French manicure for many seasons in a row is considered one of the best and most fashionable nail design techniques. One of the controversial designs today is the use of a sparkling decor in a jacket. Someone likes it, some do not, however, fashion does not look at someone else’s opinion, and therefore we suggest that you read the material of this article in order to understand what are the current trends of the French with rhinestones, which allows him to declare himself as one of best design options.

Design history

French manicure became popular almost immediately after its creation in 1976, because it successfully fit into any female image. The story of his appearance was based on creating a universal manicure for actresses, suitable for any outfits. This idea originated in the head of one of the directors, and the founder of the Orly company brought it to life.

At its core, manicure meant the staining of the main part of the nail with a skin color, and the growth of the nail with white contrast. Initially, the creator of the French Jeff Pink called it "Natural Look", although the name later changed, as it seemed to the author too simple. Today, the technique undergoes various modifications, but its essence remains unchanged: the design must necessarily have a foundation and a smile, denoting the regrown nail.

Description of technology

Create a modern jacket in different ways, including for the smooth design of the edge using special strips of various shapes and widths. The basic technique is to cover the base with the desired color and decorate it with a smile. However, brevity today is considered a boring approach to design, therefore, apart from pigments, nails are decorated with prints, and after them - with rhinestones and stones.

Today fashionable nail design in the negative space technique, in which part of the nail is not painted at all, while making the smile itself. To enrich the natural nail plate using a coating with a translucent texture of skin color. However, if before the nail was first painted in one color, and then covered the edge with another, today many variations of the basic technique have been invented.

For example, you can draw the edge of the nail, not only a contrast feature or even a geometric figure. In the fashion also contour stroke, which can extend from top to half of the nail plate, and even to its base. However, if earlier only the classic was known, then today the service jacket can be either mirror or flipped. In this design, a smile is located at the base of the nail plate or in the growth zone of the cuticle.

There are other options for french. For example, in addition to the fantasy and geometric, it can be asymmetric, diagonal or even gradient. In the latter case, it is created using contrasting lacquers and tiny sponge brushes, spraying a smile over the main background pigment. As for the different lines, today it is easy to create them. At the expense of ready-made templates you can depict not only the bow, but also a transverse line, wave, lightning, heart motif, star or zigzag.

Color palette

Classic French manicure involves using the natural color of the base and white for a smile or regrown part. Along with this, today the colors of the service jacket can be very diverse.For example, in addition to nude and skin color, the base can be made absolutely any color, including colors of pastel, neutral, bright and neon groups.

The same can be said about the color of the edge, but there should be a clear contrast between the background and the smile, and therefore they are trying to choose different tones for them.

By relating all this information to the fashion trends of the new season, It is worth highlighting the most successful and spectacular combinations, which include combinations:

  • black and white;
  • powdery and black;
  • emerald and gold;
  • black and silver;
  • purple and white;
  • Marsal and white;
  • orange and white;
  • brown and milky;
  • pink and white;
  • flesh and pink;
  • here and blue (red);
  • gray and white.

In addition, turquoise, mint, coral, coffee and fuchsia, as well as juicy raspberry and cherry tones are considered fashionable hues of the color palette today.

Rhinestone decoration

The inconsistency of the relevance of rhinestones in the design of the jacket is due to their inept use. Despite the beautiful brilliance and aesthetic appeal, rhinestones can deprive a design of expression, saturating it with vulgarity. To prevent this, you need to carefully consider the design before you begin to decorate the accent fingers. Beauty is born impromptu only among professionals, and then they do not pour in a scattering of decorative decor for greater effect.

In fact, the expressiveness of a manicure depends on the correct placement of accents. Today it is fashionable to decorate no more than two or three nails out of ten. If at the same time rhinestones in large quantities will be on all of them, it can make the design tasteless. However, if the location of the rhinestones will be point, and there will be few of them, this option will look different.

Immediately it should be noted that in no case can you sculpt rhinestones at once on all ten fingers. This is not only ugly, but also brings to the image the style of “magpie”, greedy for everything brilliant and not versed in beauty. Ideally, one accent with rhinestones would suffice. For a bundle of two nails, you can decorate both, but in different ways. As a rule, on one nail the rhinestone should be less than on the second.

If earlier sparkling compositions and even patterns lined with rhinestones and bulky stones were welcomed, today this approach is considered out of place in the design of the French jacket, the purpose of which is to ennoble the image and focus on the feminine. French is associated with ease, and therefore neither the background, nor the drawing, nor even the rhinestones should make it heavier.

