The beauty of female hands largely depends on their grooming. Insufficient moisture of the skin affects the presence of age-related wrinkles, work with gloves prevents quick natural wear of the skin of the hands, and maintaining the manicure and keeping the nails clean and in a proper aesthetic appearance ennobles the female hands as a whole.
Today it is fashionable to decorate nails with various designs. The use of gel polish and shellac is gaining momentum and occupies a leading position in the modern nail industry. It is not surprising that every second current girl uses the services of a master of nail service precisely with the aim of creating on her fingers the next mini-masterpiece with an original and attractive nail design. And black-and-white manicure with a jacket is especially popular in this vein. On short square nails, on an elongated almond-shaped nail plate or on a new-fashioned “pointe” shape, this luxurious play of colors with elements of classical design always looks interesting, unusual, attractive and very organic.
However, what versions of such a non-standard "Frenchman" are most relevant at the present stage? And what options for black and white manicure with a jacket conquer modern contemporaries with the greatest degree of enthusiasm?
Contrast manicure
A list of the most popular versions of designing marigolds in the style of black and white French manicure opens today with a typical simple model of the game in contrast. What does she suggest? This kind of nail design involves staining the nail bed along its entire length with saturated black color with further modeling of a snow-white smile at the level of the cut line. This design technique has been loved by many due to its simplicity and originality in a single ensemble. Such work can be done by a girl even at home - to create such a manicure does not require the possession of specific artistic skills. That is why many choose him.
It is important to note that this design can be called universal, since it can easily decorate any form of nails, from short square to elongated pointed. Moreover, you can experiment with textures. For example, such a light nail art is gorgeous in both gloss and matte finish. In turn, this allows you to use it on a special solemn occasion or wear it as a daily discreet manicure. If you want to add a certain elegance to the design, you can supplement it with a dotted embedding of rhinestones on one or several nails in the zone of demarcation of two contrasting shades. Why pointy? Because the abundance of rhinestones in this case is not particularly appropriate, because it will draw all attention to yourself, and the meaning of this design of nails is precisely the emphasis on the game of two opposite colors.
French with a belt
To slightly dilute the depth of the saturated anthracite color of the base in black and white manicure-french will allow the usual isolation of the base shade in its natural pristine form - a transparent nude gel polish. The emphasis here will be shifted precisely to the smile zone, since it will be formalized in the so-called bicolor. It is noteworthy that it is a black smile that looks more aesthetically and harmoniously on the nails of the representatives of the beautiful half, with a subtle subtle white canton that delimits the area of contact between black and natural color gel. The formation of a similar plan for a snow-white rim on black smiles looks quite original and tasteful.
It is worth noting that the color of a smile and the so-called girdle can be alternated. It may well be the usual snow-white smiles with a black edging, here the choice already depends on the desires and preferences of the girl herself. Nail design with a black and white french jacket in such an interpretation is suitable even for those representatives of the fair half whose capabilities are limited by observing a specific dress code - it is quite laid-back and easy to read.
Corner "Frenchman"
In cases of modeling the jacket on short square nails, the best option may be modeling not the usual rounded line of a smile, but somewhat non-standard design. This refers to the use of a triangular shaped execution of the inner line of the intersection of the smile with the central main part. For example, such a design of a triangular smile in coal black can be diluted with dotted patches of snow-white paint along an acute-angled inner boundary line. You can create such points with the help of a dots or an ordinary toothpick. If desired, the nails of the middle and ring fingers can be supplemented with some unobtrusive soft pattern with the use of the same snow-white color. This, again, will allow you to slightly dilute the depth of black and give the manicure a certain softness.
Variable french
You don’t need to be particularly quick-witted or creative in order to guess that you can combine variable shades of black and white on different nails in the smile zone. It means that the fingernail, for example, of the index finger can be painted with a black border along the cut line, the middle one - white, the ring finger - again black, the little finger - again white, well, or in the opposite way, there isn’t much difference here. The point is that each individual nail should contrast slightly with the neighboring ones. Why lightly? Because the contrast will be embodied exclusively in the color orientation of smiles, not the nail plate as a whole.
