Red color has amazing characteristics, sometimes contradictory, but generally quite positive. The color of passion and love, expression and impulsivity, it is able to give brightness, gloss, fashionability. He can give the image that accented expressiveness, which by the way falls in the reflection of small details.
Women of this shade category attach great importance in their appearance, from lipstick to shoes and manicure. The tonal diversity inherent in this color category is so great that red to red can be a significant discord. From delicate coral to deep opal, from warm terracotta to cold scarlet, the tint palette of red amazes with its variety and abundance of all kinds of tonal solutions. That is why today this color is actively used in manicure when modeling a wide variety of designs for nails. And not the last role in this vein is played by a manicure with red gel polish and sparkles on the nails. Which of its varieties will be most relevant in the coming season?
French manicure
Already an entrenched option in any nail design is considered a classic jacket. Reflecting the preferences of most women of various age categories and various professional and social statuses, he continues to occupy a leading position in the top of the most popular options for nail decoration. Expressive and bright French manicure, the basis of smiles of which is based on red gel polish with sparkles (photo below), perfectly combines with a natural transparent base of nude color.
In this case, the spangles can be large-caliber or small, can be dispersed in the smile area or placed on the main area of the nail bed - where the beige base is located in a natural color. For example, the red gel polish in the smile zone can be isolated, and the beige base can be trimmed with large white spangles randomly scattered throughout the nail plate. This composition does not look defiant, but quite attractive.
Moon manicure
The reverse, or as it is also called, a moon manicure, goes well with a duet of red and silver. The main background is modeled with red gel polish. Sequins can decorate the area of the lunula (the basal part of the marigold). At the same time, at the given stage of the development of nail aesthetics and manicure art, the elongated triangular luggage is considered the most preferred technique for designing a lunar manicure. That is, silver spangles do not outline the rounded region of the hole, but fill a slightly more extensive space in the form of a triangle (or pyramid). In the end, you can get a noble exquisite design with red gel polish and silver-colored sparkles that flicker in the light of the evening spotlights with iridescent basal triangles. The effect is amazing.
Matte manicure
Red matte manicure has amazing magic . Its velvet surface gives the color even greater depth and expression. And if you supplement the red matte gel polish with a curve of the shiny line, then it will add a twist to the manicure and will especially emphasize the aesthetics of the matte texture. Many masters in this regard are experimenting with a combination of gloss on some nails and a mat on others. This is especially true when using such shades of dark red as Marsala and Bordeaux. This variation of the nail decoration looks not only attractive, but also very feminine.
Brocade manicure
Particularly noteworthy is such a version of the marigold frame as the brocade veil. The construction of this design is often based on two contrasting colors. In this case, it is appropriate to use a bright red basis as a base and saturated coal-black anthracite as a brocade layout of lace patterns decorated on top of the basis. Framing some threads of the pattern with flickering small sparkles will complement the manicure decoration and give it even more luxury, eccentricity, elegance.
It is important to note that such a manicure, of course, does not quite fit into the daily life of a teacher of an educational institution or a person who carries out his labor activity in conditions of observing a strict dress code. But for an evening promenade in society or on the occasion of a special celebration in combination with an appropriate outfit, such a manicure will come in handy. The fashionability of red manicure will be emphasized by the corresponding details of accessories, jewelry or shoes.
Red shimmer
For those who do not like to visit salon masters and are used to decorating their nails at home, the best option would be to use a shimmer to decorate the nail plate. Like mother of pearl, a shimmer is distinguished by the smallest caliber of its microparticles. Design with red gel polish and sparkles in its composition in the form of a shimmer is always simple, but very aesthetic. Indeed, such a material is applied to the nail plate as the most ordinary varnish (if the base is gel, then an ultraviolet lamp is needed to polymerize the gel on the nail). In itself, gel polish with a shimmer is self-sufficient and looks quite complete in its separate form. But if you want to add a twist to the design, you can perform several floral touches with white paints on the marigold, for example, the ring finger. It is important to remember that the main feature of sophisticated manicure is minimalism. Therefore, do not clutter the surface of the nail bed with an excessive abundance of drawings.
