Even the most conservative young ladies, who always paint the nails in pastel shades, sometimes dream of bright accents and unusual decisions. To start the experiment, they should pay attention to a combination of beige and black shades. It is still quite classic, suitable for everyday wear, and office dress code, and a festive event. At the same time, such a manicure is quite interesting, and it allows you to experiment and show your imagination.
Combination Features
Manicure, combining black and beige shades, is considered neutral, but attractive and has many advantages. In this pair, beige is always chosen as a base, which, by the way, is also relevant for other combinations with this shade. Black is used to add contrast to sometimes lost pastel color. In addition, by itself, beige requires a perfect nail, because any, even the slightest, imperfections will immediately become noticeable. Black can be used just to hide such fragments.
The combination of these two colors is also good because it allows you to adjust the shape of the imperfect nail. For example, choosing the pattern or design of the coating correctly will make it possible to draw out short fingers or, if necessary, visually shorten the excessive length of the nail plate. In addition, you can increase the width of the nails and even with the help of color to give them the perfect almond shape.
Although black itself is always the same, beige allows you to play with shades. This color can be saturated or almost imperceptible, approaching the coffee color or ocher. Thus, even the simplest coating each time may become different.
However, stylists still recommend choosing a beige tone, based on the type of their appearance. It is better for blondes to stick with light and “light” colors, but for brunettes to leave in saturated and maximally bright shades. Tanned young ladies are allowed to play on contrasts - choose a rather light color that stands out on dark skin. We should not forget about the combination of several shades of beige in one manicure design.
If we talk about different color types, it is better for autumn young ladies to choose warm shades, from peach to ocher, which tend to pink and orange colors. Gray or greenish tones are much more suitable for winter girls, that is, coffee and diluted umber. Spring girl, like autumn, also prefers warm colors, but more prone to pure ocher and yellow. Summer girls look best with dark beige flowers.
There are other rules for such combinations of colors.
- First of all, you need to be extremely careful when applying horizontal black lines - they quite noticeably shorten the nail plate. If the nail is initially short, then it makes sense to lengthen it with the help of vertical strips, patterns and other elongated images.
- Secondly, it is necessary to track, that the form of a nail has appeared smoothed. At the same time, black accentuates the corners, so with this tone you have to be more careful, but beige, on the contrary, will help in this situation.
- Finally, third, You should not repeat to a manicure in a pedicure. For toenails, it is best to leave a clean nude shade with neat accents on a pair of fingers, although black will look good.In any case, the color chosen for the pedicure should match one of the colors used for manicure.
Suitable complementary colors
Black and beige manicure is good in itself, and it is very controversially combined with other colors. But if you still want additional shades, it is better to prefer white lacquer, pale pink or gold. In all cases, its use should be minimal for accents. For example, if a design with animal spots is chosen, then part of the nails is covered with black, a pair of fingers are beige, and specks are drawn on them using black and gold.
Interesting options
Black and beige shades allow you to create completely different design solutions. For example, you can apply a kind of classic french on your nails. It looks very elegant and versatile, but at the same time much more interesting than the regular version. The same can be said about the now popular moon manicure - in black and beige shades it looks very harmonious.
It is worth explaining that most often the beige base comes in combination with a black pattern or pattern. In this case, all the nails are covered with a neutral shade, and then two or three fingers are decorated with an elegant image. In this case, it will be appropriate to add rhinestones - the black shade looks very good in addition to the shiny volume elements. Successfully, these shades will "play" in a manicure, combining different textures. As a rule, beige matt varnish and glossy black are used for the coating.
As an option, the nail plate of all nails is completely covered with a pastel shade, and then graceful curls are applied with a brilliant contrast on the tips of a pair of fingers. By the way, you can try to combine beige gloss and matte black. In this case, a combination of various geometric shapes. Two fingers can be completely covered with black, three nails covered with beige and small black squares can be drawn, and the rest can be divided vertically in different proportions.
To create a patterned manicure on your nails, you first need to give the plate a neat shape and cover it with a base. Then the main color and the additional color are selected For beginners at this stage, you can restrict the majority of nails to paint in the first color, a couple of three - in the second color and applied over the finished stickers with patterns.
Since black and beige manicure is quite versatile, there are attractive variations for holidays. As a rule, they are characterized by the use of rhinestones and sparkles. The rhinestones themselves can be either a small accent or a center of the composition. The same applies to sparkles, the only rule is that they should repeat the existing shades or be as close as possible to them. This means that, for example, green or red glitter would be completely inappropriate.
Bright or three-dimensional decor should not be placed on all fingers in a row, it suffices to restrict only a couple of plates.
Beige and black lacquers allow you to create and original “sugar” manicure. First, the nail is covered with a base coat, then two layers of the main color. The last of them should not be dried, as immediately on top decorative sand crumbles, the shade of which is in perfect harmony with the base. Removing the excess, you will need to dry the nails. In this case, by the way, the colorless coating is not applied, otherwise the “sugar content” will be spoiled. It should be added that "Sugar" can be placed only on a pair of nails or even on small parts of them.

The image is formed from dots and thin lines. In conclusion, the nails are covered with a shiny varnish. Such a manicure will be equally relevant in everyday life and at social events.
Girls with healthy and polished nails must try a black and beige matte manicure. Most of the nails are painted black, and a pair of fingers - beige, with a black triangle in the middle. As an additional emphasis on the same nails in the area of the hole is placed a golden rhinestone.
