Festive manicure

Every girl knows that a festive look consists not only of beautiful and solemn clothes, bright makeup and stylish hairstyles. An important element of this image is a festive manicure. It demonstrates the significance of a particular case and allows the woman to be in the spotlight. Such a manicure differs from everyday design, bringing a festive mood to the style.

The first thing that betrays the triumph of the occasion is highlighting part of the nail with glitter. Such a manicure attracts attention, even if the design is based on a jacket, plain classic or moon design. Chic and shine are the first signs of design.

In the festive design of nails, the freedom to choose colors and decor is not limited. In addition to the pigment, base, primer and finish necessary for the base and fixing the result, stamping, sliders, sparkles, art, contours, decorative adhesive tapes, rhinestones and microbeads are widely used. However, this is not just multicolored: such a manicure implies a thorough study of the composition, obeying a specific theme.

Significance is one of the features of such a manicure: often the design indicates the theme of the holiday, whether it is an engagement, wedding, party, birthday, New Year, Christmas, Easter or Halloween. Often, certain colors of the holiday are taken as the basis:

• white and silver - for the wedding;
• red, green, white - At Christmas;
• gentle pastel - for a birthday;
• orange, black - for Halloween;

In addition to tones, symbolic patterns are used (Christmas trees, gifts, bows, hearts, crowns, flowers, lace, etc.). Moreover, it is not necessary that the drawings on the nails be repeated: the main rule of harmony is to combine the composition through color.

Festive manicure makes nails super-beautiful. In this case, the shape and length of the nail plates does not matter: it can be straight, oval, sharp. The only thing worth paying attention to is the identity of the length and shape of all nails.

Today, holiday manicure is a real art. Some glitter over a rich color polish is boring and old-fashioned. In the design, you can combine art and rhinestones, emphasize in the form of an independent drawing or divide it into several parts. It all depends on the imagination and sense of taste.

To bring the spirit of the holiday into the design, you will need:

• rhinestones, microbisser, glitter;
• water and self-adhesive pictures (sliders);
• special stamp with a set of templates;
• gold and silver outline.

An interesting and unique nail design for the holiday, which will be the finishing touch of the outfit, can be done using the ombre technique. The surface of the nail plates is covered with a pigment of different colors with a smooth transition of shades. When the background is ready, you can decorate it with stamping in contrast to the background, and place small rhinestones on top. Performing such a design, you can leave two or three nails for an accent, painting them in one color, and then decorating them with an elegant sticker to match the shades used.

You can add elegance to an inverted jacket with the help of rhinestones. The basis is to take a bright and saturated pigment. For example, make a smile white tone, background - red. It is better to cover the nameless fingers with completely white color, and then place pictures on them in the form of a golden crown. All that remains is to decorate the accents with rhinestones - and the festive manicure for going out is ready: stylish and royally luxurious!

On a special day, everything should be perfect, including the bride's manicure. An excellent design solution can be a classic jacket with a transparent background and a white smile. You can bring a festive mood and demonstrate the tenderness of the bride with the help of three-dimensional 3D flowers, placing them in the middle of each nail plate. From above, the centers of the flowers are made, decorating the petals with tiny crystal drops. A manicure will look especially beautiful, the pattern of which will repeat the lace of the dress.

A festive manicure filled with lightness can be created using sliders or art. This design will decorate your birthday (or other holiday) outfit and will attract everyone's attention.

As the main background, varnish with mother-of-pearl or sparkles is chosen.To work, you need matte contrasts to give the nail the look of a butterfly wing. Having covered the background with pigment, veins are drawn with a needle or contour, then the upper edge (smile) is painted over in the form of a wing and a few strokes are added with a contrasting color.

An interesting, truly colorful and festive manicure can be created using pigment powder, black, silver shades and a few transparent rhinestones. The highlight of the art is the uniqueness of each nail:

• the nail of the index finger is painted with powder pigment;
• the little finger is twice covered with silver;
• the middle finger is black and a pyramid of rhinestones is laid out at the hole;
• the ring nail is decorated with an ornament of stripes in the form of the letter Y, using a special adhesive tape;
• the surface of the thumbnail is decorated with powdered silver.

The beauty of a festive manicure is endless. Today it is not just varnish and decor: it is important to choose a high-quality type of coating, fashionable decor tools, and choose a color scheme.

Fashion trends of the season are:

• gel-based coatings that do not contain ammonia;
• noble tones of varnish without impurities;
• the use of coatings with the effect of a chameleon and a "cat's eye" as a background;
• combination in one manicure of two (three) different designs;
• dividing the pattern into several nails.

Gel polish has successfully replaced the usual type of coating.

Coatings with an unusual effect are unique in themselves: both chameleon and cat's eye are an excellent backdrop for design or art. Thermo gel polish is changeable, like a woman's mood: it constantly changes color, reacting to a change in temperature. The cat-eye polish is perfect for conveying the texture of pollen, it goes well with sliders, contrasting art and matte polish with a pattern that echoes in the same tone.

Of the variety of decorative elements, transfer sheets and sparkling decor especially attract attention. Today, with their help, you can make a holiday in any manicure. Moreover, the choice is so great and varied that you can find absolutely any desired pictures and rhinestones, as well as miniature crystal drops and micropearls.

Giving nails a festive manicure is not difficult, although it will require accuracy and perseverance. It is easier to design for a holiday at home if you use the instructions of professional masters for working with gel polish:

• before applying varnish, they file the shape and grind the surface of the nail plates, removing the layer of keratin;
• using a dehydrator, degrease the nails, preparing them for staining;
• to strengthen nails, they are treated with an acid-free primer;
• then a thin layer of the base is applied, not forgetting the end of the nail;
• having primed the surface with a base coat, apply a pigmented varnish;
• perform art (design with sliders, stamping);
• the surface is treated with a fixative (finish) with a sticky layer;
• the pattern is accentuated with rhinestones.

Base, fixer and primer are a prerequisite for a perfect manicure. They will enhance the grip and will not allow a manicure to spoil the mood on a festive day.Gel polish looks expensive and professional, it is more reliable than regular polish. In addition, it is easy to use, so it allows you to make a festive manicure on your own, at home, saving the budget and time to visit the salon.

The main thing is to take care of buying a special lamp, with which each applied layer of the coating is dried. In order not to make a mistake in choosing, the masters recommend purchasing a 36-watt UV or LED lamp. The first is universal and dries any gel-based coating. The second is considered a professional device, although not all coatings are suitable for it.

To make the manicure look perfect, the masters working in the salon are advised to take into account a number of nuances:

• hands must be well-groomed, otherwise even a festive manicure will look tired;
• fashionable length of nails is close to natural: this is enough to make art, decorate the surface with a beautiful sticker or stamping and not divert attention to the length of the nails;
• in order not to spend a lot of time on drawing, you should use stickers and rhinestones: the look of the nails will be in the spirit of a salon manicure;
• when covering nails with varnish, base or finish, you need to pay special attention to the end of the nail (otherwise the coating will quickly chip off);
• if water-based sliders are used in the design, it is better to stick them on a layer of pigment or finish, be sure to fix them on top with a coating with a sticky layer;
• before applying each layer, you need to make sure that the previous one has dried well: otherwise, the coating will not last even a few days;
• rhinestones are glued over the fixative.

Festive manicure gives a special mood. He is able to become a highlight of style, allows you to show individuality and speaks of the modernity of a woman.
