Given the possibilities of decoration, pastel manicure can fit into the vivid images of modern fashionable women.

An attractive group of pastel colors is also for those who prefer to create trendy designs with memes. Light background, created by shades of pastel group, is an excellent basis for such decor.

With the advent of the new season, the attention of fashion trends is drawn to the elongation of the nail plate shape. If only recently, short claws were considered the most relevant option, then today moderation and average length are a priority. The shape of the cut also changes: a straight line has rounded ends, which is important for maintaining the softness of a gentle manicure. It looks great pastel manicure on the nails of an oval shape, as well as almond-shaped, which again returns to the fashionable Olympus of the new season in triumph.

However, whatever form one would like to choose, one should take into account the peculiarities of one’s own natural. Well, if she is beautiful by nature and elongated. Those whose nails are short, and even flat, will have to limit themselves to the choice of more saturated pastel colors.

Too light colors, besides the visual shortening of the nail plate, also visually expand it. And it will already look ugly, with such a form it will be more difficult to work on finding the perfect nail design.

Regardless of what varnish products the nail industry offers today, they are all suitable for pastel manicure. In addition, each type of coating will differ in its texture and carry a special emotional coloring to the design. For example, matte pastel-colored pigments improve the manicure of any technique, due to which it looks stylish and status.

Jelly or aquarium pigments are translucent texture. These pigments allow you to make the design of the nails as natural as possible, although for a better design, it is still worth choosing a warm tone.

Magnetic type options today have become more interesting. With them you can create a manicure under the texture of precious stones.

As for the glossy coatings, they are today one of the most successful hybrid varnishes. In addition, they are in demand due to the fact that they can be used as the basis in any manicure technique. Shimmer analogues are remarkable in that they may have a different fraction of sparkles. Glitter today is used to emphasize accent nails, which gives the design elegance and solemnity.

Mirror and temperature coatings are no less popular varieties in pastel colors. Such varnishes can make a special manicure in individual techniques.

The latter are remarkable in that they change color depending on the temperature change. For example, in the cold they darken, while in the warm they become light.

Pastel gamma is not only calm and bodily tones, such an opinion is wrong. In fact, shade is a color diluted with white. This group of shades includes the following diluted colors:

• pink
• blue
• lavender;

• mint;
• caramel;
• coffee;
• nude
• salmon;
• pale turquoise;
• light violet;
• light yellow;
• soft green

Methods of manicure today are varied. At the same time, all of them provide for preliminary preparation of the nails, giving them the desired shape, removing the cuticle and pterygium (skin growing on the nail). To understand the difference between the methods of nail coloring, it is necessary to briefly indicate the basis of each.

Classic manicure is performed with full staining of nails over their entire area. In this way, monochrome designs with a matte texture are carried out, which often do not need further decoration due to the unique appearance of the applied pigment. On the other hand, depending on the type chosen, such coloring can also be used as an accent of manicure.

French manicure - the excellent decision for design of nails in pastel tones.This design looks gentle and beautiful, it gives ease and hints at the refinement of nature. Today, this design tends to asymmetry, and in addition, the traditional smile inherent in the French can be not only diagonal, but also fantasy. For example, it can be arranged in the form of a gradient, chanterelles, seals, memes, or flower petals and leaves.

Under the reverse french meant french "the opposite"in which the usual smile of a contrasting color is located at the base of the nail plate. Today, this bow is more like a contour stroke of the nail. Sometimes it is completely wide or asymmetrically located. Often it is accentuated in a contrasting color with glitter or kamifubuki, and also a gradient is used in the technique.

Ombre - this is the real gradient, in which staining is produced in two ways, using several multicolored or related pastel tones. This season, the gradient can be not only familiar (from bottom to top or reverse), but also with transverse stretching of tones (from one dock roller to another). In this case, not only the natural transition of one tone to another, but also a deliberately harsh gradient is popular.

