"Mirror" manicure gel polish: new design and tips for creating it

Mirror manicure is one of the novelties of this season. Gel polish with a reflective effect will help to be in trend. It looks great both independently and as part of the decor.

Modern manicure with a mirror surface performed using several types of coatings:

• metallic varnish;
• varnish with shimmering shine;
• glitter;
• foil;
• gel varnish chameleon;
• rub.

The most spectacular and high quality is gel polish. It includes particles that best reflect light. In such a manicure, everything is really visible, as in a mirror.

The coating is combined with any style of clothing and gives the image the most modern look. Nails complement the chrome handbag and shoes.

• The first thing you need to pay attention to when performing this type of manicure is the quality of gel polish. Brand manufacturers, as a rule, offer a good product with the necessary consistency, which should be sufficiently liquid. Thick varnish will dry for a long time, so its even application will become difficult.
• It is important and proper storage of such a composition. The bottle itself is matte. This protects the product from direct sunlight, from which the varnish can exfoliate. Important and shelf life. Of course, expired gel polish is not put on the shelves. But if the date of use comes to an end, it is better not to use this composition either. With a worn date on the package, shelf life can be determined with the help of smell. A poor-quality product will have a sour smell.
• Brush has a great influence on the coating. The hairs in it should be located often (thick brush), tight to each other. In the absence of these criteria, it is better to use a separate accessory of suitable quality.

Mirror lacquer coating requires the most smooth and smooth working surface. This type of manicure shows minimal irregularities and flaws in the shape of the nail. Therefore, the implementation of such a manicure must begin with careful processing.

The shape of the nail can be any. The main thing is that all fingers should be filed equally. A sanding file is an obligatory attribute here, since after removing the cuticle at home, small irregularities often remain on the surface of the nail. They must be removed.

Before you start painting, it is better to immediately prepare everything you need:

• ultraviolet lamp;
• degreasing fluid;
• gel polish base;
• color gel polish with reflective particles;
• topcoat;
• polyester napkins (lint-free).

After a thorough surface treatment, it is necessary to remove the remains of nail dust from grinding. This is done with a degreaser. Then the nails should dry. A base coat is applied to the finished surface, which will help to maximize the nail plate. The base must be dried well under a UV lamp.

Then you can cover the nail with colored gel. It is applied in one layer and dried under the lamp for up to 3 minutes. For a perfect shimmering shine, a second layer is also applied. After the nails are placed again under the lamp. And, finally, you can apply the finish coating and thoroughly dry the manicure.So he will hold on for a long time.

To obtain a mirror shine well fit and rub. It is a fine powder with metal particles, which, when applied, penetrate the varnish and give it an amazing soft shimmer. This method is also good because the choice of the basic color of the manicure is simplified.

The most fashionable trends of this style are mirror-design nail designs with a metallic effect. The most advantageous on the nails look silver and gold coating. These colors are universal, as they can not only make up an independent composition, but also perfectly complement each other, as well as other shades.

Fully gold coating best emphasizes the tan, because it is used mainly to create a summer manicure. Silver metallic would be a fitting addition to the bow in any season.

This type of coverage creates unique combinations with other types of manicure. So, it is actively used as a bright detail of the lunar design. A small mirror semicircle at the base of the nail or on its tip immediately attracts attention. But when decorating it is necessary to remember that metallic is better suited to the cold colors, and gold is better to complement warm colors.

Trend geometric style provides a large field for creative activity. Here you can combine not only the mirror coating with ordinary varnish, but also add matte textures. Such geometric shapes on a radiant surface (if the mirror coating is chosen as the basis) look impressive and unusual.

Also will be effectively seen and any ornate patterns applied to the mirror coating. An excellent combination with a classic touch is the additional decoration of one or two fingers.

Unusually and concisely complement even a strict office image french with a gold or silver strip on the tip, which will become a stylish and simple decoration of the image.

But the design decisions of specialists in nail art include not only the most reflective surfaces. Creating a moderate shine with a small amount of rubbing is also welcome. The most beneficial such a gentle glow looks when painting not the whole hand in metallic, but only a few nails. The remaining fingers can be decorated with a different color, and also complemented with rhinestones, if the image is evening.

However, as in most combinations, in the case of making various additions to the decor of other styles, it is necessary to observe moderation. A manicure should not resemble a Christmas tree decorated randomly at all.
