Pink-turquoise manicure: ideas and design options

The combination of pastel shades in the design of manicure today is considered one of the trends in nail art. Among other contrasts, the duo of turquoise and pink was given special attention by stylists.

Turquoise and pink tones have different emotional colors - this allows you to enrich the onion with new and fresh colors. However, in order to make the duet of turquoise and pink harmonious, one of the tones must be inferior to the other. More often the role of the dominant in this contrast is assigned to the turquoise color. It is more saturated and bright. But the pink shade often softens the perception of turquoise, due to which manicure successfully fits into various images of modern women.

At the same time, in order for the manicure not to lose its sophistication, you have to dose turquoise. In general, the combination of two beautiful shades of the color palette can be used for women of different age groups and adherence to clothing style. However, for a harmonious complement to the onion, the colors of the manicure should be related to the specific things of the wardrobe or available accessories.

If you have experience and imagination, you can make a manicure in pink and turquoise using all the known techniques for its implementation. For example, it could be:

• a classic with the inherent coloring of the nail plates in one color and emphasis in a contrasting tone;
• French, in which you can beat the base and the "smile" with different colors;

• reverse jacket, where the contrasting outline of the cuticle area will look beautiful;
• moon manicure, where you can accent holes and accents with different colors;

• a gradient for which you can add another tone of turquoise and rose, performing a chic stretching not only from bottom to top, but also between the side rollers;
• a veil using a darker companion to create the effect of a nylon stocking;

• broken glass, in which you can accent the nail with a manicure film;
• powder, which will allow you to combine two colors of powder on one accent nail, if this is conceived by design.

So that the manicure in contrast to the duo described is not only beautiful, but also status, it is worth approaching the choice of varnish very thoroughly. It is important to purchase helium or varnish products with dense pigmentation.

Successful combinations of coatings will be duets:

• matte with matte (in different colors);
• matte and glossy;
• glossy and shimmer (glitter, mother of pearl);
• jelly and matte;
• glossy and mirror;
• chameleon and gloss;
• temperature and glossy.

For the base, matte and glossy coatings are ideal options. At the same time, it’s easier to work with glossy options - they do not strip, and also spread more smoothly on the nail plate. If in the future you want to mat them, then for this it is enough to purchase a top with a matte effect.

According to fashionable whims, different techniques for decorating hand nails are welcomed today. Moreover, in the trend:

• nails of medium or moderate length with a smooth edge;
• the shape of the nails is oval, straight, “ballerina” and “almond”;
• accentuation of the cuticle area, including asymmetric;
• the use of seasonal techniques in the design, the expression of a particular time of the year;
• minimalism of decor and bet on ease of design;
• decoration in manicure no more than four out of ten nails;
• build-up and refinement of the form, a complete rejection of false nails.

Both pink and turquoise colors belong to shades that accentuate the feminine, so there can be no asymmetry of the edges and, moreover, nail piercings. If you want to be creative, it is better to bet on the unusual texture than to frighten the irregularly shaped nails and make punctures in them, hanging a clinging decor.

The thrash of the new nail season is the decoration of the nails of the ring fingers. The expressiveness of manicure is achieved by reducing the number of accent nails on which the design is performed. For example, a manicure looks ugly, all nails of which are made with a picture or in contrast. Even a french jacket in a pink-turquoise version will seem uninteresting if all the nails are covered with a colorful pattern.

There is a rule: the less the better. The emphasis is then expressive when it is unique and stands out against the general background. There can be two accent nails on the hand, while one should be smaller than the other - this is done with a smaller pattern or fixed decor.

Knowing that the tones themselves are quite delicate, you will have to make out the nails taking into account femininity. In this case, it is desirable that, in addition to the picture, a background is visible. This creates the illusion of lightness, which will allow manicure to harmoniously complement the female image. The best options for decorating accent nails today are kamifubuki, stamping, stickers, stencils, as well as hand-painted and rhinestones.

As for the drawings, it is worth noting: they will look beautiful only with professional drawing. To do this, you must constantly train, draw lines on special training blanks. If there are no drawing skills, but you want to decorate a manicure with a professional print, it is better to use stickers - today they are able to imitate even watercolor. By pasting them on an accent nail, you can pick up a few rhinestones to the design.

As for decorating pink-turquoise manicure with rhinestones or stones, you must do this rule. Crystals scattered randomly throughout the area will not look beautiful. Today, this trend is hopelessly outdated, as well as laying out volumetric compositions on half a nail from a sparkling decor. Rhinestones look more harmonious when they are combined with broths or dots set with gold or silver helium glitter.

Simplify the appearance of accents stucco patterns, as well as several layers of one print on another. Floral motifs, geometric patterns, plants, leaves look beautiful in such a combination. It is fashionable to use the theme of the sea coast or beach for a turquoise-pink combination. Some of the best drawings on the nails of such a manicure are butterflies, dragonflies, shells, and also mehendi. Fashionable prints include lace, ethnic ornaments, as well as monograms and logomania.

Logos on a light pastel background look especially expressive, filling the design with high status. Lovers of cute designs will love the marshmallow theme, which can be embodied with the help of drawings of ice cream, sweets, cute cats. Those who prefer a decor style can decorate their nails with varnish of a brighter color, while not only turquoise, but also pink pigment can dominate. Manicure foil or even rub looks great on such a basis. The effect of the powder can be very different: from mother of pearl and chafer beetle to holography and mirror.
