How to get a pedicure for relaxing at sea?

When going on vacation, it is important not to forget a single trifle. This is especially true of all the nuances of appearance. Open legs in summer slates and sandals should look amazing so that their happy owner feels as comfortable and confident as possible. The article will discuss what pedicure is best done before a trip to the sea.

Beauticians and doctors advise on vacation not to paint the nails with varnish, to give the opportunity to relax all parts of the body, without exception. But ardent fashionistas can not agree with this statement and are looking for a special design that is suitable for this wonderful occasion.

If the appearance of the nails is determined in accordance with the taste of the future owner, then the properties of the pedicure for the beach must meet certain requirements.

1. Durability. A trip to the warm regions, as a rule, lasts a rather long time. And you don’t feel like wasting time on the search for a pedicure master, and on the creation process itself during the rest. Therefore, it is necessary to take care of the condition of the nails in advance, bringing beauty directly in front of the road. The main thing is to choose the optimal resistant coating that can withstand the tests of water, the sun and long walks. Regular varnish is unlikely to be the best solution.
2. Nails should not be too long. On the beach there can be many dangers for your legs: stones on the shore and under water, steep descents in unfamiliar areas. All this can cause damage if the nail plate protrudes too far.
3. The idea of ​​a pedicure should take into account most of your outfits, swimwear and shoes. Every woman wants to feel irresistible, especially on vacation. But the whole image can be spoiled by a clear varnish on the legs that does not fall into the topic. Therefore, in advance, review the wardrobe that you will take with you, and choose the best idea for a pedicure.
4. Nail design should not be too complicated. Additional elements in the form of rhinestones, pebbles or other voluminous decorations can disappear and fail at the most unpredictable moment. It is certainly beautiful, but not practical. After all, on vacation you are far from your beloved master.
