Manicure with blue varnish

Today, there are countless varieties of manicure options.. At its core, nail decoration is a creative process, so any fantasy is limited only by the choice of possible colors and shades.

If many other options quickly become trendy and are also quickly forgotten depending on the season, then blue is distinguished by its versatility.

Blue color has a huge variety of shades. We can say that this is the only light option that provides such a wide variety of solutions. Starting from light blue and ending with almost black shades - there is a choice for any, even the most daring woman who is not afraid to experiment in her style.

He talks about a lot. Blue is the color of the sky, the sea, a wide free space. It gives a feeling of lightness and freedom, which is why it is now most popular among girls and women who are tired of too bright colors or the monotony of pastel colors. Manicure based on shades of blue attracts attention with its lightness and grace.

In the tones that so abound in blue, you can very easily get confused.Aquamarine, classic blue, sapphire, cornflower blue, indigo... And these are just the most popular shades that can offer a lot of different combinations and solutions in terms of overall style.

On the other hand, it is precisely such a rich palette that allows women to choose an option that will be in harmony with a certain detail of their overall style. In this case, to choose the most suitable shade, the masters suggest adhering to the following simple rules:

• Always avoid shades that, when applied, will give the hands an overall dirty gray color. Lacquer, first of all, should not repel the eye, but be pleasant and easy for him;
• The overall style should focus on the length of your nails. So, for example, dark blue and any other colors from a similar palette look best on long nails. For short, a light and light tone is preferable;
• You can also start from the color of the hair and skin, so that the manicure looks more harmonious.. Blondes with very light hair color and pale skin should opt for the most saturated and vibrant shades. At the same time, any impurities in the manicure should be avoided, it will look better in its conciseness;
• If you are the owner of a luxurious tan or your skin is dark in itself, then matte and dark rich shades of blue varnish are best suited;
• Some options are quite “finicky” and not suitable for everyone. So, for example, the shade "indigo" has similar qualities. Experienced masters recommend it to women with pure olive skin color;
• Red-haired women are not particularly limited in their choice of blue. However, they are most often recommended "matte" varnish options, in which there are blotches of green;
• If you find it difficult to decide, pay attention to other details of your abundance. If it contains any element whose color favorably highlights your advantages and gives freshness, then you should try a varnish of a similar shade;
• Manicure in dark colors is considered more versatile. Again, too light shades on fair skin can look too faded. In any case, before finally deciding on a manicure option, it is best to apply a small amount of varnish on the nail and evaluate the result;
• The main rule for choosing a manicure, regardless of the color scheme, is always personal taste. In order for the nails to look pleasant and arouse interest, you should choose a shade of your own preference.

If it’s not so difficult to figure out the choice of shade, then it will not be easier to dwell on a specific design of the manicure itself. Here again, much depends on your imagination, and only personal preferences play a decisive role.

The blue color of the varnish, thanks to its huge palette of tones and its versatility, is completely open to a wide variety of experiments. You can highlight both the most popular design options that are great for blue tones, as well as individual examples that stand out precisely because of this color of the base.

It should immediately be emphasized that the blue color on the nails looks much better if it looks natural and sufficiently saturated. That is why the so-called gel polish is preferred. It does not differ in color from standard manicure varnishes, but it has a number of advantages

For this reason, its application requires a preliminary special base, and it is almost impossible to remove such a manicure without a special tool. Also, its distinguishing feature is precisely the saturation of colors and the natural appearance of the manicure. Thanks to these qualities, gel polish is best suited for decorating nails in blue.

In this case, a glitter manicure would be a good design solution. The easiest way to apply it is liquid. It is carried out just with the help of a shimmer, so it does not require any complicated actions.

More complex - the dry decor method requires the sequential application of sparkles, rhinestones or even larger elements, the so-called glitters. For better fixation, they are placed on a layer of varnish that has not yet completely dried with miniature tweezers, tweezers, or with a regular toothpick.

Decorating nails with glitter is usually the choice for a festive and more colorful manicure. You can place them all over the plate, which is a good option for owners of short nails. A more elegant option may also be the decision to place sparkles along the edge of the nail plate or along the cuticle line. In any case, a manicure with rhinestones can be suitable for every woman as a bright element of a festive style.

Fans of bold decisions should not neglect Metallic manicure. It is sometimes also called mirror. Although you will not see your reflection in the nails, this unusual style attracts attention and delights with its cleanliness and well-groomedness, moreover, in recent years it has regained the status of a trend.

For shades of blue, the Metallic style is a good choice. It is best suited if a sufficiently dark and saturated color is taken as the basis, but light colors can, on the contrary, acquire an untidy and dirty gray look, which is especially fraught with a blue palette.

If you use the same gel, you can achieve completely different design solutions in terms of complexity by applying combined patterns. It is best suited, for example, a drawing in bright colors on a dark blue background. It can be both abstract lines and patterns with bright blue flowers that will emphasize the elegance and lightness of your manicure.

