Going south, among other things, you need to take care of the beauty of your hands, making a beautiful manicure. You can perform holiday nail design in a simple and attractive manner or in a bright, appropriate mood of freedom and carelessness. A huge number of ideas.
Tools for creating
Beach manicure can be created based on the experience in nail design. In the collection of necessary tools you need to have:
- a transparent base of good quality that helps to maintain a healthy look of natural nails;
- a set of varnishes of different colors;
- high-quality finish coat;
- various decorative elements and glue to them;
- a set of brushes of different thicknesses;
- adhesive strips with which you can create geometric patterns;
- nail polish remover;
- cotton buds and discs;
- cuticle oil suitable for daily use.
The larger the arsenal of tools and materials, the more diverse and unusual manicure options you can afford.
Features
The image of the woman as a whole and her nails in particular should be appropriate to the situation. On a summer beach, manicure in bright colors, with drawings and texture prompted by nature itself, will organically look. Nails can be smooth and shiny or rough, as if wet fingers had just been in the beach sand. This effect also allows you to hide the disadvantages of the nail plate itself. When creating a manicure, you can combine smooth and rough nails.
When creating nail art, the following colors are chosen as the basis:
- heavenly shades;
- the colors of sea waves from pale blue to dark blue;
- turquoise;
- white;
- green tones;
- sunny shades from dull yellow to sunset red;
- sand colors - beige or golden.
It is desirable to connect the ideas of manicure directly with the theme of the sea and the coast adjacent to it. This is achieved, for example, by wavy lines that create a pattern hinting at sea waves. The combination of golden and blue reflects the continuity of the beach and sea water.
The decor can be supplemented by:
- beads;
- pebbles;
- decorative shells;
- rhinestones;
- mother-of-pearl rub;
- gold glitter;
- themed stickers.
It is not necessary to “build” on the nails images with a lot of details. A combination or contrast of 2-3 colors will be appropriate.
If there is no desire to decorate nails with bright pictures, it is enough to limit yourself with a jacket, leaving a significant part of the plate under a colorless coating. This will ensure the tidiness of the manicure when the nails grow.
Nail Art
There are no age restrictions on creating a manicure in the beach-sea theme. Another question is that when choosing a particular design you need to consider for whom it is specifically intended. Starfish, ships and sharks will be good on the fingers of a young carefree person, not burdened with status restrictions. A woman of middle age or older, holding a responsible position, is more suitable for a restrained design decision. Although this does not mean that such a manicure should be boring, devoid of bright accents.
How to make?
If you want something bright and festive, you can create a pink manicure by decorating the nails on the ring fingers with drawings with a palm tree. This will require:
- transparent varnish for the base coat;
- pink, white and black gel polishes;
- acrylic powder of pink, green and yellow colors;
- Ultraviolet lamp.
First apply a transparent base layer, sealing the edges of the nails. Dried under the lamp. The first layer of a pink gel is applied to the nail plates of all fingers (except the ring fingers). Dried. Impose a second layer.
After drying, white gel polish is applied to the nails of the ring fingers, and then diagonally, starting from the edge, with a brush - stripes of pink, green, and at the very hole - yellow powder. Remove excess with a tissue. Dry under the lamp for 30 seconds.
A very thin brush is taken and a black gel polish in the form of a pair of palm trees is applied to the decorated with powdery nail strips. To do this, it is enough to draw two lines emerging from one point and draw “spreading crowns” on the top of each. Polymerized again, and then on all nails perform the final transparent coating.
After treatment with a lamp, the cuticle is treated with oil. Bright manicure for relaxing on the beach is ready.
Design options
Marine themes can be emphasized with stripes on the nail plates. In the image in black and white it is easy to recognize the variations on the theme of the sailor's vest. By depicting anchors and other attributes of ship life on separate nails, you can enhance the "marine impression". And the combination with a delicate pink color will make the image serene.

Someone will consider the use of Shinju stones (otherwise they are also called quartz) to be the best option for decorating nails. They come in sizes from 1 to 3 millimeters, shine beautifully, and combine with other voluminous jewelry. With their help, you can create intricate patterns on the nail plates, laying them out on gel polish. A green or blue background for them will be most appropriate on the beach.
The use of blue shades with the addition of mother-of-pearl is the best choice for the theme of the beach and the sea, recalling shells, pearls and other mysterious gifts at the bottom of the deep.
To create a spectacular manicure in the marine theme, you can use the technique wet. This will allow using gel polish to translate into reality the effect of moving sea water. On the varnish make stains with a brush, creating a unique pattern.

Images on some nail plates of fruits or berries harmoniously look against the background of a bright monophonic manicure on the remaining fingers, creating a joyful summer mood. You can perform it with the help of ready-made stickers and thanks to rhinestones that are glued to the nails in the form of bright bulk berries.
If you depict scales on separate nails, and on other waves, such a manicure will completely fit into the theme of beach holidays and boat trips. Saturated background tones such as dark blue give depth to the picture and allow you to create contrast. Thanks to this, a manicure will attract the attention of even the most absent-minded people on vacation.
Lovers of light shades can use a silver-blue or pinkish-lilac shade to create a background under a “scaly” manicure. To put such a picture is not difficult at all. Even the girl with a deuce in drawing will cope with the image of semicircles.
Creating a drawing in a marine style, you can not create a "complete" picture on each individual finger, but "force", for example, sea fish to "swim" from nail to nail. Giving volume to the image allows you to emphasize the originality and reliability of such a design.
The same principle of “overflowing” can be used when applying a separate image in marine subjects to each nail. All nail plates are “united” by one link - the image of a ship rope. At the same time, manicure allows you to use a background coating of different shades within the framework of one stylistic solution.

How to take care of manicure on vacation?
Going on vacation on the sea, I want the manicure to safely survive all the days spent there, without causing his spoiled look of annoyance. If a high-quality gel polish, base and top are used to create the design, and they have already proven themselves in creating everyday manicure, there is no doubt that a trip to warm regions will also stand it all safely.
Most of all, the hope for a monophonic coating without the use of jewelry such as rhinestones, foil and other stickers. Also, experts do not advise making nails very long. Short or medium-length plates are more convenient, moreover, they are less likely to break than long ones.
It is advisable to take manicure accessories with you on vacation, if not all, but at least nail files, with which you can return the tidiness to the fingernail damaged at the end.
If, besides lying on the beach and swimming in the sea, it is planned to engage in extreme sports, for example, climbing on rocks, it is better to limit yourself to a modest manicure on short nails without the use of decorative elements that are fixed to glue.
