French manicure has long been recognized as an immortal classic. But the masters of nail design do not get tired of surprising us with new options for its execution. A french jacket with sequins can be either very elegant and bright, or rather modest and unpretentious.
Color schemes
A classic French manicure appears as a neutral base and white tips. But other combinations are possible. We will present the most relevant in this block. All these colors also go well with sparkles.
Despite the fact that the execution technique of the jacket is completely preserved, the result is completely different due to various shades.
The black
Dark tips visually lengthen the nail. At the same time, the black jacket looks very interesting. Such a manicure can be performed with a neutral or bright base. If you prefer the latter option, then think carefully about whether your image will fit such a peculiar design. With a beige or pale pink primary color, special requirements for the dress are not presented.
Red
If you are forbidden to have a bright red manicure with the existing dress code or you are simply afraid of such a catchiness, then try the red jacket. Such intriguing marigolds will create a certain mood, while not looking defiant.
Pink
A very delicate color that creates a romantic mood.It should be noted that the main color should not merge with the tips. You can make it white. Pink should be quite intense. Although gentle combinations with the color of a dusty rose or powdery pink will look good.
Gold
In this case, the spangles are arranged in a dense layer on the tip. Pretty elegant and festive option. To create a harmonious image, you can arrange the spangles on the main length of the nail. At the same time, they should have a scattering effect, i.e., there will be more in the upper part of them, and almost no longer will be closer to the base.
Neon shades
This option is more suitable for young fashionistas. Such bold combinations look bad with a business suit or ladies of advanced age. The base color here may also vary depending on the style of clothing and mood.
Just consider that the colors themselves are very bright, and if you add them with dark or saturated tones, then you can get too much. Indeed, on top of this beauty there will also be sparkles.
Classic
She doesn’t need a special introduction, as she has long been loved by many beautiful women around the world. Sequins refresh a neutral manicure, giving it a discreet shine. The color of these shining elements can also be different. In classic versions, gold, silver and pink always look good.
Dark base
This is a kind of antipode to the classic combination. With a dark base, the tips are best performed in light shades so that they stand out well against the general background. You can play with the texture: make the base matte, and leave the ends in gloss. This combination will fit most outfits and will not be satisfactory.
How to make french sequins more original
French with sparkles in itself is a very non-trivial version of manicure, but it can also be made more complex and interesting. Look at the examples below, and perhaps one of them will decorate your nails very soon.
French vice versa
With this technique, not only the tip, but also the strip at the base of the nail, stands out in a different color. It is better to perform such a manicure on oval-shaped nails. Both symmetrical crescents form both above and below. If neutral combinations can be used for a classic jacket, then it is better to choose contrasting shades.
Oblique
In classic French, the smile line repeats the natural contour of the nail. Here you can set any slope and bending duration. It can be either a smooth half-arc or a flat line separating the white oblique tip. Spangles at the same time slightly smooth out such an asymmetry.
In combination with the moon
The lunar region is the zone at the base of the nail in the form of an incomplete moon, which has a lighter shade. They propose to dress her up when creating a lunar manicure. But no one forbids you to leave a white tip and decorate everything with sparkles.
Double
There may be several options. The simplest is to highlight the tip with a contrasting color, and underline with another line of excellent shade. Colors can repeat the basic shades of your clothes or in harmony with accessories. Another option is to leave a transparent strip after the white tip, and then only apply the basic shade. Well, the third way is to use one color at the tip to the middle, and on the other hand, another. The border of two shades can be drawn along an oblique line or a gradient.
Ombre
If you are not a fan of clear lines and strict geometry, then the ombre option with sparkles is what you need. A smooth transition from one shade to another will be highlighted with sparkles. Such a gentle and feminine manicure will certainly tell about you as a sensitive and gentle nature.
Matt
A great option for a casual look. It is worth considering only one nuance. If you first glitter and then cover them with a matte finish, their sheen will be muted.This is also an interesting option, but if you prefer a bright shine, then you will have to apply them already on the matte finish.
Broken glass
If you place both sparkles and “broken glass” on one finger, then they will interrupt each other. It is better if you issue only one finger in this technique, but bright sequins can be attached to neighboring ones. In this case, they will resemble small fragments shimmering in the sun.
Sugar
Remember what happens if a wet finger is dipped in a sugar bowl? Grains of this sweet sand will remain on the nail. It is this effect that the masters who create sugar manicure achieve. The tip will have not only a different shade, but also a texture. Do not be afraid that small grains will be erased or fall away. These are very small elements that will be securely fastened with a finish coating.
Ethnic motives
Ethnic motifs will feel great not only as the main drawing, but also as the design element (the tip of the nail). It is not necessary to observe strict symmetry on all fingers.
Different drawings, united by a common theme and color, or their arrangement will give the manicure originality and emphasize your individual style.
Decor Options
In addition to the original performance of the French manicure with sparkles, you can complement it with decorative elements. One has only to follow a sense of proportion, and not try to fit everything at once on one nail.
With rhinestones
All masters are well aware of how glitter and rhinestones are perfectly combined. They do not argue and do not conflict with each other. On the contrary, these elements complement each other perfectly and create a holistic and interesting pattern.
With broths
Using these little balls, the master can create a real pattern or pattern. It will be supplemented with brilliant elements. It is better to prefer a small size. You can also just use glitter varnish. This will greatly simplify the work. In this case, the broths can be laid out the border of the connection of two colors of French manicure.
With camouflage
If you don’t have enough glitter of ordinary sparkles contained in varnish, then you can enhance the effect with these glowing circles. They will create the illusion of sun bunnies on the nail. You can apply another option, when only one finger will be decorated with camouflage, but at the same time there will be no jacket on it.
With stickers
They can be arbitrarily different. Their choice in specialized stores is huge. Decide in advance on the topic that you would like to depict on your nail and just stick the picture on a ready-made manicure. Sequins can be used as accents or to draw individual elements of the picture with them.
Fruit
You have not tried a unique fruit jacket? Such a joyful and juicy manicure is more suitable for sunny days, but if you wanted to plunge into the summer on a cold winter evening, then no one will forbid you to draw juicy oranges or kiwi on the tips of the nails.
Flowers
Another option that is very similar to the previous one. Only here, flowers are not used for decoration. Their diversity is amazing. And you can find exactly the flower that emphasizes your personality. Whether it is a delicate tulip, a shy forget-me-not or a bright rose - it's up to you.
Lace
A very delicate French manicure design, which perfectly complement the sparkles. Lace can completely cover the tip or just be the edging of a white strip at the end.
Monograms
The wizards are specially trained to complete these elements in separate courses. But there are self-taught among them. Nothing prevents you from working out at home and making such an interesting and unusual French manicure with monograms.
With bows
Do not draw them or sculpt on each nail. This will be inappropriate.One playful bow on a ring finger is enough to create an interesting manicure and a bright accent. With the addition of a sufficient number of sparkles, a manicure, with every right, can be considered elegant and festive.
3D drawings
Such elements immediately attract attention. If you are free to work with acrylic, then you can fashion them yourself. Otherwise, you can buy blanks in the store and just stick on the nail.
French glitter manicure is interesting in itself. There are a great many of its variations. But they can be diversified and made completely unique when using decor and using special techniques.