Although you can experiment. To somewhat diversify such a manicure, an addition can be used as a decoration on the nail of the ring finger. You can paint it completely in one of the two mentioned colors and reflect in the opposite shade on its surface something like a plain pattern. This version of a black-and-white manicure-jacket with a picture looks quite extraordinary and elegant.
Diagonal french
An interesting and sophisticated decision to frame marigolds in the style of a game of contrasting colors is considered to be the modeling of a diagonal smile. In this case, two opposite shades can be unobtrusively separated by a line of silver sequins. It can be a thin strip of varnish with silver glitter or shimmer, or it can be a line of accented metallic. It is noteworthy that this variation of decoration is most suitable for owners of a pointed nail plate - on it a diagonal smile looks more expressively. A truly beautiful black and white manicure with a jacket in a similar decoration model can quite successfully decorate the girl's nails on the occasion of any celebration or social event. Here, it will not be superfluous to observe a single color style in manicure and clothing.
Combination of forward and reverse jacket
It's no secret that the moon manicure has become the favorite of many representatives of the fair half in a fairly short period of time. At some point, the degree of its actualization even surpassed the standard classical French. This, in fact, is not surprising - the luxury, subtlety and sophistication of a manicure made in such a style sometimes surprises and delights with its unsurpassed appearance.
So in the case of black and white manicure. Strict and seasoned at the same time, elegant and businesslike, the combination of direct and reverse jacket on one nail plate with contrasting white and black shades fully plays the role of its superiority. The nails painted in a coal-colored base are emphasized with special subtlety by the neat lines of a smile and a lunula in the root zone. Here it is very important to maintain precisely the subtlety of accent lines, since this is the whole point of forming a textured, elegant and aristocratic manicure. The thickened smile line will no longer look so harmonious with the snow-white neat hole, so you should still observe the established framework for artistic harmonization in modern manicure nail art.
White overlay on black
The ideas of black and white manicure are not limited to a separate reflection of separately black from white. An interesting version of the French manicure, in which the smile line is formed not by a continuous semicircular brushstroke, but by two separate strokes with paint of opposite colors. So, it resembles something like a triangular smile, which we have already discussed, but the whole point here is that in one smile on one nail, two strokes of overlap are found one on the other, while creating an excellent composition of warring colors in a single triangular a smile. At the same time, additional decoration of such a manicure with some plain drawing is not without meaning. For example, black and white butterflies on a transparent nude background will look as expressive as the two-color triangular smiles themselves. If imagination allows, one can also figure out something more aristocratic and noble. For example, you can complete such a manicure with inlaid stones made of imitated rhinestone-shaped frames. This design looks very impressive.
Snow-white veil
Many girls are wondering about how to make a black and white manicure a jacket so that it impresses with its elegance, solemnity and luxury. After all, usually such a color scheme is inherent in various geometric versions, since there it looks most advantageous. However, there is still a model of marigold frame that meets the stated requirements in this particular shade category - it is a snow-white delicate look of a smile on a blue-black glossy background. Such a manicure looks very expensive, fashionable and representative. No wonder that on the occasion of a special celebration, girls often pay attention to this particular version of the design of their nails.
Spectacular frame
Appearing relatively recently in the arena of manicure space, this design captivated the public with its sophistication and grace. Akin to moon French manicure, this version of the design of the nails perfectly reflects the beauty and expressiveness of the thinnest lines of the lunula zone and the lateral parts of the marigold. In deep anthracite over a snow-white base, this variation of the decor looks stunning, especially in addition with delicate monograms on the plates of the ring fingers of both hands.
Chess French
An avid fashionistas will never get tired of adherence to classical geometry on nails. The isolation of the natural base coat is perfectly diluted with the smile of a “Frenchman” made in the form of contrasting squares of a chessboard. In this case, one or two nails can be decorated with a pattern of figures of the king and queen. This composition looks amazing.
Custom decor
And finally, the most unusual and most thematic versions of the design of French manicure are presented by models of various artistic orientations. We are talking about the panda youth manicure, the practically childish version of the lacing sneakers design, the simple but no less popular snow-white Frenchman with black polka dots, and the stylish white-collar design. It all depends on the imagination and imagination of the master, as well as on the specific age or professional preferences of the client.
