A “different hands” manicure is a bold and fun solution that will surprise even a desperate fashionista. Of course, on one hand the manicure is in one style, on the other - in another. The name of the manicure speaks for itself. The technique is performed in different colors on both handles. But it's not just about the shades. If you wish, you can perform a manicure in completely different styles and not have to choose which is better. Just connect both. For example, use one fashion trend on each hand. Let's say you have pastel nails on one hand and brighter ones on the other. The main thing is not to make nails of different lengths on different hands.
Single color option in different shades
The most fashionable shades of nail polishes and gels this year will be yellow, gray, pink and milky. As an alternative to nude, pastel, neon, sand, silver, red, wine and gray shades. Among nudes, coffee beige will be a hit. So, this year you have a huge variety of options on how to make the most stylish manicure in this style.
In spring, blue and pink, gray and peach will be popular. In summer, the trend will be: yellow, burgundy with red, blue and blue neon. In the fall, you can expect the arrival of wine color, black and white theme, and silver, which have been popular for several years.
How to paint your nails two colors with a sponge
This technique is quite simple, the main thing is to do all movements as carefully as possible.
- First of all, select two suitable varnishes and decide which color will be the main one, apply it to your nails (photo 1).
- Take a small piece of durable, glossy cardboard or plastic and apply two colors of varnish next to each other. Using a pin or toothpick, gently stir the colors where they touch. As a result, you develop a color stretch (photo 2). It is worth noting that you can skip this step and apply the varnish directly to the sponge.
- Find a small, narrow sponge, slightly wider than your nail, and scoop some polish onto the sponge (Image 3).
- Carefully transfer the polish from the sponge to the nail plate, making an imprint (photo 4).
- Remember that the nail polish will also print on your finger, for this reason, prepare a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover. Remove all unnecessary polish from the leather. To make the removal process as simple as possible, apply a rich cream in advance. Also, use the same stick to clean the line near the cuticle. This way you will get a neat manicure, without defects.
- Apply a protective clear coat to ensure your manicure lasts as long as possible.
For these purposes, you can use an applicator, then the skin practically does not get dirty:
