Variations with white varnish are as follows: you can apply it on the lunula or, conversely, cover the entire nail with it, except for it. The most popular option: painting the entire nail plate in a snow-white color and separating the areas of the hole and the main nail with a transparent strip;
• French. Probably the most popular type of manicure using a white product. Classic. Relevant always and everywhere. Recently, varieties of the classic jacket have appeared: for example, you can leave the “smile” line transparent, but cover the rest of the nail with snow-white varnish. Or “blur” this line, creating a gradient effect, or draw a line not across the nail, but along. In general, even in such a seemingly strict, discreet type of manicure, interesting changes can be made.

• "Striped" manicure. With the help of randomly crossed lines, you can create a rather intricate abstract pattern that will fit perfectly into your image. White varnish can serve as a background for bright stripes, or be used as a liner for applying them to a transparent or colored surface of the nail;
• Matte manicure. This type of nail art is now very in demand. For its implementation, a varnish with a matte finish or a top finish with a similar effect is required. With it, you can decorate all the nails or only two on each hand (as a rule, choose the middle and ring fingers);

• White + pink. Lovely gentle tandem. And here the basis for the picture can be any of these colors. If you decide to make a pink background, then it is best to apply a snow-white pattern not on all fingers, but only on 2. If white varnish serves as the background, you can dream up. A gradient with a smooth color transition from white to pink and vice versa will also look very nice;

Pretty popular nail art. Sequins are widely used both in the festive and in the everyday version of the manicure. In order to choose the right glitter for the occasion (the second name for sequins) and apply it correctly, read the information below.

The fact is that sequins are different, no matter how obvious it may sound. There are two types of glitter: dry and liquid. Dry is, in fact, a brilliant powder that is poured onto the nail plate, covering it completely or creating a pattern using a superimposed stencil. Its adhesion to the coating occurs by applying to a non-dried surface and strengthening after drying. The finish is usually not applied.

liquid glitter - This is a colorless varnish with an admixture of shiny elements. It is applied with a brush on a completely dried nail. If the sequins are too large, you can cover the nails with a finish.

Liquid type glitter is applied with a brush. The less glitter in its composition, the easier it is to use. Most importantly, do not forget to pre-dry the varnish base. You can try to lay out a drawing with large curly elements. To do this, take a match or a toothpick, pick up the sparkle with it and stick it on the nail.

Also, sequins vary in shape and size. There are very small ones, like grains of sand on the seashore, there are also large ones - up to 1.5 mm. Those that are larger, as a rule, have the shape of a circle, square, star, etc. The color spectrum includes all the colors of the rainbow.

Dry glitter is more difficult to apply. First, cover the nail plate with a colorless varnish. Then, depending on the desired result, proceed in one of the following ways: if you need to make the nail completely shiny, place it in a jar of powder and slowly press the sparkles to the surface of the nail; if you want to get a curly print, paint it with a colorless varnish, and sprinkle glitter on top.

To perform various patterns on the surface of the nail, auxiliary elements will be needed. We will analyze such methods as using a regular sewing needle, stamping (stamp), ready-made stickers, acrylic paints and even water. So let's get started.

• Print with a sewing needle known for quite a long time. In order to create it, stock up on varnishes of various shades and, of course, take a needle. Cover your nails with the chosen varnish and, until it is dry, drip a few drops of a different color and connect them with a needle. Wait for the surface to dry completely, apply a colorless finish.
• Stamping (stamping) is performed as follows: a print is applied to varnished and slightly dried nail plates using a special print with a pattern. "Stamp" the selected areas, dry the varnish, cover the nails with a finish.

• If you want to decorate your manicure with a beautiful decorated pattern, your choice - ready stickers. They are sold in the form of a film with a pattern applied to it.So, apply white varnish, prepare the required number of cut stickers; then remove the transparent protective layer from each picture and place it on the nail with a sticky layer down. Now you need to remove the paper base. Carefully pick it up with eyebrow tweezers and slowly remove it, pressing the patterned film against the nail plate. If the sticker has gone beyond the free edge of the nail, cut it off and file the tip with a file. Apply a colorless finish.

• If you feel artistic talent in yourself - use acrylic paints. With their help, you can create real masterpieces. You will need, of course, paints, a thin brush, white varnish as a "canvas", a colorless finish. Yes, you will still need water to rinse the brush. And then it all depends on your imagination and skills. You can create a simple pattern in the form of openwork roses or intersecting lines, or you can try to draw a real picture.

• And another interesting way: creating prints with plain water. Prepare the following materials: a bath of warm water, a couple of beautiful colored nail polishes, a match or a toothpick, a Q-tip, and nail polish remover. Drip the selected varnish into a bath of water. Move a match over these drops, turning them into stains. Put your fingers in the bath, remove excess varnish from them. Turn your finger and pull it out. Soak a cotton swab in nail polish remover and wipe away any remaining polish from your skin.
