The combination of colors in manicure: features of the decor and design techniques
Modern technologies and materials make it possible to create an infinite number of shades of various nail polishes. They can please the heart of the most demanding fashionista. The latest trends in this area offer compositions of several shades in one manicure.
Monochrome combinations
In our time, there are more than a dozen of different colors and shades for creating manicure compositions - from the avant-garde to the ancient classics. The most popular is now the combination of two colors, when the colors create an original image.
It is difficult to understate the combination of colors in manicure, which allow you to get an infinite number of shades. Not all young ladies are well aware that using two tones you can create amazing monochrome combinations.
The simplest thing is to implement a composition with a gradient effect, when one color “flows” unobtrusively into another. Look like this technique can be very impressive.
Similar results can be achieved using the ombre technique. It exists only seven years, continuing to remain a popular and popular design option. It is characterized by plastic transitions of different colors from one to another.
The technology is realized with the help of ordinary varnishes, and rhinestones and sequins are often used as decoration. The term can also be used if the transition of colors is carried out within one nail.
For such compositions it is recommended to take related shades based on one color. If blue is taken as the base, then it would be appropriate to use ultramarine, bright blue or light green. There should not be a sharp contrast between different colors, one into the other should go smoothly and unobtrusively.
A very useful tool is the brightness of color schemes, which can be flashy and chamber. Such an arrangement algorithm can bring the desired effect without any special difficulties and “torments of creativity”. It is important to understand your trend, to understand what is most combined with the personality of the girl.
The main colors worn are achromatic:
- Gray;
- white;
- the black.
When creating compositions, they are located in the substrate. Almost any halftones can be added to them. It has long been observed and verified many times that with the existence of base tones you can make up any harmonious composition, it will almost always look excellent. In the end, even from the two main colors, such as black and white, you can make an original unique pattern.
Not everyone succeeds in performing such “pirouettes”; here we need natural talent, which not everyone has. The armament in such cases is taken a special table, in which there are basic patterns. They are the starting point for creating your own composition. As an example, one of the most commonly used is white.
It combines with almost any color, but three are ideally suited to it:
- blue;
- red;
- the black.
Contrast effect
Two colors can be simple, and the effect of their combination can be very significant. You can compose, for example, blue and green, black and gold, orange and lilac.
Where there is contrast, there will definitely be intrigue. It is possible to find unexpected undertones, for example, green and red.Contrast is also possible in combination with various textures, for example, matte and velvet surfaces look very unusual. Also, any texture can be shaded sequins.
In this case, it is important not to overdo it with varnishes, which should be no more than two types. If textures with one another sharply contrast, then this may not always be successful. Usually matte tones look good in combination with wet sand varnish. Glossy varnishes benefit in the vicinity of the screen means.
Black is also a basic color; in combination with white, they look organically. It also looks good golden color in combination with a black tone, and red - with lilac. Gray sets off different combinations well - almost always gray-white or gray-blue look nontrivially. Such combinations are safe, they can please the eyes of any young lady.
Beige tone successfully "lays down" with a variety of pastel and pink flowers.
Yellow color can not look original and advantageous, but in contrasting combinations it simply does not have a price. Say this can be about a combination of yellow and dark blue, as well as yellow and black colors. The yellow shade of a ripe lemon remarkably “superimposes” on the scarlet color. The compositions of these two colors are able to actively complement each other. Very well the color of gold and metallic with a blue color scheme and dark cherry.
Red and scarlet “work” together quite well. There are countless shades that are self-contained.
They can be enriched in various combinations, especially it can be said about the colors:
- gold;
- the black;
- ashen;
- white.
The tone of a ripe tomato is a rather rare shade, but it can be extremely effective. It should definitely be “diluted” with shades of yellow or light green tones.
The pink color is also one of the base colors, it rarely looks coarse. Permissible in some sense to call it a win-win. Pink color is limited by age frames. Young ladies under 20 wear it appropriately, then questions begin. At 28, this shade can also be ideal for a girl, emphasizing her undeniable merits. However, such a manicure may look inorganic, which will lead to the opposite result. In any case, with a pink color associated with the mass of individual moments.
Brown can look "alive" only in some compositions. Best of all, it “works” along with pastel tones, as well as golden hues.
Orange color is very individual. Burning brunettes, it is contraindicated, but may be suitable for girls with light brown or red hair. Also in combination with blue and blue, orange can look very advantageous.
Shades of green are presented in a wide variety. Most often they are combined with almost any other colors. Even a brown or orange color can “go to bed” very naturally along with dark or light green tones.
Classical Duets
Monochrome design is the simplest and most natural, it allows you to make the right stretch, as well as color transitions. With the so-called complementary manicure it is possible to combine a variety of color contrasts.
Most often distinguished:
- colors;
- invoice;
- halftones and shades;
- saturation;
- associativity
The tools are rich enough to achieve the desired effect. The easiest way to compose similar colors is to create a double composition. Two basic shades, such as white or black, are capable of creating a real creative extravaganza. With their help, you can create any pattern and any composition - from ancient Greek motifs to late rococo. Such a manicure can be ideal for any toilet - from a luxurious evening dress to worn denim clothing.
It is no exaggeration to say that the composition of black and white will never go out of fashion.
When creating a manicure with your own hands, you should always remember the color wheel, which was studied in lower grades in drawing lessons. Postulates from this circle should always be considered in the work on creating your own image. If you own the basic rules, it will be easy to generate your own unique compositions.
Also, remember that colors can be cold and warm. In the classic manicure, they always prevail in various combinations. You should also apply the opposite linear colors, in which there is one color gamut. There is also a triple classic color combination, which is called triad.
Techniques
In the design of nails used a variety of techniques. For example, the stencil design, which includes the popular French manicure - french, actively used by many fashion houses, is very famous. Lunar design is the opposite when the nail bed is processed. Art design involves the creation of various compositions on the nail using water-based acrylic paints.
Original compositions are often compiled from various fragments. This style is called volumetric design. Manicure application with stickers is very common. The attractive thing is that within minutes, original compositions can be created with their help. To draw them by hand, take a long time and even more patience. Stamping is translated as “stamping”. It is made using special plates by stamping. With proper practical experience, it is easy to make such compositions.
Gradient method is a little lost its relevance., although it is still quite often used by women of fashion in Europe and America. The essence of the technology lies in the fact that lacquers of various colors are combined. Using the sponge creates the necessary transition. Stretching is often done with special varnishes (glitter). It turns out the whole picture, in which the colors "flow" one into another. This design looks quite impressive.
