How to make an unusual effect of smoke on nails?

Many fashionistas have already managed to get bored with a plain and standard manicure, so they prefer to replace it with a more original version. Recently, "smoky" manicure has been widely used. The effect of smoke on the nails looks gorgeous and allows you to dilute the everyday image with mystery and mystery.

Manicure with stains is a modern technique of drawing a picture, thanks to which you can create compositions in the form of volumetric haze. In addition, this design allows you to give your nails an unusual and bizarre shape, and an interesting combination of translucent background and puffs of smoke emphasizes the beauty of the pens. Patterns can be both multi-colored, and monophonic. Such "nail art" on a black basis looks especially special; it is most often chosen for an evening look, since it perfectly combines with long dresses. Costumes and other formal attire complement this manicure well.

You can decorate with a “smoky” decor nails of any length and shape. To create an unusual pattern, you need to use gel polish of various colors. Blurred lines in manicure are made with alcohol or ordinary nail polish remover.

Before starting the creative process, it is necessary to master certain skills of "nail art" and prepare everything necessary for work. To date, for the design of a manicure with the effect of smoke, there are many materials, while Masters most often choose only some of them.

• Gel paint. It is considered an ideal raw material for the execution of such a design.The main advantage of this paint is that it, when combined with an alcohol-based liquid, is able to form a translucent haze.
• Gel paste. This material is also great for decorating an unusual pattern. To give an expressive outline to the composition, viscous paste must be mixed with a small amount of nail polish remover.
• Stained glass gels. Due to the homogeneous structure and a rich selection of tones, with the help of such gels you can get an interesting color game. The drawing is evenly applied to the nail plate and has smooth transitions of clubs from one to another shade. At the same time, stained glass gels do not have to be purchased - they can be made independently by mixing acrylic paint with a top or a special modeling gel.

Manicure with a haze effect can be performed in various ways, each of which differs in the choice of material and the technique of applying drawings. For beginners, a design option is suitable for which you will need a regular nail polish, a saucer with water and a small object with a sharp end. It can be either a needle or a toothpick. With the help of such a water manicure you can create a smooth and beautiful effect of smoke on the nails. Colored droplets of varnish are placed on the plate, then the finger is lowered into the water and the original stains are formed there.

For girls who prefer to do manicure on their own at home, the idea of ​​creating a smoky design with beautiful stickers is also suitable. Usually a similar method is chosen by those craftswomen who have little experience in "nail art" or have no free time to create a manicure. Original sliders and stickers allow you to achieve a clear smoke effect. To do this, it is enough to determine the color background and image size. A regular base is applied to the nails, after which a sticker is applied and evened on the surface, it is fixed with a special finishing agent.

The effect of haze on the nails can be obtained as colored, white, or translucent varnish. It all depends on the personal preferences of the girl and the style of her image. At the same time, one should not be afraid to experiment and make any creative fantasy a reality.

To get an unusual transparent haze, you need thick gel varnishes of black and white, top and base. First, the nails must be covered with a special base in the form of gel polish, then gently apply a two-layer black base, after drying each layer. Then you should clean the sticky layer with a tissue and start drawing white stripes. They are placed throughout the entire volume of the nail plate, and they will serve as a direction for the "smoke". At the same time, the strips are thinner on one side and thicker on the other. At the end, the brush is dipped in alcohol and begin to draw along the lines with it - as a result, the white varnish “floats”. Next, wait until the decorative layer is completely dry, and at the end fix it with a finish coating.

Many fashionistas prefer to have a “smoky” manicure not only colored, but also voluminous. If you use ordinary gel polish for work, then you will not succeed in achieving scale, since this material has a low density. Therefore, for creativity, you need to stock up on a special base, varnishes that are dense in structure (color and black), and a top top.In this case, drawing stains is necessary not only with a thin and flat brush - for work, you will also need a fan brush.

First, the nails are covered with a base, and then with two layers of black varnish. With the help of white gel polish, small wave-like strips are created, then the brush is moistened in liquid and the lines continue to form. Additionally, you need to sprinkle the drawing with acrylic powder: it is evenly distributed over the entire surface using a fan brush. The finished design is fixed with a fixer.

For such a design, acrylic multi-colored powder is suitable, as well as stained-glass paints or gels that are used to build nails. The procedure for applying "nail art" is quick and easy. Pre-prepared nails are covered with a base base, then two layers of black varnish are applied and dried in a UV lamp. With the help of such a brush, lines are drawn, and the nails are re-dried in the lamp. Then mix the top or gel with stained glass paint and begin to gently cast the resulting haze.
