Design Ideas
Before creating such a manicure, you must first decide on the colors whose images you want to cover your nails. It should be repelled by their own preferences or symbolism. For example, an azalea is considered to be a symbol of femininity, an anemone symbolizes sincerity and straightforwardness, and cornflower - elegance and simplicity. It is also important to build on the overall image, in particular, on its color gamut. In order to give an image of charm, you can decorate a manicure with sunflowers, to create a sweet and playful mood, draw chamomiles, for a noble manicure choose roses.
Since the French manicure with a floral print is quite a popular option today for the design of nails, which is in demand among girls and women of any age, nail service masters offer many options for its execution. Consider the most interesting of them.
- Small flowers. This embodiment of the French manicure is very popular among brides. Girls prefer the design of nails in the style of a classic jacket (using the basic color scheme), which is complemented by small neat flowers. And they are applied under the accent strip located at the end of the nail. Most often, the flowers also perform in white (to match the wedding dress).
If you like the general idea, but the color palette seems too boring, you can experiment with colors and shades, painting your own nails according to your taste.
- Bright and catchy. Girls who choose this design are not afraid to be stylish and extravagant. This option involves the image of a large bright flower over the entire area of the nail. To perform such a manicure, you can use flashy tones for the base and print, or contrasting ones: the base is in pastel shades, the flower is in saturated.
- Mirror reflection. In this design, flowers are a reflection of the accent strip on the end of the nail and are drawn at its base. The strip and flowers can be in the same color or in opposite in contrast.
- Flowers as an accent. In this case, the color images are used instead of the accent strip on the end of the nail. Drawings can be applied in one or several shades.
How to perform at home?
Despite the fact that any beauty salon or a separately working nail service technician will offer you to do a French manicure in its various manifestations, you can make a little of your own efforts and decorate your nails yourself. First you need to fully prepare your nails. To do this, they need to be freed from the outdated design (if it exists), then make a manicure, grooming procedures (cuticle treatment) and cover the nail plate base.
After that, the main area of the nail should be painted in the selected color. Then put on the tip of the nail accent line inherent in the French manicure. There are two ways to do this:
- by hand (however, only experienced professionals possess this skill);
- using stencils (in many cosmetic stores you can buy special stickers, using which you can draw a clear and neat line).
Only then should proceed to the direct creation of flowers. You can arrange them in a strictly defined order or arbitrarily. Floral print can be performed in the tone of the base or be contrasted. In order to draw flowers, you can use improvised means - a toothpick or a needle.
For example, if you want to create an abstract image of a flower, then you should drop varnish on the nail, and then use a pointed object to give it the shape of improvised petals.
Flowers can draw and more carefully and realistic. To do this, use stencils that can be purchased at almost any specialty store. Another option to create a flower - the translation of the picture. To do this, you can use various options: stickers on water or sticky basis, foil, etc. Flowers may differ in texture from the main coating. Matte prints on the glossy surface of the nail and vice versa look very impressive.
Various colors can be used for decorating colors, such as rhinestones, glitter, small crystals, and sparkles. They can be used both to create an ornament in full, and for its partial decoration.
After the manicure is finished and the lacquer is completely dry, do not forget to apply a top coat that will ensure a longer process of wear.
Thus, it is possible to perform a stylish, modern and very effective service jacket with flowers not only in expensive beauty salons, but independently, without resorting to the services of professionals. Do not be afraid to experiment, then the result will not disappoint you!
