French manicure has long been a classic of nail art. Both brides and business women are preferred. But everything is changing and an unusual jacket has come into fashion - multi-colored, with patterns, using rhinestones and other decorative elements. You will learn more about its varieties later in the article, and photos of interesting manicures will demonstrate their beauty.
Simple change
To make an unusual jacket, it’s enough to simply abandon the usual shades - flesh or pink in combination with white.
Even catchy, saturated colors on the “smile” line along with a neutral nail base can look interesting, but at the same time be appropriate in everyday life. If you complement them with appropriate accents in makeup and clothing, the image will be boring, but not too colorful.
And fans of bright colors can no longer suffer with the choice of the most beautiful color for manicure. To make an unusual jacket, you just need to paint the entire nail with a neutral beige shade, and paint the tips of the nails as you wish.
Bright, pastel or neon - all colors are good. Their variegation will be balanced by a calm beige base.
If you have the basic skills of nail art, then decorate the smile line with white peas, which can easily be done with a special manicure tool with a round ball on the tip. Using a very thin brush, draw a line between the different colors with glitter varnish to complement this unusual jacket. A photo of what you should get is presented below.
Special finger
It is very easy to add a twist to even a simple manicure, if one or two nails are painted differently than the rest.
The simplest, but very effective solution is to flip the jacket on two fingers. It looks like below.
Another simple option is to paint one nail with the color that marks the “smile” line. Lacquer with large sequins gives a special elegance to this nail art.
In anticipation of the winter holidays, you can give preference to varnishes of bright, saturated colors. Large sparkles and snowflakes only emphasize the seasonal mood.
Fashion effect
A combination of ordinary varnish and varnish with a metallic tint looks catchy. For example, glossy burgundy color interestingly harmonizes with silver.
Golden tips make a simple manicure stylish and sophisticated. They will look equally good with bright rich colors and neutral ones.
The combination of metallic and pearlescent or matte varnish is an easy way to create a fashionable unusual jacket on nails. A photo of one of the options for this manicure is presented below.
Popular gradient
Smooth transitions of colors became fashionable in everything - from clothing and interior design to makeup and nail art. A standard French manicure implies sharp lines, but an unusual jacket may depart from this rule. The slightly blurred contrasting tip of the nail and the smooth mixing of two different shades looks gentle and original.
But the gradient can be done not only within one nail, but also immediately on all fingers. Below is an example of how this might look.
This option is a little more complicated, because the gradient area is smaller and it should be very neat.
Elegant clarity
If you still prefer the severity of the lines, then there are several options for how to diversify the French.
For example, you can make the "smile" strictly rectangular, and between the two contrasting colors of the varnish make a thin strip of the third color.
Or even “flip” a manicure. For example, place the “smile” line at the base of the nail and side.
For real craftswomen
To make an unusual jacket with nails with a picture, you need to have good nail art skills or go to a beauty salon. But the result is worth the effort.
Let's start from simple to complex. For example, these manicures look very neat, but at the same time flirty and playful.
And to make them is not so difficult, since bows are ready-made
stickers for nails. Of course, you need to practice their application, but after you learn this technique, making patterned manicure will be very simple.
In the same way, white butterflies were made against the background of a jacket with red tips. Stickers can be replaced with a stamping plate.
Delicate floral patterns are great companions for French manicure. It can be either individual flowers along the edges of the nail plate, or small roses that form the line of a “smile”.
You can limit yourself to one large complex pattern on the ring finger. And small thin patterns on the remaining nails will complete this unusual jacket. Photos (this manicure also fits perfectly on short nails) you can see below.
For short nails it can be difficult to choose a pattern that would harmoniously look in a small area. But there are still many interesting options for this situation. For example, in this manicure the line of “smile” is formed by thin multi-colored lines that look quite bright, but do not create the impression of compression and congestion.
Small rhinestones only complement this beautiful abstract pattern.
The following example, although it seems simple, but requires a very neat and delicate work.
You need to try to get a blurry
floral pattern, and not just a chaotic pile of color spots. But if you do it right, you will get a very gentle unusual jacket with a slight echo of
lavender fields and gardens of Provence.
