In the design of nails, the white jacket never becomes obsolete. He meets with many women in the office, accompanies the bride on the most important day of his life, he is indispensable for special occasions. Often do this design when they go on vacation. Nails with him look perfect: well-groomed and neat.
The thickness of the white strip is affected by the mode. She dictates the length of the nail bed - pink varnish in French manicure. It used to be a good form to make a transparent pink haze and apply a white strip to the natural free edge of the nail. Now they often make the extension of the nail bed with camouflage gel polish, and the shape of the white tip is no longer just a strip.
This is a corner, and a wavy edge, and a gradient, and lace ... But as before, the name “french” remains for all designs, it only gets an addition: a french gel-varnish, a french coat with a pearl rub. What white french with design offers 2018?
What nail stylists offer
This year, French manicure as a whole is approaching the classic version. The trend of the present - the emphasis and the use of modern means in design.
- The classic white jacket is decorated with accent nail art - on an unnamed nail, completely white, a pattern is drawn on its entire surface. You can focus on two fingers. It is suitable for wedding manicure.
- Decoration with rhinestones of different sizes and colors, standing as a solid line. Stylists offer to decorate the middle finger with rhinestones in the zone of the hole, and draw a rose on the ring.
- Stylish fan french. This is a pastel base of different colors and a white tip.
- Full-slider jacket. The sticker covers the entire nail, and this opens up endless possibilities for design. But in order to combine such a bright accent with French manicure, only one fingernail is filled with a slider.
- Minimalism. Small white stripes on a nude background. Accent - highlighted hole on a white background, emphasized by a strict bow.
- Lace. This can be a patterned white tip or the entire nail plate covered with lace. The lace is smooth, voluminous, velvet, matte and glossy. It is performed using stamping techniques or volumetric monograms.
Fan french
This year, French manicure welcomes pastel color. Only this is not a smile, but the nail bed itself. At the tip of the nail is a white jacket. In the photo of 2018, it is proposed to add another fashionable nuance - pearl rub. From it, the gray tone acquires a magical radiance, as it begins to reflect light in a gentle pastel color.
The bluish smoky tone for the fan jacket really became a godsend. This color goes well with cold pastel pink tones, therefore, in the proposals of stylists - compositions of these colors for the implementation of the nail bed. In all cases, the white tip remains, but the base itself is different: two nails are gray, three are pink. The zone of the hole is distinguished not in white, but in a companion tone: pink is placed on two gray fingers.
To turn this manicure into a festive one, the design uses rhinestones of blue, pink, white and silver broths. They are put on pink nails, and gray make matte.
Manicure Design Emphasis
Highlighting one or two fingers with a catchy design is called an accent. The name comes from the impression that a manicure makes. A marigold filled with design more than the rest takes attention. French options this year actively use this method. Emphasis can be put on rhinestones, painting, color, texture, the shape of a smile or hole.
Often, on such a nail, they do not draw the white tip at all, making the entire nail white and using it for design. You can leave a hole of natural color on it. Wells are no longer highlighted in white - it's boring. In 2018, they are filled with rhinestones, and they can be of different sizes and shapes, different colors, but in harmony with the main range of manicure.
Cheerful White Fan French
This design can be interestingly beaten by placing emphasis on the ring fingers. The introduction of another pastel color makes the manicure from strict to cheerful. So, you can wear it in summer - pastel tones perfectly set off tanned skin, and the white tip creates a feeling of cleanliness.
If you look at the photo, the white jacket on the nails also changes shape on the accent fingers: it is made with a corner. Although this tip is larger, it still looks harmonious - the rest of the tones echo the smile line on this finger. A very important detail: the underline of the hole with a thin dividing white line. Without it, the design will not look neat. Pastel tones are always separated from each other so that the visual effect of mixing the tones is not obtained.
Full Slider French
These are stickers for the entire nail. Usually they are glued to the nameless nail, like accent nail art. But you can use a large sticker for two adjacent nails. For example, middle and nameless. It is glued so that when you close your fingers, you get a picture. Kits always have larger thumbnails. The sticker is cut into two equal parts and placed on adjacent fingers. You can complement this manicure with a white jacket.
Bright sliders, representing poppies, roses, colorful paintings, go well with French manicure. These are large drawings with small details, therefore it is better to embody such ideas in a slider design.
Black and white french
The combination of black and white is very much in demand in 2018. Couturier experiments with black dresses for the bride allowed this classic in clothes neutral color into the wedding manicure. Black cashmere in the groom's tuxedo, black patent leather ladies and ladies clutches, voluminous bride dress and stylish black and white manicure. It is like collecting the English beau monde at the races.
If at the time when the film “My Fair Lady” was shot with Audrey Hepburn, there was a black varnish, chess manicure would be perfect. In the photo - a white jacket and stylish black designs. Very feminine, but with character. This design can be done with the help of stamping or sliders, but you can also draw abstract dots.
Office jacket
When there is a strict dress code at work, only French is allowed. Moreover, modern options with a colored tip are unacceptable. What to do? Is it possible to wear the same design for years, changing to a bright color only on vacation? In no case! For this, designers work, creating options for an office jacket.