Moon manicure in pastel colors it looks incredibly soft and modern. Today, the wells, in addition to the usual semicircular shape, can be complemented by thin arches. In addition, they may have a geometric shape, for example, triangular. In some designs, the hole is even double, due to what the design looks fresh and stylish. Often such a technique, like a french, is performed in a negative space, leaving either the hole or another part of the nail unpainted.

"Broken glass" - a technique that today is considered one of the most fashionable and is performed on the basis of a special manicure film. On the bright nails of the pastel range, the cut pieces of the film look stylish and discreet, and such a manicure attracts enthusiastic views of others without shouting. The technique is remarkable in that the film can be laid out in various geometric patterns.

Powder technique allows you to give your nails volume. The technique involves sprinkling nails with a special polymer powder applied on top, followed by drying under a special drying lamp. This coating allows you to vary the design, with the help of powder you can create volumetric velvety patterns, you can choose it in any related or identical tone to the existing pigment.

Newspaper Manicure - Another one of the trends of this season. And it looks better on the bright bases. By printing newspaper pieces on the nails, you can get not only different letters, but also stylish patterns, as well as hieroglyphs, which today are considered to be a trendy nail design. Prints, covering with a layer of top material, can be supplemented with a variety of decor, which will make it possible to add a hint of vintage to the design of manicure.

Manicure in pastel colors can be decorated with different decorations. Moreover, the choice of decorative elements is so great that it is sometimes difficult to dispense jewelry when making accent nails of a manicure. The best techniques that allow you to bring a different mood to your design today are:

• drawings;
• stemping;
• stickers;
• broths;
• rhinestones;
• foil;
• glitter;
• rub;
• modeling gel.

Each type of decor has its own nuances. Combines a variety of seasonal design focus. Today, fashion trends are sure that the design should be seasonal. For example, this can be expressed in terms of the temperature of the shades or using a pattern. The print is made with acrylic paints, using a thin brush or special pens for painting.

Stamping and stickers can be called an alternative to hand painting. Both methods of decoration are characterized by the ability to create a beautiful pattern on accent nails in the shortest possible time.

The stamped print in contrasting colors on a light pastel background looks delicate., because the lines of the finished engraved drawings are almost always thin and airy. It is even easier to work with stickers: they are glued on a layer of top, after which they are dried and sealed with another layer of top.

The variability of the choice of ready-made sliders allows you to easily choose the right design for accent nails in any subject, whether it is in demand geometry or color motifs. The actual drawings are ethnic motifs, as well as the themes of glamor and all kinds of milots in the form of bunnies, bears and candy-hearted themes for marshmallow manicures.

Broths are nothing more than microscopic beads, which are glued by analogy with acrylic powder or create volumetric decor from it. From it lay out the reverse jacket, geometric shapes, create them small flowers that complement the small rhinestones.

Foil is used in the form of scotch, as well as in other varieties, complementing it with accent nails manicure.

Rhinestones today are used in smaller quantities compared to last season. And the matter is not even that fashion today seeks for minimalism and lightness. This decor without dosage makes the gentle tones of manicure less expressive. It can destroy even the ingenious idea of ​​decoration, because we must not forget that the pastel colors are noble in themselves. The emphasis on the texture of such pigments is far from always appropriate, especially since the design with rhinestones should not compete with women's jewelry in the chosen image.

Glitters for silver or gold can replace rhinestones when accentuating the cuticle area, masking the joints of two contrasting varnishes of different color. They can accent and drawings on the nails, for example, making points in the middle of the flower or filling the heart with the same points.

Rub in - a great solution for decorating a manicure in pastel colors. Melkofraktsionny powder allows you to give the texture of pastel lacquer not only a mirror effect, but also a rainbow look or gradient, holography, and even the effect of a cockchafer shell. On delicate tones in pink or mint, it looks particularly unusual, giving the original tones depth and volume.

Modeling gel allows you to give a volume manicure. It is often used when making floral drawings, and also used for gluing small rhinestones or kamifubuki. You can create with it, including the design with the effect of rain drops, which today is considered one of the trendiest.
