The French manicure is considered a classic design and has been incredibly popular over the years. It is used to create stunning nail designs for weddings, special occasions, workdays and other events. Due to the popularity of this technique, many varieties of methods for applying French have emerged. And besides, with the onset of the new season, nail art masters provide fashionistas with new and exciting ideas for performing French manicure. One of the most elegant and sophisticated colors for this design is green. This is exactly the kind of nail art we will look at now.
Features of a beautiful green jacket
Green color is one of the most noble and graceful tones. It is very often used in the design of a stylish look. Regarding manicure, it is also not uncommon and gives women’s hands charm and rigor. The green color palette consists of many tones, ranging from light shades to dark colors. Thanks to this variety, girls will be able to choose the most successful and attractive shades for themselves. For the design to look attractive, the neatness and evenness of the smile line of the manicure is very important. Green tones are suitable for any shape and length of nails. Long oval nails with a green jacket look especially delightful. It is worth noting that this design can be easily accomplished with the help of additional decor. But you don’t need to get carried away and use it too much.
Choose between gloss and matte
The choice between a glossy and matte “finish” of a manicure is a matter of not only taste, but also the practicality of the coating. Matte top is considered more capricious. There may be scratches and stains from coloring substances on it.
At the same time, green matte manicure looks less bright and is more suitable for everyday wear. Even office workers can afford a matte manicure. It works well for both long and short nails, although the same can be said about the glossy design.
Gloss remains a classic manicure. Its iridescence attracts the eye and adds solemnity to the design. And the glossy top is more durable and stays on the nails longer.
Those who cannot choose between matte and glossy manicure should try a combination of them. Velvety patterns on a glossy finish allow you to create a voluminous effect, and alternating glossy and matte nails makes the manicure even more impressive. You can create a moon manicure with a matte top coat and green gel polish, matting the nail holes. A French look will turn out to be interesting if you use contrasting textures rather than contrasting colors to highlight the tip of the nail. You can leave the entire nail shiny and draw a line along the free edge with a matte top coat.
Combination of green jacket with other tones
French manicure in green looks great on its own, but manicurists very often combine it with other shades. The most common and current options are classic white and black colors. It is important that such accents make it possible to highlight the drawing. The yellow tone gives French design freshness and brightness. This nail art is most appropriate for the spring-summer season. The rainbow design of the jacket looks especially sophisticated and attractive. When performing it, it is necessary to use several tones at once. But the gradual transition from dark to light turns out to be an unusually elegant and fashionable French ombre.
