. After waiting for it to dry completely, strips are glued to the nail. Next, apply a varnish of a different color. Then remove the strips. If you want to apply other shapes to the nails, then you will need to do this manipulation again.

This is a more convenient and faster way to create a geometric pattern. To do this, you need to cut out some geometric shapes, varnish your nails, dry them, then stick the paper figures on top and apply a varnish of a different color. After the varnish has dried in the lamp, they should be removed. As a result, we get unpainted areas on the nails in the form of various shapes.

Dots is a brush made of metal with a ball-shaped tip. It is used to draw circles and dots on the nails. The method of using this brush is very simple: dip it into a jar of varnish, then press the tip to the nail.

As a rule, these are strips that come in silver and gold colors and have an adhesive base. To create a geometric image on the nails, it is necessary to apply gel polish, dry it under a lamp, stick strips (for example, diagonally), apply a varnish of a different color to the formed segments.Further, the strips can be removed or left, cutting the ends. The final step is to apply a fixative to the nail plate.

Here, the main tool is a stencil, on which various geometric patterns have already been applied. It must be varnished and pressed against the nail plate using a kind of stamp. This method allows you to create a complex design on the nails in a couple of minutes.

Basic manicure - hygienic treatment of hands, polishing and degreasing of nail plates.

We cover the nail with a special tool - the base for gel polish. After polymerization under a special lamp for about a minute.

We cover the nail plate with colored gel polish and carefully seal the open edge of the nail. After applying the next layer, a polymerization procedure of at least 2 minutes follows.

Let's move on to drawing geometric shapes. In those areas of the nail plate where the drawings are connected, we draw lines with black varnish. We get a fashionable image.

We cover the completed drawing with a fixative and polymerize under the lamp for 3 minutes.

Manicure in geometric style.

For the past year, geometric nail art has flaunted on European catwalks among gothic dark, scarlet, metallic and nude manicures.

The most popular trends in this art are French and its derivatives, "moon" and "marble" nail art, as well as the "negative space" style. But the leader among them for the last two years is geometric nail art.

Despite the fact that most brand designers prefer trendy stripes, you can safely depict a variety of geometric shapes on your nails: dots, straight and broken lines, rhombuses, circles, triangles and others.

Last year, nail art experts came up with some interesting solutions, combining geometry with other popular nail styles, such as the "moon" technique, "negative space," matte and sand relief. Now fashion is coordinated not by "naphthalene" patterns and isolated images, but by the fantasy and boldness of ideas.

Fashionable inventions of designers, embodied on the catwalks, are not always suitable for execution in everyday life. Fortunately, geometric nail art is an exception to this rule. The main thing in this business is not to overload your manicure with all the geometric shapes you know, otherwise the design will look tasteless and old-fashioned. Therefore, when choosing a pattern, be guided by the principle of "one figure", that is, do not interfere with circles with triangles and squares.

A popular trend this year is the domino-style manicure. It can be done in a beauty salon or on your own. For this you need:

• cover the nail plate with white varnish, preferably matte;
• draw some black dotsto look like dominoes;
• apply a fixer.

Effective drawing is ready.

Design "Snowflake" - another original kind of geometric pattern. It is important here that the snowflakes are the same on each nail.

Is very popular Abstraction technique. It is considered the most difficult to perform. In order to depict the pattern, you need to apply a base for the pattern on the surface of the nail plate with a bright varnish.Draw dots of different sizes on top and connect them together. At the end, cover the nail with a fixative.

Technique "Geometric mess". Here the main technique is to draw geometric shapes on top of each other. You can combine different shapes or the same, but in different sizes. In general, let your imagination run wild.

Technique "Ethnic drawings". Use any figures resembling an ornament on folk costumes.

Technique "Mosaic". To perform a manicure in this style, you need to cover the nail plate with a plain varnish, draw arbitrary “zones” on it and paint them in a contrasting color.

Technique "Chess". Effective and simple nail art design. Initially, the nail is covered with white. Then vertical and horizontal stripes are drawn with black varnish, the crayons are painted over in a "checkerboard pattern". For this technique, you can use other color combinations.

For drawing geometric shapes, use varnishes with a high density so that there is no need to apply several layers and thereby distort the overall look of the manicure. It is better to use contrasting shades of gel polishes, because "related" colors will not give the desired effect.

If for your nail art you have chosen a design that is too complex, consisting of many different shapes, then we advise you not to cover all the nails on your hand with a pattern. Too pretentious drawing can visually "weight" the manicure.

If for the first time you decide to apply geometric patterns yourself, then you should first practice on paper. The main thing is to be attentive and give free rein to your imagination.
