Orange color in the design of nails can be interesting, but requires proper use, so as not to spoil the perception. Today, there are many options for using orange, and it is not necessary that this is only the main tone - drawings and French can also surprise the imagination.
Palette and combination with other shades
Despite the fact that orange occupies an intermediate position between the main yellow and red colors in the color palette, there are many popular options for its execution. Among them can be called amber and honey tones, and bolder women often use carrot or fox-skin colors. The color of the sunset and rusty looks very bright in the nail design.
You can independently create a palette for nail designif in orange add a little white. Professionals warn that this color is very bright, therefore it is necessary to apply it with extreme caution. It attracts attention, combines well with black and white, but with the rest of the colors it is not so simple.
Regardless of the length of the nails, it is necessary to carefully select the “design partner” for the orange color. If these are small nails, then it is better to give preference to blue. In addition, the color itself should not be too bright, but rather muted.
A variety of colors is perfect for this shade, for example, olive, gray, blue. Colors are selected based on saturation.
Design options
There are several decorative techniques which are most popular this year:
- rhinestones;
- geometry;
- rubbing;
- gradient.
You can take ready-made elements for nail design, as they are on sale. With their help, a nude design is created, however, as a supplement, you will need to buy beige varnish.
If you want something more vibrant and contrasting, then you should pay attention to orange shellac and a picture in the form of an orange slice. It should be voluminous, because only then will the manicure turn out unusual. In the past and this year, such a design is at the peak of popularity.
It would be wrong to say that the use of orange gel polish is limited only to rhinestones or rubbing. You can safely experiment with texture, drawings, for this you only need desire and the necessary materials. It is very popular to combine a matte layer with a glossy, pearly. In fact, there are a lot of options, but monochrome manicure remains unchanged classic.
If the shade seems a little boring, designers season it with plenty of sand with a flickering effect. With casting, the composition looks unusual and modern. If there is no sand, it is easily replaced with acrylic powder or flock.
A rich combination of gold and orange polish is also a common occurrence. Silver looks good, but do not overdo it. Used to create an unusual effect:
- special stickers;
- foil;
- stencils.
Recently, the effect of broken glass or an aquarium technique has become increasingly popular among girls, but it is not so easy to beat them with orange.
If this is not everyday manicure, but specially created for work, then it should correspond to the office style, which means it cannot be too bright and defiant. If you take a more relaxed shade of orange and place in it a small jacket for short square nails, then this option will become interesting and not very prominent.
It is allowed to add a large flower to two nameless nails, which should be translucent. You can achieve the effect if you use transparent shellac.
In the selection of drawings today there is no specific direction, for ordinary life, these drawings can be the following objects:
- birds;
- animal coloring;
- flowers
- patterns;
- geometric figures;
- ornaments.
There are options that women prefer the most. When using orange varnish, flowers are more often chosen. The watercolor technique of drawing requires a certain experience from the girl, so creating such a decor on the nails by yourself is not always easy.
Orange flowers, whether large or not, look good on a white background. If you have no experience, you can use the dried flower, which is also sold. When orange is chosen as the main coating, the flower may be white, red, blue, but all these colors must necessarily be warm. Borders can be drawn with a brush, black varnish.
It is worth paying attention to the express design, in which sparkles and rhinestones are actively used. On a monochrome manicure you just need to apply one or more stripes and it already looks completely different, more rich and solemn. It can be not only gold, but also silver, but it is better not to use other tones of sparkles, since such a design looks cheap and tasteless.
If you have certain skills, you can create a pattern from these materials. The nail will look unusual, which at first is completely covered with spangles, then a white substrate is formed and a picture appears on it.
A woman who has never tried a matte design has missed a lot in her life. It is fashionable, beautiful and unusual. Today, the second wave of popularity of opaque shades has begun, in orange this coating looks great with casting, sand, and rhinestones. You can try experimenting, but it is not necessary to paint over the entire nail, you can leave some areas. This manicure received a special name - with a negative space.
In summer and spring, I want bright colors, so the orange tones look appropriate. This also applies to the service jacket. You can make a very calm design and cover only the tip of the nail on a transparent base or design a moon design. Tenderness will add a small white stripe along the edge. If you wanted a gradient jacket, then you should use an airbrush or a stencil.
Interesting design
I must say that the orange color, even in monochrome, is already very bright. But it always looks good on a small strip of small crystals, which can be both multi-colored and plain. It has become popular to decorate the cuticle, build a triangle from a decorative element or use them in different sizes. If you have a good taste and a special perception, you can create a truly attractive composition.
So that gaps are not noticeable, in the place where the rhinestones will be laid, sparkles or a mirror rub are pre-applied.
Ombre can be made soft and not too bright if the girl does not like to attract special attention. To do this, you need several varnishes, they must be in the following shades:
- beige or peach;
- white;
- grey.
It is best to take a special brush, in the design of which a furrow is provided, and you can use air -uffing. Today, the trend is shimmering powder and geometric design, which can also be easily combined with this technique.
Designers of the nail service are very fond of the rub, but finding its orange color in the store is not so simple. Therefore, if you like it, you should definitely buy it. So that on the orange varnish you can achieve the desired effect, it must be mirror or pearl. The Maybug and Aurora Borealis look gorgeous.
Before using the rub, it will be necessary to paint the nails well and remove the sticky layer.
Now few people can see the cat-eye technique on their nails, but in reality it looks simply unimaginable, so it’s a pity that women began to forget about it. To do this, you do not need to perform additional actions, it is enough to apply a special varnish on the nail plate. The coating looks especially good if black lacquer was chosen as the base layer.
Additionally, stained glass gel is used, which is selected to match. In our case, it is better if it is dark orange.
It is worth saying that a palette of this color is most often used when creating autumn manicure, but do not limit it to this. In summer, you can take as a basis a brighter, sunny tone. Flowers and patterns look good at any time of the year, especially if the following colors were used as “partners”:
- mint;
- light blue;
- peach.
Designers are increasingly advised not to use standard round rhinestones, but conical ones. A marine theme is in fashion today, namely: pearls and shells. Red and terracotta nails with rhinestones can attract the attention of others, they are immediately evident.
Especially beautiful is autumn leaf fall using various shades of orange.
