Bright and original design ideas for manicure with lemons.

With the onset of autumn, many are concerned about seasonal depression, as well as a decrease in the protective properties of the body and, as a result, colds. To protect the immune system, it is necessary to eat citrus rich in vitamins more often. And in order to have a good mood at any time of the year, we suggest making an original manicure with juicy and bright lemons.

An amazing fact is that the "citrus" manicure was invented a very long time, and more specifically, not earlier than in the second millennium BC in ancient Egypt. Yellow nail design fits perfectly into the color of this ancient state. The yellow color of the nails of the pharaohs was associated with the sun god Ra, whom they worshiped.

However, everything repeats in the world. Fashion lawmakers after many thousands of years decided to diversify the manicure, and proposed a new pattern on the nail plate of the girls in the form of ripe lemon slices, and also depicted a whole fruit on the nails.

It is not necessary to have artistic talent to use sunny fruits as a nail design. It is necessary to have good taste, bold imagination, as well as patience to repeatedly practice, draw sour, but very beautiful yellow fruits.

There are many options and styles for the image of lemons on the nails. But without exception, the nail service masters adhere to the basic rule: lemons on the nails should be depicted in yellow and light green (if we are talking about lime) color.And so, perhaps, it all depends on the wishes of the client in the beauty salon and on the imagination and technical capabilities of the master, who decided to bring lemons on the nails to life.

Citrus can be represented by any means. Individual segments and a whole fruit look very beautiful on nails. The range of compositions is wide: from the image of lemon slices on the nails to the decoration of the tips of the plate with them. Lemons look much more effective on one or two nails.

Lemons are originally combined with kiwi, watermelon, as well as other fruits and berries. At the same time, you can add freshness and juiciness to the fruit with the help of “dew” from acrylic. You can complement the creation with a variety of sparkles and rhinestones. I would like to note that manicure with “sourness” is very harmoniously combined with almost any outfit, and is perfect for every occasion.

The lime manicure is a truly intriguing and trendy version of the citrus image on the nail plate. Nail design was equally popular both on a bright background and in the form of a jacket.

Psychologists have proved that green color has a very favorable effect on the human psyche, therefore, a manicure with a lime image is the way of appeasement that is necessary for women living in huge megacities.

Sunny shades will help to cope with a bad mood and well-being, when outside the window is cold and rainy autumn. Introducing manicure colors that blend perfectly with yellow lemons:

• blue;
• turquoise;
• green;
• red,
• pink;
• the black;
• white;
• grey;
• Orange;
• yellow;
• silver.

This list is not exhaustive, because the background for the design of nails in the form of lemons can be in either warm, cold, or neutral shades. Therefore, this manicure can be called truly universal.

Presented on display, a lemon manicure looks advantageous on both short and long nails due to the mass of advantages. Let's try the following nail design options for owners of different nail lengths.

So, if the representative of the fair sex has short nails, then it is necessary to try to exclude a huge number of details that will look ridiculous in such a small space for creativity. It is best to draw miniature limonchiki on one or two nails, which will give the woman of fashion a feminine and delicate look.

The background for a manicure with citruses on short nails is best to choose a transparent or lemon. Many, not understanding the objectivity and correctness of the decision made by the master in choosing the basis for manicure of just such colors, will find them boring, but in vain, since such a manicure will visually increase the nail plate.

We list the following design options for short nails:

• jacket with lemon slices on the holes of nails or on their tips;
• composition of slices or whole fruits with a branch and leaves on a transparent background;
• design of one or several nails with the image of a slice of lemon with drops of juice on a transparent background.

Beautiful ladies with long nails still have several advantages compared to owners of short nails. They are ready to depict entire works of art on the theme "Bunches of Lemons in the Garden." That is why on elongated nails you can embody the most daring ideas on a lemon theme, and not limit yourself to anything.

On long nails, the jacket with fragments of various colors and geometric shapes will look perfect, and other fruits and berries will fit perfectly into the manicure. Such a design will definitely add joyful and sunny notes at any time of the year.

The jacket with a thick stripe at the tips in lilac, light green or creamy strawberry color looks amazing on long nails.In combination with yellow it will be possible to achieve a gentle contrast, and the drawings of lemons very harmoniously fit into such a design.

To make a lemon manicure of nails at home, you need to have patience, time, necessary manicure tools, as well as prepare a visual picture with the fruits of lemons or a photo.

Let us dwell on the stages of creating a nail design at home.

• It is necessary to carefully prepare the nail plate for coating with gel polish. To do this, get rid of the cuticle, give the desired shape to the nails, and also remove greasy shine from them.
• Apply a base coat of varnish of the desired color.
• Using yellow varnish, paint the hole in the nail.
• Draw a narrow white strip along the edge of the hole.
• For a clearer contour, mix a yellow or orange tone with white.
• The next step is to finish the streaks of lemon slices.
• The final action is the coating of manicure with a transparent fixing varnish and drying in a special lamp.

Strange as it may seem, the combination of yellow and muted beige looks very impressive, with which other bright shades do not go in comparison. One of such options for manicure with "sour fruit" is the ombre style. Recently, the beautiful half of humanity is actively experimenting with incompatible tones. For example, an interesting transition from a vigorous lemon color to a creamy pink color is quite popular.

Lovers of French manicure really like a jacket in combination with yellow. It can be both a background color and an additional one. There is another unusual option - a yellow line at the base of the nail plate along the cuticle.

In modern nail salons, beauties are offered to do a color blocking manicure. In this design, the nails are connected, but at the same time several shades of varnish are not intertwined and connected. It is permissible to combine sunny varnish in the proposed manicure both with bright contrasting colors and with shades of one color scheme.

The fair sex is delighted with the bright and sunny manicure with the image of a sour, but bringing a cheerful mood to the gloomy autumn days of the fruit. Ladies claim that such a manicure fits perfectly both in the image of a business and strict woman in an office suit, and in the more frivolous outfits of cute seductresses.

Many of the women note that with the manicure on which the yellow citrus flaunts, they feel much calmer and more confident, and also they are not afraid of the autumn blues.
