If you still have to wait a long time before the vacation, and the soul is already asking for the sea and the sun, or the weather is fine outside, and somehow you want to conform to it, you should definitely pay attention to manicure with tropical palm trees. Such an image is possible even for beginners, but it looks extremely impressive.
Fashion trends
Manicure with palm trees is considered one of the most popular options for summer cover. It suits both short and long nails, regardless of their shape. The image of palm trees on nails is successfully supplemented with other design elements, for example, glitter and allows you to "play" with the background. As a result, it is possible to obtain both a minimalistic and complex multi-piece work of art. Most often, trees are depicted on a plain background, the color of which depends on their own desires. Pink, lilac and purple coatings look best.
No less popular is two-color manicure. Typically, in this case, palms are applied only to a couple of fingers together with a background that is different from the rest of the plates. You can depict the whole tree or individual leaves, complementing the overall picture with silhouettes of dolphins and gulls. Often, palm trees stand out against the backdrop of sunset, sea or other image of nature. Creating such a manicure becomes more difficult, because you have to use several colors, successfully combine them and complete the picture with such miniature elements as seagulls and the sun.
Glitter becomes a successful addition to palm technology. An extremely unusual idea would be a combination of a French jacket and an image of a tree.In this case, it is allowed to paint the wells in various colors, add sparkles and shiny pebbles and modify the image of the palm tree. You need to use them in moderation: to shade the tips or the holes of the nails, or to create an accent. The background of the picture will be beautifully decorated with the help of ombre.
If you make it in blue tones, you will create a feeling of a bright sunny day, and in pink shades - a romantic sunset.
Creating a palm manicure begins with the preparation of nails. The plate is shaped, the cuticle is pushed back by an orange stick, the surface is degreased and covered with a base. If desired, white varnish is immediately applied - it will further give the colors brightness. Having painted a nail in a single color or creating a “stretch”, you can proceed to the simplest image of a palm tree. A thin brush first draws a curved line depicting the trunk, and then several short, personifying leaves. By the way, such pictures can not be depicted on all nails, but only on some of them, and decorate the remaining fingers with a schematic designation of gulls in the form of checkmarks.
Design
It will be possible to make a bright summer pattern with palm leaves at sunset with the help of several varnishes, sparkles, a thin brush for Chinese painting and black acrylic paint. If there is no desire to paint tropical landscapes yourself, then it makes sense to find suitable stickers. It will be enough to apply the image only on the ring fingers of your hands, and arrange the rest using a gradient with glitter. On the plate of the “outstanding” finger, the base is first applied - white varnish. While it dries, a gradient of three or four shades of pink is formed on a special sponge or ordinary sponge for washing dishes.
The resulting mixture of paints is transferred to the nail of the ring finger by several pressing movements.
If necessary, this step can be carried out twice. After drying, it is better to immediately remove the excess varnish on the sides or on the cuticle with acetone. Then, gold spangles are applied to the tip of the nail plate. Acrylic paint, typed in a black brush, draws the trunks of palm trees, and then spreading branches with leaves. The finished drawing is covered with a colorless fixative.
Adding yellow varnish, it will turn out to create both soft and calm, and saturated bright manicure. For the image on the nails of palm trees, the combination of yellow with orange is most suitable. Having decided to take a chance, the sunset can be made orange - you get a stylish combination that is part of the new season. Of course, for this type of manicure, various shades of pink, from neon to almost pastel, will be appropriate. Having painted your nails in green, you will surely succeed in attracting the attention of others and stand out from the crowd.
A violet palette and bright blue are also suitable. In this case, it is not necessary to draw the palm trees with black paint - you can use dark blue or deep green. An interesting solution will be the use of azure color to cover all nails and white acrylic paint to create images on some of them. It comes into fashion and drawing on one subject of a general theme on each nail.
Thus, a palm tree flaunts on one finger, the silhouettes of the sea and the sun on the other, and all those remaining are covered only by a background shade.
Before starting a manicure, it is recommended to draw a picture on plain thick paper. You will have to apply the same brush that is planned for the manicure itself, or very similar to it. Further, there follows a “rehearsal” on inexpensive false nails, which do not even need to be glued on your own. Having built a suitable supply, you should form a “hand” and begin to process the image. In a situation where the picture is not given in any way, it makes sense to look for stickers for nails or sliders.It will be enough to stick them on top of the cured varnish and fix it with a transparent fastener.
What events is suitable for?
Palm manicure looks best on vacation, especially on the beach. It perfectly reflects the surroundings, attracts attention and charges with a positive. After the holidays, he will also be great to cheer up, recalling a successful vacation. However, it is better to do it for informal events and to avoid an inappropriate environment, that is, requiring an official dress code. Many girls are concerned about the question of whether it is appropriate to use such a design for pedicures. The answer is yes, but with several conditions. In general, there should be a slight difference in the pedicure in both color and pattern.
Therefore, for the toenails, you can use one of the colors used and decorate with the pattern only the thumb, for example, the top of the palm tree or seagulls.
Good examples
On short nails, you can make a very beautiful manicure by combining the lunar technique and the palm trees themselves. In this case, all nails, except the index and middle, are covered with warm orange color, and on the remaining fingers a lunar manicure is done, combining discreet orange and yellow. Elegant palm trees are drawn on top of the base. A simple but stylish solution will be covering the nails with sparkling snow-white varnish and applying a minimalistic image on the ring fingers.
By applying ombre in blue hues to the plates, almost fading to white, it will be possible to create a suitable background for palm trees. If you make a purple ombre with a landscape on the middle and ring fingers, and cover the remaining fingers with white varnish, you get a simple but effective image. By the way, if you focus on pastel shades, then it will be possible to combine several patterns in one manicure. As an option, all fingers, except the nameless, are covered with pale pink varnish and decorated with the image of palm trees. The rest of the fingers are painted in sky blue, after which they are coated with an image, for example, of positive bananas.
Bold natures fit a manicure in white and orange tones. A pair of fingers is painted in white, another pair in red-orange. The remaining two or three nails are covered with orange varnish, on top of which a landscape with a pair of palm trees is depicted. You can depict several trees, schematically designate the sea and put a few tick-gulls. A mixture of French and palm manicure in bright colors with the addition of shiny pebbles will become even more impressive. On all fingers, except the middle and nameless, a jacket is made with a pastel pink base and a bright orange tip. On the remaining fingers, an ombre is formed in pink and orange using a sponge with three strips of paint. The next step on the fingers are palm trees decorated with strasses. At the final stage, everything is fixed with a transparent top.
Complex, but very beautiful, looks a manicure that combines several techniques. A few fingers are completely covered with special powder, a pair of manicures is done, combining a pastel base and a mint tip, and the background for palm trees is decorated with stripes of white, pink and mint colors. A combination of soft pink and blue tones will be elegant. The middle fingers of both hands are covered with pink varnish, on top of which the image of the tree is applied. The remaining plans are painted in a pure blue shade of the sky and decorated with black pastes.
On some, they form a vertical strip in the middle of the nail plate, and on others, they form the zone of the hole.
Yellow and green varnishes allow you to create a juicy and “tasty” manicure with affordable means. Some of the marigolds are painted in glossy yellow, the other part - in glossy green. On the two ring fingers a horizontal ombre is created, on top of which a pattern with a palm is applied.The same can be done with the combination of “orange plus yellow”, only in this case make the ombre vertical.
