If you are tired of the uniformity of the varnish palette, you can make a rather interesting manicure with the help of a sponge that will shine with bright motifs on the arms of any fashionista. What will turn out in the end will look original and cause admiration for friends. A simple manicure at home can be done with a sponge and paints. It will be perfectly combined with any clothes, especially since the colors can be chosen for the outfit. This design of nails can be done not only on the hands, but also on the legs, of course, with a certain practice, as it may not work out perfectly right away. To create such an original drawing you will need: two or more colors of paint, nail polish, sponge, file and nail polish remover.
Application Technique
First, itβs worth doing a hygienic manicure so that the skin around the nails looks aesthetically pleasing. After all, no nail polish, and even more so with a design, will not look perfect if the cuticles are not processed. After the procedure is completed, you can begin to do manicure with a sponge. Apply a small amount of paints of different colors next to each other in strips on the file, and you can shade them together with an orange stick - so you can achieve a smooth color transition. Until the paint has dried, you need to dip in the tracks with a sponge
and make an imprint on the nail, varnished in the main color. If the paint gets on the skin, then this is not scary, since it is easy to remove the varnish remover. After you have applied the prints to all the nails, and the varnish has dried, the resulting pattern must be coated with a protective varnish, and then remove everything that is imprinted from the skin. Such a manicure, made with the help of a sponge on the nails, lasts from 2-3 days, depending on the hardness of the nail plate: the stronger your nails, the longer the coating will not be erased.
But not only varnish and paints can make such a design of nails. With the help of light-cured gel varnishes, you can make the same interesting ornament. This applies to both conventional and polyurethane color gels. The only thing to consider is that when doing manicure with a gel polish using a sponge, it is necessary to apply the pattern not to all nails at once, but to cover them one at a time so that the effect of the dots does not disappear when the gel spreads. The gel coating will last much longer than the varnish, but during correction it will either have to be cut off or soaked in a special solution. If suddenly you really want to do such a manicure, but not at hand
no acrylics or gels, you can use ordinary gouache. There are some drawbacks to using this method: the coating will not be resistant, and the paint will have to be diluted with water to the desired consistency in order to get the transition effect.
Manicure at home? Easy!
Itβs not necessary to go to the beauty salon for the original nail design - you can do it yourself at home with a light manicure, you just need to practice a little. Do not confine yourself to the effect of stamping with sponge: adding glitter or additional painting can turn a simple design into a very interesting abstraction, and the use of gold leaf will create a unique design that is now in fashion.
