The charming fuchsia manicure, which owes its name to the flower of the same name, has become incredibly popular among the fair sex of different ages. There are a huge variety of design options for nail plates made in this color scheme, so every young lady has an unusually wide choice.
Why is purple pink called fuchsia?
This tone got its name thanks to the shade of a very bright flower - fuchsia. Purple-pink tone is used in makeup, clothing, and interior design. Fuchsia manicure has also proven itself to be excellent, this is especially true for the 2022 season.
This nail is perfectly complemented with rhinestones, sequins, patterns, sparkles, and foil. You can make gradient combinations and even French patterns based on fuchsia.
Varieties of shades
The fuchsia flower has many different shades. When applying a manicure, you can also use the type of color that will best reveal your unique style and create a harmonious image.
Clean
Pure fuchsia is a rich purple-pink color with red undertones. It is very popular among celebrities, because such a bright color is impossible not to notice. In fashion parlance, this option is called “Hollywood light cherry.” Clothes in white or black are very suitable for this shade. You can also indulge in a dark blue or dark purple outfit.
Violet
This shade is similar to a color called magenta. They are both composed of equal proportions of red and blue. But fuchsia still differs in a more red tone. Purple fuchsia is the most subdued and subdued shade of this color. This manicure goes well with a light pink addition, as well as brown or beige.
Red
This option is similar to a coral shade. It is bright, and at the same time lighter and calmer than pure fuchsia. To create the perfect look, choose clothes in white or brick-gold colors.
Pink
The best shade for young fashionistas. It is bright in itself, but calmer and does not look provocative. Complement it with an outfit of gold, silver or soft green, and you can safely “go out”.
What colors does fuchsia get along with?
It goes well with silver and gold, as well as white, black, and gray shades. Summer options for fashionable fuchsia manicure are combinations with green, light green, pink, lilac, which can be assessed from the photo of fuchsia manicure.
This type of nail looks great with black, blue lines or patterns. Rich fuchsia with a matte finish looks great in the winter and fall seasons.
Black
A very good contrasting option when fuchsia needs to be “calmed” and given richness and nobility. This manicure is very suitable for an evening out, going to the park, to the opera or to a concert.
Fuchsia looks great with black using stamping, gradient, and water marble techniques.
Black and hot pink look no less beautiful if you complement the manicure with gold or silver rub, rhinestones, sparkles, and stucco.
Fuchsia manicure options
Fuchsia polish can be applied to accent nails. For example, paint the nails on the ring and first fingers with this tone. Decorate the rest with gold or silver on a pink background. There is another option: paint all your nails in a fuchsia tone, except for the ring ones, which are decorated with gold foil.
Fuchsia with a pattern
With this type of nail, designers advise giving free rein to your imagination. Inspiration can give the artist ideas for creating large patterns, flowers, weaving or lace. Ornaments in black or white, painted on fuchsia, will add sophistication and femininity to the manicure.
Fuchsia is also good with stamping or stickers, as well as butterflies and flowers.
Stamping
If you can’t get to a specialist yet, flowers can be made at home using the “stamping” technique - this is the imprinting of the desired pattern or design.
Scraper, engraved plates, stamps are sold in sets. The fashionista only has to choose the designs she likes.
Rhinestones, stones and sparkles with bright tints in fuchsia tone
A fuchsia manicure with glitter looks unsurpassed at New Year's celebrations, parties, birthdays and even family celebrations. You don't have to come up with incredible decor. It is enough to frame the glossy nail coating with fuchsia-toned varnish with a series of small rhinestones or stones.
It is not forbidden to create spectacular stucco molding, decorated with large rhinestones or fuchsia-colored sparkles.
Plain coating
In the 2022 season, the nail industry is very partial to the hot pink palette. If you plan to get into trends, be sure to replenish your cosmetic arsenal with this varnish. As soon as your mood starts to plummet or you just want to create a bright and fashionable accent in your look, cover your nails with this varnish and everything will be great!
Interesting! If you have tanned skin, then such a manicure will look even more advantageous.
Length matters
Fuchsia manicure for short nails is an opportunity to create a laconic and very beautiful nail. It should be complemented with unobtrusive decor, ornaments, pink or white lace, and rhinestones. For short nails, it is better to choose fewer sparkles, and prefer small rhinestones. You should not make an abstract large drawing. This one is suitable for long nails.
If you want to make an accent nail, it is better to paint it with black or dark gray varnish. Moreover, a monochromatic coating is preferable. It’s worth experimenting with matte and gloss. Apply a matte top coat to a couple of nails, and paint the rest with a glossy fuchsia-toned varnish.
Long nails
On long nail plates, fuchsia looks very impressive. It is important that the shade itself is more saturated and noble. A flashy, very bright undertone can turn an image into a doll-like childish one. This is especially noticeable when there is a confectionery print on fuchsia nails.
On long nails with fuchsia, it is advisable to combine classic designs, large flowers, large and medium rhinestones, stones, and thin light painting. The gradient looks great on such plates.
The transition can be the most daring, from black or gray, or even blue, white, yellow. Pink purple goes well with a wide range of colors also because it shades them perfectly.
