Nail Art Designs from NailProf
Let’s start with sliders. Sliders are special stickers that can be applied over nail polish. They can transform an ordinary manicure into a work of art.Anyone can use these stickers, even without any special skills. They are easy and safe to use.
This type of decor is divided into two categories:
Category 1
– Film sliders, which are water-based. These stickers need to be soaked in water before applying them to the nail.
– Transfer sliders – easy to use. A manicure with these sliders is accessible to every woman.
Category 2
– “Dotted Pattern” – these are small images that do not completely cover the nail. These sliders are suitable for a French manicure. These sliders will look great on light shades of polish, or you can opt for a clear polish.
– Sliders with a large design look best on long nails.
– Sliders that cover the entire nail. This type of sticker will look great on both natural and extended nails.
Nail sliders will save you time and help you create your desired pattern or image quickly. No special training or experience is required. To use these stickers, you’ll need scissors to cut out the desired design, a manicure set, a dry cloth, a small bowl of water if applying water-based sliders, and a nail polish fixative.
Gradient Manicure
This manicure is very popular and remains popular today. Gradient manicure is a technique used to apply polish in a way that creates a smooth transition from one color to another. This manicure looks beautiful and unique. A gradual transition from a bright to a pale polish color and vice versa can be used, or several similar shades can be used, but their brightness will vary. There are several methods for painting nails in a gradient. To create this manicure, you will need a foam sponge with small pores.
Cat’s Eye Gel Polish
The “cat’s eye” manicure has only recently become fashionable, but it has already captured the hearts of fashionistas with its stunning effect. Cat’s eye gel polish simulates the design of the eponymous gemstone on the nail surface. This gel polish has a unique magnetic coating that creates stunning patterns on the nail.
Application options:
– First, a clear varnish is applied to the nail. Colored shades of varnish are applied to the sponge in lines, then the sponge is applied to the nail and a gradient is created.
– Colored varnishes are applied to plastic film, the shades must be mixed with a toothpick and the design is imprinted on the nail. Before applying colored varnish, you need to apply a colorless base.
Liquid pebbles for nails
In nail design, the newest technique for decorating nails has appeared – these are liquid stones. The technique is quite simple; this manicure can be done in a salon, or with practice you can create masterpieces at home. If casting seems too complicated, polymer stones can be a good alternative.
A manicure with liquid stones is performed with gel polish, due to which it can last a month. Liquid stones are polymer particles that are made from gel or varnish.
To perform this technique you need:
– foil for manicure;
– UV lamp for drying gel polish. It will save time and make your manicure brighter;
– gel polishes;
– additional accessories for nails.
First you need to make a mold. Then you should do a French manicure using foil. The next step is to apply the patterns; after the design is completed, the nails need to be dried under a UV lamp. Then you need to choose a place to apply liquid stone.
Tights technique
This manicure option is done in classic colors. Pastel shades of beige, pink or lilac are acceptable, but the main color will always be black. The pattern is made in the form of an openwork mesh, similar to tights. This design is suitable for both office and romantic style. This type of manicure can be done using stickers, and for a more professional option, it is done using a thin brush, gel paint and fixer. At the end of the procedure, the resulting result is dried under a UV lamp.