Red glitter
If we compare the shimmer with glitter, we can note a more enlarged format of the spangles of the latter. Indeed, glitter is shredded pieces of the finest metallized foil, which are formed in the form of circles, hexagons, triangles and other geometric shapes that are barely distinguishable in their entirety. If we talk about gel polish with sparkles (a photo of a red manicure with glitter is presented below), it is worth noting that it looks a little more impressive than a shimmer. Due to the larger granularity of the sparkles, the play of color and the flickering of the glare of such a decorative material is reflected with greater brightness and expressiveness. That is why so many representatives of the beautiful half like to use it as a decoration on their nails.
A chic and truly amazing design in this vein is considered to be red glitter imposed under a transparent varnish on a deep dark scarlet base.
Red Kamifubiki
An equally interesting option is the use of kamifubiks in the red shiny design. A kind of manicure confetti, invented by representatives of the Japanese race, today is gaining popularity among the younger generation of the fair half. Kamifubiki come in different shapes and sizes. It can be hearts, rhombuses, cubes, circles, triangles, hexagons, stars and many, many other possible shaped versions.
One of the most original options with the use of red in a manicure is the laying of red kamifubiks under a transparent gel on a dark base. Under the thickness of a transparent gel, manicure confetti plays with glare much more expressively, it gives the impression of a three-dimensional spatial display on the nails, which cannot but attract the admiring attention of others.
Red holographic
Another eccentric, but fairly representative version of the design simulation using red and sparkles is holographic. A breathtaking game of glare in a non-standard configuration of barely noticeable details of the pattern cannot but magnetize with its luxurious appearance. Dark gel polish with red sparkles in the form of a flickering hologram looks amazing on both short and long nails. Special preference is often given to it by the owners of an elongated pointed nail plate or “pointe” shape of nails. To some, this color may seem a little daring, but it is by no means vulgar.
Red mica
Mica lovers also resort to the actual combination of red and black. Why? Because on a deep coal shade, red looks even more bewitching, especially if it is the flickering shine of scarlet mica. In order not to oversaturate the already expressive color, it is preferable to wear such a design on the shortened length of the square-shaped nails. Besides the fact that some people like to use the effect of flickering mica on a velvet mat, it is more correct to carry out such a design in a glossy texture from the point of view of aesthetic correctness. For this, mica is laid out under the thickness of a transparent gel.
Ombre
For several consecutive seasons, the gradient transition from one bright shade to another has not lost its relevance. Not spared fashion trends and red manicure with sparkles. The photo of the gel emerging from blue-black and neatly transforming into deep scarlet amazes with the beauty of saturated pigment. And in order to soften the somewhat aggressive color of such nails, it will be appropriate to distribute a barely noticeable silver nacre along the entire length of the nail plate. The smallest microparticles of silver sequins not only ennoble manicure, they will give it a soft and at the same time elegant aristocracy. It is important to maintain the balance of the color palette and combine the combined shades in one tonal group: cold black and cold red or warm black and warm red, but then it is better to use sparkles not in silver, but in gold nacre.
Red pearl manicure
No less luxurious and fashionable version of the frame of the elongated nail plate in red and white manicure with gel polish and sparkles of snow-white silver is the design “champagne splashes”. Incredibly beautiful looks on the dark glossy main coating of nails, made in the form of a red-plum plain, a scattering of the smallest drops of snow-white sparkles imitating light drops of foamy champagne. Such a design not only looks incredibly expensive, but it is also elegant in its own way. It is important to note that here, preference for glittering nails is given exclusively in small quantities. The best option is to decorate with them pure fingernails of the ring fingers. It is worth remembering that such an expressive color of the main background should not be overloaded with the mass filling of sparkles and rhinestones. Indeed, it is possible to reduce the cost of the image as a whole by reflecting the tasteless combination of deep pigment and a huge number of nakalypisty elements of nail decoration. A little bit of everything, and you will not be mistaken.
Red with gold
This tint combination in the world of nail aesthetics and manicure has long been recognized as one of the most successful and beautiful. Two original and in their own way self-sufficient colors, correctly combined in a single composition, cause a storm of admiration and delight from others. This theme is especially relevant in the combination of red manicure with gold sparkles. Moreover, there are a lot of versions for designing a red-gold design. You can stain all nails with pearl red, and highlight one or two of them with a golden mirror effect. You can decorate the nails covered with red gel polish with a shiny foil openwork mesh. And you can use large decorative spangles and, against the background of the rest painted in scarlet nails, highlight one of them with a gold scaly decoration - the effect will amaze with its eccentricity and beauty.
