• magnetic;
• jelly;

Each type of varnish has its own characteristics, which determines the appearance of the design. For example, chameleon coatings adapt to different lighting conditions, due to which the mint tone may appear more yellow, green or, conversely, bluish. Jelly analogs are distinguished by a translucent texture, which is considered fashionable today.

Glossy and matte coatings occupy the first two places in the top of the best varnish products for mint manicure. Both matte and glossy pigments are good in that they are the basis for any technique. Matte varieties ennoble the design due to the velvety surface of the finished coating. In addition to velvet, today they can imitate velor, velveteen and satin.

Mirror varnish or metallic effect coatings are also among the favorites among the best coatings of the season. Today, such a design is considered not only stylish and catchy: it gives out a woman who follows the fashion trends of the nail industry.

Among other methods, you can identify several of the most relevant for mint manicure ways to create a gentle and modern design.

Lunar manicure is nothing but the design of nails with accentuation of the holes at the base of the nails. At the same time, today it is not at all necessary to highlight all the holes on two hands: often for expressive design just two or four accents with such a design are enough.

French manicure in mint color - ideal for everyday women's bows. The bow or the so-called smile can be made with white varnish or black line, silver. Given the craving of the modern jacket for asymmetry, it can resemble a diagonal line, as well as simulating a gradient with a stretch to the middle of the nail plate.

The inverted jacket differs from the classic one in the place of drawing the smile. If in the traditional version it is located on the edge of the nail at the top, then the reverse jacket is distinguished by the accentuation of the cuticle area. This technique is fashionable today, in addition, it allows you to design this type of jacket not only with contrasting varnish or silver stroke. The design option with an accent in the cuticle area in the form of a handle made of small rhinestones will look stylish and effective.

The gradient technique allows you to demonstrate all the versatility of mint color. This can be achieved by using several related shades for the design, stretching from light to dark as imperceptibly and naturally as possible. A similar design looks gorgeous if accent gradient nails are processed by rubbing.

This technique is one of the most trending today.Against a mint background, the pattern that she gives looks especially beautiful and impressive, such a design attracts the enthusiastic looks of others. This effect is created using a special film that is cut into small pieces, and then fixed on accent nails, applying elements close to each other. It is worth noting that this design looks especially realistic on a light shade coating.

Drawing on the nail plates is one of the best ways to decorate accent nails. To do this, use special devices that can make images both voluminous and flat. Peas, stripes, and also geometric figures became one of the most popular prints of the new season. In this case, there can be several contrasts on a mint basis. The main requirement for them is a harmonious combination not only with mint color, but also among themselves.

In the center of attention are drawings with single colors, prints drawn in one color. If earlier a rather complex picture on the nail was welcomed, today, on the contrary, lightness should be felt in the image. It is good if a part of the nail plate with a mint background is open. Gorgeous images harmoniously looking on a mint base are lilies, dandelions, feathers, leaves, twigs, trees.

Marshmallow designs are popular, which depict ice cream, juicy fruits, seals, teddy bears, as well as all kinds of bunnies. Snowflakes made with the use of acrylic powder and also patterns of knitted fabrics look beautiful against a dark mint background of a manicure.

In the new season, fashion seeks minimalism and lightness. This was reflected in the amount of sparkling decor used. If earlier the nail plates were literally strewn with a scattering of Swarovski crystals and small rhinestones, today such an approach to decorating manicure is devoid of expression. The abundance of brilliance is poorly perceived, such a design is doomed to a fashion failure.

To make the design truly beautiful, the dosage of brilliant decor is important, because it should not compete with women's jewelry and jewelry. To look like a royal status, it is better to focus on the texture of varnish, rather than sculpt volumetric stones on all nails. The line of rhinestones can be vertical, rhinestones can be used as single accents on the same patterns, lace or stickers, if appropriate. Rhinestones can mask the joints of contrasting pigments that cover one nail.

Stones or rhinestones can be used as the middle of a flower, the glare of a cat's eye, the bud of a tree, the “eyes” of a peacock feather and even the hare's tail. Such an ornament will look better than laying out a shiny decor on the whole nail in the shape of a heart or a geometric figure.
