Ideas for the design of lilac manicure

Lilac manicure is relevant for many seasons in a row. Today, this tone is in the line of the most fashionable, allowing you to complement the female image with notes of refinement and aristocracy. Its color combinations allow you to create unique combinations with different colors, due to which the manicure looks not only stylish, but also impressive and with a different mood. About what modern ideas of design of lilac manicure are, we will consider in detail further.

Lilac color is formed from three colors: blue, red and white. This explains the versatility of color and the mass of its shades. The predominance of red or blue affects the temperature of the color, the concentration of white paint determines the intensity of lilac. From the huge list of lilac tones, the most popular this season are:

• pale, almost white lilac;
• lilac-pink;
• blue-lilac;
• purple-violet;
• dusty lilac or grayish lilac;
• violet;
• lavender;
• lilac amethyst;
• dark lilac.

The choice of the desired shade depends on the taste preferences of the woman.

Lilac is not universal. He is discriminating not only in the choice of the tone of contrast, but also demanding of its richness, since everything bright and sharp can destroy the tenderness inherent in the lilac color. For this reason, most of the tones with which this color is combined come in a pastel color scheme.

However, in order for women not to puzzle over the harmonious combination, stylists offer a number of ready-made solutions. According to their opinion, it is possible to complement lilac manicure on the basis of their temperature and saturation, for example:

• pale lilac in harmony with white, beige, golden, sunny yellow, pinkish, mint, apricot and blue;

• dark lilac looks good with peach, creamy, milky, warm beige and related light shades;

• Classic lilac tone can be complemented with pink, purple, gray, silver, brown and denim;

• Amethyst lilac is best combined with pinkish and nude tones, as well as light yellow, mint menthol, blue, gray-blue and beige;

• violet tint will look beautiful in manicure, if you add a delicate green or beige contrast to the design, as well as the color of a dusty rose, cream, gray or black;

• to the lavender shade is to choose a coral, pink, yellowish-orange or blue contrast;

• fans of lilac-blue tones should combine this color with malachite, wormwood, apricot and pale pink shades.

Without exception, shades of lilac in harmony with white, milky and silver tones.

Dark contrasts, added to the lilac color, change the perception of manicure, making it more mature and evening. Light companions can soften the dark tones of lilac, which makes the manicure easy and especially gentle.

You can use color contrasts as a hint for a particular season of the year. For example, the mint-lilac design will fill the image with spring freshness, blue-lilac will give coolness. Lilac with gold will allow you to perform a festive decoration, and adding to the delicate shade of green contrast will be especially important for summer bows.

The shape of the nails, according to the fashion trends of this season, can be different. However, this does not mean that fashion is ready to take the once-popular ultra-length and the sharp form of nail-butterflies. Today, nails can be natural short, which looks especially beautiful on narrow and elongated nail plates. If the nature of this form is not given, it is necessary to grow them or increase the length.

Edge framing can be straight or rounded. The so-called almond-shaped nails are also coming into fashion. At the same time, their edge can be not only pointed, but also sawed. The length of this form today is small, due to what the manicure looks beautiful and gentle on them.

If the nail plate is short, and even flat, the choice of shade for them, like varieties of lacquer, must be approached thoroughly. For example, there will be appropriate tones that will visually lengthen the nail, make it more narrow. In fact, it can be shades of medium saturation: light and almost white lilac tones will make the nail plate wider and even more flat.

As for the coating effect, you can use a matte gel polish or cover it with a mat finish. Beautiful here will look and receive transfusions of related shades. You can decorate short nails with a smooth transition from classic to dark lilac or even purple.

Visually extend the plate can be with the moon design. The transverse lines of the decor will shorten the already insufficient length of the nails. Light accents on the sides even more emphasized small length. As for the decor, here it should be small, so that against its background the nails do not seem to be very tiny.

For a moderate length of nails, all shades of lilac without exception are good. This form is so convenient that it allows you not to deny yourself the pleasure of making a lilac manicure in any currently known design technique. In this case, you can cover the nails with any of the varieties of gel polish that you like, for example:

• matte or glossy;
• jelly or shimmer;
• pearl or sequined;
• temperature or chameleon;
• with the effect of "cat's eye" or holographic.

Looks great on long nails so-called rub, which allows you to create a unique effect of the game of rainbow shades on a lilac background. Both vertical and diagonal, and transverse patterns, as well as a complete coloring of the nail plate will be harmonious here. The only thing to consider is the dosage of accents. For the rest, there are no color limitations for long nails.

To date, there are several basic techniques of performing manicure, in which the lilac color will become the embodiment of tenderness and femininity. Each of them has its own nuances and differences in implementation.

• Classic. Performing this technique, the nails are stained with pigment over the entire area of ​​the nail plate. The design may involve the addition of contrasting shades or accents performed in other manicure techniques. The monochromatic coating formed by the classic method of manicure, provides further decoration with various elements.

• French French manicure is performed in two ways. In the first case, the nail is first stained with pigment, and then the upper edge is circled, forming the so-called smile zone.The second method implies partial non-painting of the nail (the principle of negative space). In this case, the main color of the manicure becomes pigmented gel polish.
• French is the opposite. Inverted jacket differs from the classic version only the location of a smile. If the traditional way it is located on top, then the reverse French manicure has a stroke at the very base of the nail plate: in the area of ​​the cuticle. At the same time today it is fashionable to display a thin line of the lower smile, raising its ends above the middle of the nail.
• Lunar. Such a manicure is differently called a design with holes. In fact, it is somewhat similar to an inverted jacket, although the cuticle area here is made in a semicircle. With the advent of the new season, it is now more often not single, but double, having a second bow. This design is carried out today in two ways: by staining the well or leaving it completely unpainted.

• Gradient. The second name is Ombre. Under the design means a smooth play of tones, while apparently one shade turns into another, due to which the coating looks not only unusual, but multifaceted. Such a technique is often used as an independent design, but it is often the basis for decoration. If the palette of matching shades uses contrasting pastel colors, this design looks very impressive.
• Broken glass. Today, this design is the most fashionable of all the others. It is created with the help of a special film, from which the protective coating is removed, then cut and glued onto the pigment-covered nail. On a bright lilac background, in a moment, rainbows of tiny glasses appear. This nail design looks spectacular and stylish, it attracts rave looks.

• Powder. Acrylic polymer powder allows you to create a unique surface texture. If you pick up such material in a color related to the main pigment, then powder can be used to emphasize manicure, if you do not want to apply it to the entire area of ​​the nail plates. It is enough to first draw a simple pattern, and then apply powder on the undried top.
• Veil. This technique is especially beautiful when using rich and dark purple tones. Externally, it resembles the effect of nylon stockings, performed by adding a few drops of lilac pigment to a transparent gel polish. This coating is used to paint the nail, then paint a simple acrylic paint on it, and at the end cover it with top and dry it under a special lamp.
• Newspaper. This technique is based on the classic staining of the nail plates, after which they create prints using pieces of unwanted newspapers. To do this, put the newspaper in alcohol for a couple of seconds and then tightly pressed to the accent nails. After 30-40 seconds, the newspaper is removed from the nails and covered with marigolds with a printed finish. If desired, newspaper manicure can be decorated with other decor, which will give it a hint of vintage.
