In addition, such nails will look pretty well-groomed and elegant. And if you make them also drawings in bright colors, then this will only add charm.

Advantages and disadvantages

The return to fashion of transparent manicure caused delight in almost all lovers of minimalism. After all, it looks rather concise and neat, in addition, it has many advantages.

Let's consider some of them.

  • Transparent manicure does not take much time. This is very important for women who have too busy schedules, or those who do not like to spend a lot of time in salons.
  • Even if such a coating remains for a long time on the nails, then the growth sites are practically invisible, and this saves both time and money.
  • If the manicure is even slightly damaged, this will not be visible.
  • It gives the hands a well-groomed look.
  • Such a coating allows you to pick up any decoration option you like. Transparent or light rhinestones will look especially beautiful. In this case, they can be suitable even for every day.
  • In addition, this coating can be used even under false nails.

However, do not forget about the disadvantages of this coating. They are few, but still they are.

  • Such a manicure is quite easily soiled.
  • If the nail plate has even the slightest flaws, they will be immediately visible.In addition, in this case, a transparent varnish will act as a magnifying glass, only by increasing them.

Design options

There are a large number of options for transparent manicure. It can be used as a base for another coating. And also this option can be the background for different inserts. The transparent base can easily be decorated with white stripes on the edges or bottom of the nails. A neat manicure of this type is suitable even for false nails of various shapes and lengths.

Decorating with drawings

Ladies who like larger drawings can decorate them with a transparent base. However, small elements will make such a coating more delicate in appearance. Especially if the drawings will be floral. But you can experiment with other patterns. For example, bright stars or small hearts will look great on light nails.

You can even draw leaves or fruits - it all depends on the preferences of the customers. A manicure with an aquarium effect will look very beautiful. To do this, draw a picture you like under a thick layer of transparent gel polish. When it hardens, it will seem that the pattern is under a layer of water.

However, it is worth remembering that no matter which picture is selected, it must be applied extremely carefully. After all, almost all the shortcomings will immediately be evident.

Coating without drawing

Such a manicure can also look very impressive. To do this, you need to purchase a varnish with a tint that will be closest to the nail plate. It can be a beige or bluish pigment. But you can also make a gel polish coating, which will allow you to keep the attractive appearance of manicure longer.

Using sparkles

Most often, glitter is used for decoration on the nail plate. After all, such a manicure is suitable not only for parties or going to a restaurant, but also for ordinary business meetings. In addition, sparkles can be used at different times of the year. For example, in the summer they will shimmer in the sun, and in winter they will create the effect of frozen ice directly on the fingers. Of all the glitter decor options, there are several of the most popular.

  • A rhinestone coating can transform any nails. They will be located strictly according to the scheme or scattered in a rather arbitrary order, it does not matter. The result will exceed all expectations. Even ordinary rhinestones in some cases can look much more beautiful than real Swarovski stones.
  • Glitter coating looks great on short nails. This is a dense layer of sparkles that immediately catches your eye. You can alternate glitter with transparent inserts on the nails or simply select several nails for them.
  • Another kind of sparkle is confetti. This cover is more suitable for the holidays, so that you can stand out among the crowd.
  • And there are also pixie crystals. The coating is applied, like confetti, the only difference is that geometric shapes are fixed on the nails.

Transparent manicure for office style

This option is perfect for working in the office. Even any additions will not be an obstacle, because the varnish transparency will soften everything. For a more restrained option, graphics or geometric shapes are suitable. They will not be so striking, while they look pretty pretty.

Striped Cover

Such a manicure is also considered geometric. However, if such a direction is nevertheless chosen, then the strips should be contrasting. It is best if the drawing is done in black and white varnish. This coating will help hide existing defects on the nails. In addition, it will decorate small nails.

Dot transparent decoration

Those who constantly follow the news in fashion know that polka dots manicure, that is, “polka dots”, has been very popular lately. Applying it is quite simple even for a novice master.

Coating with inserts

One of the most popular coatings is considered a moon manicure. Lunulas remain completely unpainted.This allows the manicure to look neat and beautiful for a long time. This coating is a bit like a French manicure, but the smile is on the other side.

For nails of different lengths

Transparent coating is suitable for nails of any length. On short nails, everything looks especially good, because it will allow you to visually narrow the nail plate. In addition, if you focus on the tips of the nails, as is done in the French, this will slightly lengthen the nails.

Making a transparent coating for long nails, the tips can be decorated with any decoration or pattern. This is necessary so that the nails do not seem too long. In addition, you can use not completely transparent varnish, but a coating with color filling. It will give your nails a more elegant and natural look.

How to make at home?

Before deciding to make a transparent coating at home, it is necessary to study some of its features. This is necessary in order to be able to choose a better coating.

  • The composition of such a varnish must necessarily be a film former. It helps to better harden such a coating, and also prevents the occurrence of chips.
  • In addition, another important component is the photoinitiator. He is responsible for the absorption of ultraviolet radiation.
  • And also the composition should include different diluents or particles that contribute to a better fixation of the varnish on the nails.
  • Transparent varnish has a completely different consistency. This is also worth paying attention to.

When all the features have been studied, you can buy varnish, taking into account all these points, and proceed to manicure. An independent manicure will also save some time that would be spent on going to the salon, as well as money.

First you need to degrease the entire nail plate. And also remove all the remnants of the previous varnish. This can be done with a cotton pad or cloth. If before that the coating was done using colored varnish, and it was not possible to completely remove the color, you can do this using toothpaste and a toothbrush. And only after that you can start applying varnish.

The easiest way to do this is to make a glitter coating at home. To do this, apply varnish to the nail plate and evenly distribute it. After that, dry spangles must be distributed with a brush along the very edge of the nail. In the end, you need to apply another layer of transparent varnish. This will allow you to fix the picture well.

To further simplify this process, you can combine dry glitter with a clear varnish and mix everything well. Sequins can be taken in different sizes. Most of them are large, a little smaller than medium and quite a bit small as dust glitter.

In addition, it will not be difficult to do a French manicure. To do this, apply a transparent varnish to the nail. It is necessary to put in 2 layers. After it hardens, you can paint the tip of the nail with a very thin brush with white or other varnish.

The result should be a smile, which is the hallmark of the jacket. In the end, you need to apply a layer of fixative, so that the manicure lasts longer. If it is necessary that the varnish dries a little faster, then you can lower your hand directly into cold water.