Textured long nails are trending this season. For example, you can make voluminous sprinkles, a “soap-bubble” print, or large sculptures. The graceful shape of the nails will be emphasized by a matte top, which will preserve the brightness of the fuchsia and the sophistication of the decor.
Unusual design ideas
For those who like to experiment and stand out, we offer the following options for an unusual fuchsia manicure.
Lunar
Lunar manicure is painted or, conversely, unpainted nail holes. The simplest and safest option is to use fuchsia as the base color and highlight the hole with white. If you want to attract attention, then choose gold or silver shades to paint the hole.
Lunar manicure is suitable for girls and women of any age and status. However, it should be remembered that lunar nail design visually shortens the nail.
French
French (French manicure) is considered the standard of elegance, but modern fashion is characterized by non-standard nail designs using this classic technique. So, for a fuchsia manicure, a neutral but bright white color at the ends of the nails is suitable. For a more impressive look, make a French manicure only on two nails that are not located next to each other. Cover the rest of your nails completely with pink polish.
The French jacket looks very elegant in combination with things of the same shade, for example, with a clutch.
With rhinestones
Since this color itself is bright and saturated, you should not overdo it if you choose rhinestones as a design. It is best to use this glamorous option for holidays and special occasions. You can decorate not only individual nails with rhinestones, but also each of them. Apply rhinestones to the nail hole or make a small design out of them.
This will give you the opportunity to feel like a fairy-tale princess in any setting and attract everyone's attention.
Ombre
As you know, ombre is the use of two different shades to obtain a natural transition from dark to light, and vice versa. On fuchsia nails, we can recommend ombre with a transition from pink to white. This manicure will be less bright, but it will perfectly reveal all the facets of pink and white. The transition of fuchsia itself into different shades looks stylish: from light at the nail hole to dark at the edge.
Such a subtle aesthetic of your manicure will not go unnoticed by others.
Leopard print
At first glance, leopard print doesn't seem to go well with hot pink. But try making a white base and then drawing in dark C-shaped marks. All you have to do is fill the drawing with any shade of fuchsia and other light colors. It is effective to make a leopard print on only a few nails, and cover the rest over the entire surface with rich pink fuchsia.
Leopard print in a fuchsia manicure gives you limitless space for your imagination.
Fashionable French fuchsia tone
This is an unusual option, but recently it has been gaining popularity. A “smile” is drawn with fuchsia, or the edge of the nail is white and the base is bright purple. This jacket can be complemented with unobtrusive decor, depending on the length of the nails.
Rubbing and foil are not appropriate here, but beautiful stones, rhinestones, and fine painting with white varnish are what is needed. You can also use stamping techniques, or make an accent gradient nail in a contrasting tone. These are blue, black, white, pink, burgundy.
Foil options and geometry
You don't have to choose shiny gold or silver foil when creating a pink and purple manicure. You can use dark shades of matte foil: black, blue, burgundy, red, white, yellow.
Nowadays geometric patterns are also at the peak of popularity. They look great on fuchsia if applied with black or gold varnish. You can draw chaotic lines, or give them some order and symmetry. Triangles, squares and rectangles, “scattered” along a long nail plate, are also held in high esteem.
Combination in women's clothing (dresses)
There is a misconception that only young girls with an ideal figure can wear fuchsia. Firstly, there are not so many of them, and, secondly, the magical power of color lies in the fact that it can make any woman inimitable and desirable. The secret is to learn how to control color, which does not tolerate excesses and, despite the extravagance, is very laconic.
A fuchsia dress is considered universal clothing for all occasions. Fashion designers do not recommend overusing decor such as ruffles, flounces, or collars, since even with the simplest cut the dress looks luxurious. Any excess can break the image and make it vulgar
When choosing a new item, you should pay attention to the shade, because two dresses of the same style in the color “antique” and “Hollywood cherry” will look different
The length of the fuchsia dress has a clear gradation: “floor-length” - evening, short and medium length - for everyday use. But if in short you can safely go to any formal reception, then to go to work you will have to “pacify” it a little. For example, a classic sheath paired with a tailored gray or silver jacket will give a more relaxed office look.
Being a self-sufficient color, fuchsia still recognizes duets and trios with other tones. His regular partners are black, gray (silver, metallic) and white. It's easy to find your fairway and look perfect in this color scheme. If we talk specifically about the fuchsia dress, then the following combinations with:
- black - blazer or ballerina, lace inserts, belt, stockings, clutch, pumps;
- gray - a Chanel style jacket, silver high-heeled sandals with frequent lacing, a shopper, a silver bracelet or chain, a belt;
- white – coat or shortened jacket, beads, bracelets, scarves.
You can create chic bows with other, more temperamental colors. A straight cut fuchsia dress would suit:
- yellow – knitted jacket with buttons, classic shoes with small heels, light golden jewelry;
- green – clutch, neckerchief, jewelry made of natural stones;
- beige – coat, shoes or sandals, belt;
- blue – handbag or clutch, short jacket with ¾ sleeves, stylish jewelry;
- red – shoes, blazer, dress inserts, jewelry elements.
Take note! Particular care should be taken when combining fuchsia with leopard prints. Such experiments should be carried out by those who are well versed in fashion and have enough taste not to be defiantly vulgar
Leopard-print bags, shoes, and straps can highlight the individuality of the owner, but there should not be too much spotting.
