Currently, there are a lot of ideas for creative and stylish design of nails. One of the bright and original types of manicure is the so-called "newspaper" manicure. He was invented in France by a young but rather ambitious cosmetologist girl who dreamed of universal recognition and world fame. When a column was published about her in a local little-known newspaper, she decided to make her clients a manicure using pieces of the same publication. That is how she glorified not only herself, but that same newspaper.
Many fashionistas will agree that the "newspaper" manicure looks unusual, bold and attractive. Each nail will have a different original and unique pattern.
Where to make a manicure?
Such an unusual and beautiful design of nails will take a little time. You just need a little imagination and a desire to be extraordinary and stand out from the "gray" mass. However, many nail art masters offer their manicure services at home, but agree that it will be more pleasant to create such a creation itself, it is quite easy and simple. So let's get started:
1. Prepare the necessary materials: glossy magazine or newspaper, acetone, varnishes (color and colorless).
2. First of all, remove the layer of old varnish from the surface of the nail plate with a cotton swab slightly moistened with acetone or nail polish remover.
3. Give your nails the desired shape. It should be noted that the "newspaper" manicure looks perfect on any form of nails.
4. Carefully push the cuticle with a wooden stick and smooth the surface of the nail with a nail file specially designed for this purpose. In no case do not use a coarse-abrasive nail file for processing, otherwise you risk damaging the nail plate.
5. Cut out 10 small squares from the selected print, taking into account that each of them should be slightly larger than your nail. This is necessary in order to easily remove pieces of a newspaper or magazine from its surface.
6. Apply colored varnish to the nail plate, without waiting for it to dry completely, attach a square of the newspaper moistened with a drop of acetone, and press firmly on the nail. Try not to move the paper, otherwise the printing ink may smear all over the nail. Wait until it dries completely, then carefully remove the rest of the newspaper from the nail and cover with a layer of colorless varnish, which will serve as a kind of fixative.
There is also another option for such a manicure. For its implementation, it is necessary to stock up on the following materials: colorless varnish, alcohol or acetone, as well as pieces of newspaper. The main difference of this method is that as a base (main) coating is used not colored, but transparent varnish. All of the above steps are absolutely identical for both the first and second options.
