One of the hits of the new nail season was a matte white manicure. It would seem that a concise solution cannot surprise modern fashionistas. However, the material in this article proves the opposite.
Features
White color is included in the palette of neutral colors, in itself not having an emotional color. But as soon as at least minimal contrast is added to it, it instantly changes and looks completely different. In this case, the matte texture gives the design a certain status. Thanks to this, white manicure will decorate any female look.
Color is not tied to a specific age group, although there are situations in which it is better to avoid staining nails with white varnish. For example, for older ladies this is not the best option, because it will emphasize sagging and old skin.
In addition, white is not combined with some clothing styles. If it is appropriate in strict and office bows, then it’s hardly suitable for the Gothic style.
The nuances of form
White color is demanding on the shape of nails, as it can create the effect of shortening and expansion. For this reason, it is undesirable to use it for short marigolds, as well as flattened ones. With a lack of length and roundness of the natural nail, it will further modify the plate for the worse.
On long nails, white varnish looks great, as on medium-long nails, which is especially fashionable today. As for the shape of the edge, today it can be different. An oval is considered ideal, except for it, a straight line with slightly rounded sides and amygdala is relevant. If we talk about stylets, then fashion does not seek to return to them, since its main trends are minimalism and the desire for naturalness.
What happens?
There are several varieties of matte varnish. Today, in addition to the traditional version, trading companies delight fashionistas with matte coatings with a textile effect. This allows you to beat the seasonality of design, which seeks modern fashion.
For example, for the summer you can choose a varnish with the texture of satin, for the fall will be relevant option with a velvety texture. For the other two seasons, you can purchase analogues for suede or velveteen.
If there is no matte varnish at home, you can do it yourself. To do this, you can cover glossy nails with a finish layer with a frosted effect. When drying in a special manicure device, the coating will become dull at the moment. If there is no finish, you can use special powders to help recreate the velvety or even felt effect.
Design basics
Matte white manicure today can be the most diverse. However, so that he does not scream about himself, but nobly completes the female bow, Some rules need to be considered
- When adding color or neutral contrast to white, the white base should dominate.
- Do not overload the main color with more than two contrasting tones.
- Color implies tenderness, so you need to carefully consider any decor and its theme.
- You can not decorate all 10 nails the same way, if you want to decorate a monophonic base.
- You should not clone a pattern on accent nails, from this the design loses its status.
- It is undesirable to use several varieties of decor at once. Instead of a sense of delicate taste, you can doom the design to a fashionable failure.
To make the manicure look beautiful and talk about the sophistication of a woman, you need to give it expressiveness. Of course, the laconic matte manicure of the classical type or simple plain nail polish also looks great. However, even two accents in the same jacket are able to give it lightness and a certain airiness.
And if you decorate your nails with lace, which is especially fashionable today, then this design will be able to decorate the image of the bride.
Do not stain all nails completely. This will allow you to make something special in the design, because combining different techniques today is considered one of the best ways to get the perfect design. For emphasis, you can leave two nails on each hand, or even create design options in different techniques, making sure that the dominant role in them is assigned to a white matte varnish.
Fashion options
The matte color of the varnish looks great in contrast with glossy. Today, the game of contrasts is one of the trends of the nail season. It is fashionable to draw delicate and lace patterns on a matte basis with a glossy pigment. In addition, these patterns can be sprinkled on top with a special manicure powder or sugar. Due to this, even the most concise nail design is significantly transformed.
White color goes well with light gray, silver and black. Adding neutral contrasts allows you to change the perception of manicure and make notes of the desired subject.
For example, silver can mean a smile in a jacket or a hole in a moon manicure. Black pigment is good for creating geometric patterns or ethnic ornaments - the currently most fashionable options for decorating accent nails.
You can simply paint your nails with white matte varnish and mark the cuticle area on one or two of the ten fingers. Fine rhinestones are perfect for emphasizing it. At the same time, the bow of the inverted jacket can be not only traditional, but also asymmetric.
Place rhinestones on other nails must be dosed. If the cuticle area is already highlighted in the design, more than one or two strasses on the next nail is not necessary, otherwise the manicure risks losing its status and sophistication.
Decor
You can decorate white nails with a matte base with various decorative elements.