It is worth noting that the blue color is distinguished by its harmony. Many color combinations are acceptable for him, which also expand the choice of the overall design of your marigold decoration. They are easy enough to figure out:

• Quite popular is the combination of shades of blue with yellow or sand color. They work especially well when used with gradients and the deepest, brightest tones;
• If you are interested in really bold solutions, then try combinations with rich pink or even ruby ​​​​color. This is the case when contrast can favorably emphasize the neatness and conciseness of your style;
• If you want to highlight the lightness and subtlety of the blue color, then try combining it with gray or silver. Such a choice will be especially successful if you prefer a metallic manicure;
• For women who are unsure of the choice and prefer light tones of blue, we can recommend paying attention to the classics from the black and white palette. It will look rather concise and will easily emphasize the depth and brightness of the blue color;
• Manicure based on blue and blue is a rather free choice in terms of experiments. However, it also has its exceptions. For example, from shades of red, pale crimson should be avoided. Combination with brown or bright orange is also not recommended.

For any woman, it is no secret that the quality of her manicure or any other element of the overall style depends entirely on the quality of the materials used. That is why every self-respecting master or cosmetologist does not advise clients to save on their beauty.

A good varnish is a tool that has the following characteristics:

• Damage resistant. This is a particularly important feature for any gel polish;
• Preservation of color saturation and its tone. Poor-quality varnishes turn pale very quickly after application;
• Preservation of the structure. If a cobweb of cracks appears on your manicure after a few days, then this is a clear sign that you better change your varnish;
• Ease of removal;
• For most varnishes, the density and uniformity of their structure is also important. It is especially worth paying attention to this quality if you prefer a mirror manicure.

However, the quality of the varnish is not limited to external characteristics. A truly high-quality product should not contain any components that could damage the nail plate.And even vice versa - responsible cosmetics manufacturers are trying to make their products useful for women's health.

This manufacturer is one of the few who has earned its reputation not only for its favorable price, but also for its reliable quality. Immediately it is worth noting that the assortment has a huge selection of shades of blue.

Also interesting may seem like a texture varnish. For example, you can purchase and try out the Liquid Sand line. It also has different tones of blue and cyan. With the help of such a varnish, you can effortlessly achieve a concise and pleasant sand manicure.

In general, nail polishes from Oriflame receive a lot of positive feedback from women who decide to opt for a popular brand. They do not lose their saturation, are not prone to rapid cracking, have all sorts of shades of blue and various texture solutions, many of which have already become a bright novelty.

Vogue nails is another popular brand today. Among its products, nail polishes deserve special attention. In particular, gel polishes, which demonstrate high stability, are of excellent quality. Also among the positive qualities are deep and rich shades of blue that will remain on your nails for a long time.

In general, Vogue nails products can be called a kind of classic. At the same time, the gel polish of this company does not harm the nail plate, but only strengthens it.

The blue color in itself is a priority choice for real fashionistas. Until now, it is considered an ageless classic, and being the basis for a manicure, it makes it easy to choose the most suitable design solution for the season.

To date, among the new products, only some options for combining colors and patterns can be noted. A white print on blue or any other dark blue tone is gaining great popularity.

For example, in spring and summer, you can opt for drawings such as flowers and patterns. White will look great on both deep hues and less dark blues. Another novelty of this summer is a gradient of azure with white. You can also add white smooth lines and a sand border at the edge of the nail plate, which forms an abstract and eye-pleasing image of a beach on the shores of a clear ocean.

In winter, the blue color of manicure does not lose its popularity. Again, its combination with white takes on a new breath - the image of snowflakes and other Christmas themes again become a real classic. For this, clear blue and blue tones are the best suited.

In addition, the combination of different shades among themselves wins. For example, a checkered or polka-dot manicure has gained popularity, where any combination of blue varnish with other colors or even shades can act as a contrast.

In addition, it is worth paying attention to texture varnishes. One of the most popular new products was a blue nail polish with a craquelure effect, which was rushed to the market by the well-known brand Oriflame. This is a special varnish coating that creates the effect of natural deep cracks, thanks to which the manicure takes on the look of an old, but still deep and mysterious oil painting.

To get a beautiful manicure, you need to competently approach not only the application of varnish, but also the preparation of the nail plate. In general, if you master some of the subtleties of creating a manicure, you can save on going to the master, easily creating masterpieces on your nails.

Some combinations of colors and patterns are very picky about the shape and length of the nail plate:

• Special attention should be paid to the surface of the nail. This is especially true if you choose dark and deep tones. They are especially fastidious about the well-groomed fingers;
• Also pay attention to the cuticle. It should either be removed or moved away, as too overgrown will make the blue manicure untidy;
• For shades of blue, the best nail shape is square with rounded corners. Be sure to remove sharp edges after shaping the plate;
• Try to get just the right amount of polish on your brush to cover one nail at a time. Apply the product from bottom to top, starting from the middle of the plate. Only at the end distribute it evenly in all directions. After you learn how to perform these actions in one go, the strokes will be even and neat;
• Be sure to let the first coat of varnish dry. Only after that, apply a drawing or other contrasting layer, depending on the design you have chosen. If the manicure consists of several components, do not forget that each of them comes in a separate layer, which must first dry. An exception is a glitter manicure, where the rhinestones are fixed on a still fresh varnish;
• Do not forget to cover the final work on your nails with a layer of fixer. In addition to protecting the varnish from delamination, it will also give it a well-groomed appearance and a pleasant matte sheen.
