First of all, it is not recommended to combine pale tones with bright ones. It may seem that the owner of the manicure simply did not paint over part of the plate, which will make the nails appear strange.
Bright blue colors with pale pink look bad - it’s better to exclude this combination right away.
In addition, any tones are warm or cold; often more intense and rich shades are considered cold.
For example, for cool pink it is purple or raspberry; warm shades include yellow-pink, coral, ruby. Cool blues are shades of frosty sky, moderate aquamarine, sea wave and green-blue.

On the contrary, it goes well with a blue jacket, bag or shoes; • The pigtail effect in a white and blue manicure is a very elegant nail design option that uses white and blue velvety gel polish. Braided manicure is not a novelty of our time, but this season it is quite relevant; • Classic and inverted French manicure is the most comfortable look for any fashionista’s everyday office life. After all, a blue French or lunar design looks very elegant, sophisticated and sophisticated even on long nails; • Blue and pink ombre is incredibly soft and looks great on your nails. You can complement the look with simple perforation of rhinestones. It is important not to overdo it with the number and size of stones - just highlight one or two nails with them.
A trend from past seasons, the feminine silhouette on nails remains popular. On a light blue background, the image of a woman, neatly drawn with a black or dark brown outline, looks incomparable.
