Unfortunately, not all girls have naturally beautiful nail shapes. In addition, there are situations when nails begin to break, peel, or simply need correction. In this case, the beautiful half of humanity turns to manicurists. They, in turn, use special gel polishes to correct the shape of their nails and create designs on the extended nails.
A technique such as gel extensions can transform even the shortest and most uneven nails, and the designs on them help achieve simply magnificent results.

Black manicure
Gone are the days when black manicure was considered unacceptable in everyday life and only a youth movement such as the “Goths” could apply black polish to their nails. In everyday life, when gel polish is increasingly replacing regular polish, black has become as common as beige or burgundy...
Black manicure has long ceased to be boring in its understanding, although even if all the nails are painted with black varnish, while the fingers are well-groomed, and the length of the nails is not too long, but slightly grown, it looks impressive and laconic. A black manicure can be diluted by changing the design on the ring finger, or the ring and middle fingers, while leaving the main color black. You can resort to any type of design: broken glass, sequins, geometric symbols, matte or velvet manicure. How many people, so many designs and styles can be created in black. But, the main rule of “black manicure” is that the nails must be the same length, processed and freed from cuticles, and of course evened, because black color can both hide imperfections and, conversely, expose them to show. Also, do not forget about mistakes that may accidentally occur when applying varnish, and which, as a result of using a very dark color, will be more noticeable than other colors.
If you still decide to use only black color in your manicure, then you can get creative here too. You can cover your nails with a matte finish, or use velvet or black powder, and also choose not just a glossy black color, but with small or large splashes of mother-of-pearl or sparkles.
Fantasize, and then it will be impossible to take your attention away from your fingers!

In order for a multi-colored manicure to be perfect, you need to follow just a few rules. First you need to remember that most varnishes give an ideal bright finish only when applied to white varnish. It is best if the varnishes used are from the same manufacturer, the same structure and density, then the manicure will look more beautiful and not a single nail will stand out. If you want something more interesting, you can draw beautiful pictures or just lines. You can also diversify your manicure with simple multi-colored circles placed on black or white. If you lack such talent, you can use transfer stickers, stamping or slide designs.
No matter how beautiful and bright the manicure is, you need to remember that bright colors require perfect coverage, otherwise even the most sophisticated manicure will be spoiled by smudges and application errors.
Lunar manicure
The name comes from the emphasis on the nail hole. It is painted with a light shade, the rest of the surface with a contrasting shade. There are two types of lunar manicure. In the first case, the “crescent” is concave, and in the second, it is convex.
The secret of lunar manicure is a well-chosen color scheme. And if this was achieved, then it looks very impressive on the nails. The most interesting combinations are black, dark blue as a background or predominant color and light tones up to silver for the hole at the base of the nail. Of all the recommended options, fashionistas may be attracted to the combination of glossy and matte finishes. For example, a black matte background and a silver shiny lunula at the base. This combination will leave few people indifferent, as it resembles a month in the night sky. [yandex3bloka]
Who is recommended for lunar manicure?
It can be done for those with medium-length nails, but it is also suitable for long ones. In the second case, you need to remember that the manicure will visually shorten the length. It will look more impressive on narrow, oblong nails, emphasizing the shape favorably. But with a wide shape, you need to apply it with caution, having thought through the subtleties of color combinations. Perhaps, with the right execution, it will look good on a wide nail plate.
Execution sequence:
- First you need to do a hygienic manicure;
- Next, the nails are covered with a base (base for varnish);
- The first layer is applied to the lunula in a light shade, after which a “smile” is drawn in a dark color and the rest of the surface of the nail is painted from it in two layers;
- Dry in a UV lamp for about 2 minutes;
- Finish the manicure by covering with a fixative.
