Almond shaped long nails
Today, the almond-shaped nail shape is the most popular, and it is the one most often chosen by the fair sex. Almond nails are a nail that is oval shaped at the base and slightly sharper at the end, resembling an almond nut. With this shape of nails, you can perform a manicure in both light and dark colors, and with patterns and sparkles, your manicure will look amazing, whether in a glossy or matte version.
Successful color combinations
The compatibility of colors should be taken into account not only when applying varnish to different hands, but also when choosing makeup and other items to which the laws of color can be applied. Learning color classification will help you avoid mistakes. In accordance with the classification, all combinations are divided into monochromatic, chromatic, complementary, etc.
Of two colors
A monochromatic combination involves the use of dark and light tones of the same color. Shades should not merge or contrast. The category of achromatic colors includes white, black and many shades of gray.
All chromatic colors form expressive combinations and complement any tone. The combination of achromatic and chromatic colors on different hands allows for contrast. In this case, bright cold and warm colors are combined (blue and red, orange and green, etc.).
With a related combination, two adjacent shades on the color wheel are combined, which gives the effect of softness.
Multi-colored manicure: three or more colors
When applying varnish to different hands, you can choose one color as a base, and use the remaining two to apply the design. You can use sparkles and rhinestones as a third color.
Pastel shades are suitable for a daily look. If necessary, you can highlight the nail on one of the fingers of one or both hands with a different color. The classic version is a black and white manicure with glitter. An accent nail on the hand can be decorated with sparkles.
A three-color dotted manicure is also suitable for everyday wear. A metal stick can be used to apply small and large dots. The nail plate is partially or completely deformed. Stripes and striped manicure can also be made in three colors.
All nails are different colors
There are several design options. The most unexpected option is to cover each nail on both hands with a separate color. These can be bright colors, like a traffic light, or calm pastel shades. The fingers of one hand can be varnished in one color, and the other in another. Rhinestones, jewelry, and decor will come in handy in this case.
When creating such a manicure, many abandon the rules and compatibility of shades. A riot of flowers is suitable for the hot season. Connoisseurs of harmony choose calm monochrome combinations.
Oval nail shape
The oval nail shape is very similar to the almond shape, only the corners are more rounded. It looks neat and emphasizes the femininity of the hands.
