Chocolate manicure: the secret of design and ideas of the season

Chocolate color manicure is considered noble and sophisticated. This season, he is among the ten best paints in the color palette, providing for the performance in different techniques. On how to make it not only beautiful, but also modern, read on.

Chocolate tone belongs to the brown range, while the coating of the color of chocolate may be different, which is determined by the type of varnish used for manicure. For example, a design can be made with gel polish:

• matte;
• glossy;
• temperature;
• magnetic;
• jelly;
• shimmer;
• craquelure;
• mirrored.

Each type of coating has its own characteristics, which determines its relevance in a particular design. The favorites of the season are varnish products with a matte texture, thanks to which you can make velveteen, velvety, velor or even satin manicure. Such coatings are noble and give a high status to the female image. Often they themselves become the highlight of the onion, and with a moderate accent design gain a luxurious look.

The focus is on gel polishes with a metallic effect, which allow you to add brightness to the design of your fingernails without annoying with catchiness. The cat-eye and craquelure varieties also returned to fashion. Today, these coatings are more attractive texture, due to which you can not only ennoble manicure, but to demonstrate the full depth and versatility of chocolate color.

Shimmer, pearlescent coatings make it possible to add elegance to the design without the effect of vulgarity.Glossy analogues are noteworthy in that they can be used for absolutely any design technique, including matte. It is easy to make these coatings matte using a finish tone with a matting effect.

Today, fashion is favorable to the fair sex. It does not limit women of different age groups and social status, inviting them to choose the best nail shape and coating texture. As for the shape of the nail plates, today it can be short straightened, rounded or oval. In addition, moderate-sized almond-shaped nails returned to fashion.

False nails are hopelessly outdated, today they are considered a sign of bad taste. In addition, often false nails fall from the natural at the most inopportune moment. Building, on the contrary, is popular and allows you to create any form on a natural basis. In this case, you can not only lengthen the nails, but also straighten them so that they do not fall down.

As for nail decoration, today fashion clearly indicates that any design belongs to minimalism and lightness. No massive jewelry and volumetric stucco is needed - the decor of the nails should be airy.

In the designs of the new season, the theme of geometry is traced, such designs are considered the most trendy in the new season. Moreover, if earlier it was expressed in the form of geometric shapes, today in design you can see a variety of hollow shapes with layering one on top of the other, as well as straight lines with dots, prisms, polygons, colored rectangles, sometimes making an abstract pattern on accented manicure nails.

Priority is given to several color combinations through which you can make an elegant manicure without detracting from its nobility and status. For example, you can combine chocolate color with:

• beige;
• bleached coffee;
• powdery;
• gold
• white
• pink;
• the color of Marsala;
• light gray;
• sand;
• creamy.

This design involves the complete staining of nails with one color of varnish. If you use a coating with a matte velvety texture, this design will look stylish, fashionable and expensive. For a classic manicure, they try to choose coatings with a dense texture that completely overlap the nail plate.

French manicure in chocolate tones is often accented with gold, which, with a thin strip of a smile, looks quite beautiful and organic. The inverted service jacket today resembles a stroke of the nail along the contour, since it often reaches almost the top of the nail plate. The modern jacket tends to asymmetry, therefore, in addition to the classic smile, it can be diagonal.

Chocolate-colored manicure with holes looks expressive. If at the same time it is performed in the negative space technique with not painting over part of the nail, then it also visually lengthens the nail. This is especially true for short nails. Today it is fashionable to make holes on accent nails, leaving the remaining nails without too much decor.

The best modern gradient is matte finishes in related tones. You can use several shades of brown, stretching from chocolate to light beige. For the design to be modern and status, you need to make the transition of shades invisible and natural. In addition, it is desirable to use a matte gel polish with a velvety surface texture.

The use of acrylic powder allows you to give the surface of accent nails a special effect. Such a coating looks stylish and voluminous, although it is not worth decorating with all fingers: the accent looks beautiful and expressive when it is not enough. A similar design is created simply: the powder is applied to the top layer, after which the nails are dried under a special lamp.

This technique is especially popular today, although in terms of chocolate color you need to know how to use it. Given that the film looks different on a dark and light background, it is better to decorate it not with the main chocolate color, but with accent nails of light contrast. So the design will correspond to fashion trends, but will not shout about its novelty with a sharp shine under broken glass.

Chocolate color is a great tone for a veil technique. You can create the effect of kapron stockings by mixing a few drops of pigmented varnish with a transparent one. The nails are covered with a new product, after which they are created using chocolate-colored acrylic paint, and then the nails are covered with a layer of top. Today, this design is considered one of the best and most elegant.

Decorating chocolate manicure is a separate topic that deserves special attention. The fact is that chocolate color cannot be called light. To visually make it airier and more attractive, you need to carefully select the decor elements. Today they include:

• all kinds of hand drawings and paintings;
• ready stamps or stamping;
• confetti kamifubuki;
• various stickers according to the method of fixation and volume;
• stucco molding and volumetric decor;
• golden spraying and rubbing;
• rhinestones and other sparkling decor.

One of the best techniques for decorating chocolate manicure is drawing. However, it is only relevant if done professionally. Small contrast lace on a dark brown background looks incredibly gentle and beautiful. Such a design is considered the best to date.

If drawing is an overwhelming task, but you want to set beautiful accents, you should take a closer look at stamping. Today it is in demand more than ever and allows, with a minimum amount of time, to add beauty, a special mood to the design of nails. In addition, due to the thin lines of the pattern, the design acquires lightness and airiness.

Stickers with which you want to decorate chocolate manicure are more difficult to select. The fact is that today design is committed to seasonality. The theme of the drawings should be correlated with a specific time of the year. The dark background color makes it difficult, because it is difficult to attribute to winter or summer, as well as to combine with juicy or, conversely, cold colors of the color palette.

However, there is a way out: drawings can be made in one color to match the chocolate or its contrast. It can be floral motifs, geometry, silhouettes of animals, faces, cats, birds, plants, leaves, ears and snowflakes. Stickers can be supplemented with single rhinestones.