First of all, the white tip itself can be of the original form: a corner, a carved line, the usual semicircular, but with an unpainted heart on a white background. You can give it a velvet or velor structure, even just a matte tone, according to which to make brilliant patterns.
Wedding french
For a solemn event, especially for a wedding, modest office designs will not work. It is expected that the manicure will be festive - one that is not used for every day. If the jacket is chosen as the main pattern, then the nails are decorated with rhinestones and accents are made on four fingers - usually the middle and nameless on each hand, but you can also slightly deviate from the rule: emphasize the middle and the nameless on one hand and the average on the other and forefinger.
This is especially true for the bride, who demonstrates the ring: nail design should not overshadow the symbol of marital fidelity. They take a lot of pictures at the wedding, and not only the nails of the bride fall into the frame. Looking at the photo from the celebration, it will be a shame to hear comments that someone has a sloppy manicure.
Guests can also use a nail design with a white French pattern (photo of examples in the article). This is a hand-painted painting in which floral motifs can be used.
Rhinestones and French
This year's maximum style is combined with a fan jacket and rhinestones. The advantage of this choice is the ability to choose the shade of the background to the clothes, than to combine the entire ensemble into a single image. Rhinestones cover one of the nails, leaving a selected hole. Now it’s fashionable to leave open a natural nail in small details. If the color of the nail plate allows, you can use this technique. If you don’t like the natural color, use camouflage.
Rhinestones for this design are selected in the same color and size. Both medium Swarovski crystals and ordinary glass ones will do. It’s not they who pay attention to themselves, but their combination in continuous application on one accent nail. Of course, the nails should be adjacent.
The holes of both are identical, they are highlighted only on accent fingers by the background of a companion. On a white background, do not bring rhinestones to the end of the nail, even if they are short. Left white tip creates airiness and lightness in design. The bed of the remaining nails is lengthened in a camouflage tone, and the smile itself is small.
Minimalism is beautiful
High white smiles are a thing of the past. Now it’s fashionable to increase not the free edge of the nail, but the pink bed. This gives the nails a healthy and harmonious look. The white strip may be narrow, not attracting attention. But such nails would look boring without a fashionable accent. The nameless nail is made in the style of a moon manicure, but this time the classic colors have changed places: the bed is white, the hole is pink. Holes can be emphasized with rhinestones, laying them out in the form of a bow, or a man’s bow tie.
A white jacket with a picture, a photo of which is shown here, is suitable for any dress code. But if you are not strict, you can simply draw a black bow and make it velvet.
Classic lace - quick and easy
Lace is combined with white and pink colors. They ennoble and create an airy image. Drawn or glued lace is included in many manicure designs.
Nails with a white French pattern are one such option. How to make lace varnishes using stamping is simple and fast? This is shown in the video.
Despite the fact that it uses varnish technique, stamping is also done on gel polish. To do this, remove the dispersion layer, stamp the stamp and cover the work with top gel.
The paint used in stamping dries very quickly. Therefore, you need to act with clear confident movements. If the desired color is not available, you can use nail polish. True, it requires even more accurate application. Since varnish is not paint, it takes a little longer to dry.
Royal french
To feel like a queen, you need to make a royal french. In fact, the style of the reigning persons is subject to other rules, they can not wear long nails and bright varnish. This is a fashionable manicure with a picture of the crown, which is liked by all women. This option is especially suitable for graduates, queens of the ball, as well as their mothers.
There are many components to performing a crown. They produce sliders, volumetric stickers and rubber decorations for nails. There are metal crowns that are used in aquarium design. But the most elegant way will be the execution of the design by the master.
The photo shows a design reminiscent of the crown of the Russian Empire. It is made of small rhinestones and silver broths. Rhinestones are put on white gel polish with glue, and then everything is carefully filled with top gel to close the glue. If this is not done, white spots from glue will appear and spoil all the work.
There is another way: on the finished gel polish, put the line on top, put the broths and polymerize. It is better to carry out the design, gradually polymerizing the line of the broth. It will turn out more accurately. In addition, there are very thick tops for such occasions that can hold a round shape. The bouillon is slightly recessed into such material - this is the innovation of 2018.
How to make a white French nail design at home
On sale there are sets of varnishes for performing French manicure. But many were disappointed in them after the purchase: the pink haze does not go perfectly smooth and does not dry well. The white strip does not work even, even if you use stencils. White varnish does not stain the first time, the line is obtained with stains. To forget about these problems forever, there is a video on which it is shown how to make a perfect jacket with varnish.
The secrets of this method:
- White varnish is applied twice with intermediate drying.
- The brush is held perpendicular to the smile line.
- Corners are drawn with a brush during correction.
This method of drawing a smile is used in Korea, it helps to quickly draw a smile with a gel. Excesses are removed with a brush moistened with alcohol. In order not to harm the nails, it is better not to use nail polish remover when adjusting with a brush in varnish technology. Lacquer coils from it, there may be ugly white crumbs on the edges of the smile. It is better to use a liquid to dilute the varnish.
Correction removes the base layer, so the wizard does not apply it in the video. But it is allowed to apply it in preparation for making a smile. After it dries, you can apply haze on the entire nail, directly on the white varnish. Then it will become a little creamy, and the bed of the nail will acquire a beautiful healthy color. Try to make a white jacket, and photos and videos will help with this.