Small elements are not taken to scatter anywhere: for them pick up certain places on the accent nails.

For example, than to randomly litter rhinestones over a lace background, it is better to use them no more than two of the tiniest curls at the base. It will look good rhinestones in the cuticle area, if you arrange them with a small handle. An excellent base for rhinestones are various prints on accent nails. By the way, the use of rhinestones with a picture today is considered a more harmonious method of incorporating glitter into the design of a French manicure.

Rhinestones can decorate the middle of painted flowers, the web of a dreamcatcher, make tiny buds of them, or even buds on painted branches, eyes of painted animals. Rhinestones will look great as a grain of ears.

All this will look harmonious if:

  • the accent nail will not have a cloned pattern;
  • emphasis will be single on one hand;
  • Rhinestones in the design will be small with the right color;
  • the design will involve stones from small to very tiny;
  • the remaining nails will not be complicated by layering of patterns and decor.

Rhinestones together with tiny dots of gold or silver look more harmonious. This allows you to gently fit them into the design of the jacket.For example, the middle with one rhinestone, surrounded by several silver dots, looks better than several rhinestones together. In the same way, it is possible to inscribe rhinestones in the design of the accent nail with a small pattern. Also, a butterfly wing, decorated with rhinestones and gold dots, will look more aesthetically pleasing than a scattering of stones of various sizes.

It is necessary to combine rhinestones with sparkles correctly, starting with the choice of material. For example, a wash with a flake effect will be combined with a sparkling decor better than a glitter varnish. In addition, to achieve the desired effect varnish will have to apply not one but several layers of the product.

It's time to forget about filling the nail with rhinestones all over the area - such a trend is outdated, it is now considered pretentious and tasteless.

Season ideas

Each new nail season brings something different to the design of the French manicure, thereby enriching it. Today, the attention of fashion trends is focused on the seasonality of design. And the best means of expressing the belonging of a design to a particular season, in addition to the color temperature, is drawing. You can paint on one of the equally decorated nails right on top of a smile.

Of course, hand-painted can not be called simple, but regular workouts on special templates and regular practice will allow you to hone your skills and decorate accent nails with elegant mehendi, which today is considered fashionable. By the way, such drawings have a lot of places for rhinestones, so finding the best of them is not difficult. You can decorate with rhinestones and lace stickers, which is no less fashionable today. To do this, first, stickers are transferred onto accent nails, and then rhinestones are glued on them at certain places.

Superbly decorating accent nails with tape-type manicure foil. And this design is quite possible to complement the sparkling stones. Considering the fact that the tape foil has mainly medium-sized drawings, rhinestones in this design can be used as part of the print. For example, it can be not only drops on the leaves or the same middle of flowers, but also the body of a tiny butterfly, dragonfly, and the May beetle.

You can decorate with rhinestones one of the best decor techniques to date - drawing on a wet gel polish. For french, this technique can be performed in two ways: using white or clear base varnish, which will cause the pigments spread over it to spread. Even if all the other nails are made in a traditional jacket, and only the ring finger will be chosen as an accent, this design will look incredibly tender, which is especially important for a French manicure.

This technique is to draw simple lines, commas and drops on a special varnish. When spreading it will create the effect of watercolor colors. Such drawings look especially beautiful, they bring lightness to the design. Rhinestones in them are used on the basis of design ideas. For example, if it is a flower, then a pebble is placed instead of the middle. If abstraction, rhinestones have a point, often at the base of the nail.

The form

Today, no form of nails is not an obstacle for registration with rhinestones. However, their size will matter, as well as the quantity. And the point here will be the length. When the nails are short, they are perceived easier, glitter or pebbles on such nails look easier. Due to the length of their not fit a lot, which is good. Long nails attract attention and especially in dark color they risk to look vulgar, since dark tones and rhinestones together already oblige to a certain image.

In fashion almond-shaped, square, oval nails. Any of these forms can be ennobled with a different handle, thereby making the fingers of hands thinner and sleeker. However, sharp and long nails-stilettos in combination with rhinestones do not look beautiful, as volumetric design with stucco and stones is inappropriate for them.The best length is considered to be medium or moderate, the best accent is the ring finger. You can decorate the accent of such a manicure with a vertical and glue two rhinestones of different sizes at the base of the nail.
