Pink itself is not as simple as it seems at first glance. Few people think about the fact that this shade is able to affect the state and well-being of a person. With it, you can get rid of depression and improve your health. Combining two colors (red and white), pink symbolizes different feelings. For example, passion, sexuality, but at the same time tenderness, purity and gullibility are characteristic of him.
At first glance, it seems gentle and romantic. It characterizes renewal and femininity, as well as innocence. From a psychological point of view, this color is saturated with the energy of the representatives of the beautiful half of humanity. However, the color has a reverse side.

However, it is important to understand that pink does not tolerate rivalry, because of this manicure loses its expressiveness and becomes tasteless and childish.

Of course, the best shape is considered to be the elongated on the nature of the nail plate with a rounded edge. However, those who have a nail shape is far from ideal, have to grow it.
The almond form of nails is back in fashion. However, while fashion trends are in no hurry to declare the return of the nails of the “butterflies” with their characteristic long length and sharp ends. Ideally, the almond nails have a small length and oval, slightly pointed edges.

Features and varieties of lacquer products
Quality manicure today performed using modern lacquer products. Pigmented varnishes in pink, which are now used to cover the nails, are hybrid coatings that combine the properties of gel and varnish. Unlike conventional varnishes, gel polishes need to be dried on each layer of pigment applied.
To do this, use a special device - a UV lamp. As a rule, one or two minutes is enough for complete drying of each layer, depending on the type of pigment used, as well as the base and top, without which more than one salon manicure is impossible. Distinguishes gel varnishes and durability: such a manicure can decorate women's hands up to four weeks without the need for correction. As a rule, it does not peel off or crack; it always looks fresh, as if it has just been made.
Today, manufacturers of hybrid varnishes offer several options for the attention of modern women of fashion:
- matte and glossy;
- with pearl shimmer;
- temperature or chameleons;
- options "cat's eye";
- with a translucent texture;
- shimmer and with glitter;

The price of the issue is small, but the effect is not just beautiful, but chic and status.

For example, it may not be round, but diagonal, and also made in the form of an angle.
Upside down jacket
The selection of the cuticle area or the lower outline of pink nails is one of the trends of the new season. Today, this design is considered stylish and fashionable, and it can be done in different ways. In one case, it is a strip in the cuticle zone, lined with small rhinestones. Often it is an arc painted with contrasting varnish or even silver. Remarkable is the fact that today the accentuation of the cuticle area can be both asymmetrical and long, almost half-delineating the nail plate.
Lunar
The design with the so-called holes at the bottom at the base of the nail plate is one of the best techniques of a modern manicure in pink. However, if before the holes were made with contrasting shades of gel polish, today the negative space technique is used in this design.

Pigment is dripped into the clear lacquer, the lacquer is stirred and applied on the nails, then dried, they create patterns and cover with a layer of topcoat.

For example, the nail plate can be poured in several shades, which allows you to use this lacquer product to emphasize manicure. To give the desired effect when performing technology using a special magnetic tool, which bring as close as possible to the painted, but not dried nail plate.
Broken glass
On this day it is one of the most relevant techniques that allows you to create a bright and memorable manicure. Make this design with a special film.A protective layer is removed from it, cut into small pieces, and then glued to the nail plate on a layer of undried finish. At the same time they are placed close to each other in order to get the effect of broken glass. Cover the top of the film twice so that the surface of the nail plate was flat.
It is worth noting that on light pink tones such a design looks softer, while on a bright basis it sometimes seems sharp.
Acrylic Powder
This substance is in essence nothing more than a special polymer powder of a different color, with which the coating is given a special rough texture. In this case, the application of acrylic powder can be partial, as well as complete, in which it is used on a layer of applied, but undried top coating. If the task of the master is not the texture of the coating, but the drawing, then it is created with a top, and then the flock powder itself is applied. This design looks volume, but stylish and new, the coating itself looks status and velvety.
Broths
Broths are microscopic beads, which are used as the main texture of the nail or a means of decorating it. In general, it is microscopic powder-caviar or something resembling semolina. It is applied to the undried top, and then dried under a special (UV or LED) lamp. Today, such a substance can be bought in different shades of pink, which makes it possible to decorate with accent nails to match the basic pigment.
Dressing
Nail decoration is akin to art, especially when pink color is taken as the basis. It is important not to interrupt all the attention from the main shade, as well as to place accents correctly. Consider the materials through which today you can harmoniously decorate a pink manicure.
Drawings
Hand decoration of nails with acrylic paints and varnish products is a real art that can be done by professional masters of nail salons. Thin lace lines that they draw on the nails look beautiful and organic, regardless of the idea of the picture. For design in pink colors, these are often floral motifs, as well as butterfly wings. Acceptable for pink manicure abstraction, patterns of ethnic orientation, a variety of feathers, as well as drawings in sketch design.
Stemping
Under this term refers to the use of ready-made dies with a variety of microscopic drawings. Make them accent nails, choosing the appropriate pattern that fits pink color. As a rule, it is all kinds of lace, as well as small flowers or unusual geometric patterns.
Drawing with the help of stemping is created quite quickly, and the print, transferred from the working part with the help of a special sponge, is smooth and looks professional.
Foil
It would seem impossible to combine tenderness and gloss in one manicure. However, current trends prove the opposite. A foil or a special foil film can be the very accent of the design, which will bring the desired mood into the design and will lift the mood of the woman. The main thing - do not overdo it, because the abundance of brilliance today is not welcome. You can decorate the nail plate marble effect with splashes of silver, mask the joint between two contrasting shades of pigment (for example, combining pink with white or blue).
Rhinestones and crystals
It is worth noting that today the surround decor has lost its relevance. Large crystals, which until recently decorated the nails of female fingers, today seem tasteless. It is important to understand that expressive manicure does not tolerate heaps. What is good in the style of Barbie is inappropriate in the bow of a modern fashionable woman, even if the direction in the style of Asian "lolit" is chosen as the basis of her stylistic image. The less glitter the pink design surrounds, the better.This does not mean that the sparkling decor is contraindicated, but its placement should be appropriate and dosed.
Modeling
Massive decor in the form of volumetric elements - yesterday. Remembering that the pink color is complex, you need to avoid excessively weighting the design. This is especially important to consider when decorating long nails. Today, fashion trends tend to convenience, and the volume decor stands out by the fact that it clings to anything. This is often the cause of breaking nails, which gives a woman a lot of negative emotions.
It is also unpleasant that such a decoration is short-lived, no matter how lining it to the base.
Combination with other colors
Pink can not be called universal in color combination with other shades of the palette. He is quite selective in his choice of contrasts, otherwise he loses his expressiveness and looks childish. To avoid inept combining, stylists suggest starting from several methods of harmonious unity of pink. For example, it looks good manicure:
- milky pink;
- pinkish green;
- combined with nude tones;
- in contrast with light brown;
- in combination with orange;
- with gold or silver;
- with a contrasting white or black pattern;
- in a duet with lilac pearl pigment;
- with sunny and lilac;
- with white monophonic or dairy;
- with dark gray;
- with blue and nude;
- with light beige;
- with bright coral;
- with burgundy gradient technique;
- with turquoise.
Trends of the season
Today, a beautiful pink manicure welcomes the moderation of the decor. No matter how much you want to stick on rhinestones and crystals on your nails, you should not do this, as you should not overdo it with glitter and glitter. If you want something unusual, it is better to focus on the texture of the coating, rather than paint each finger in different shades of pink, and even top them up with a scattering of loose decor. Want to be fashionable - learn to choose the right colors and decor. The bright color of gel polish needs to be balanced with soft light tones (for example, choosing them for accent nail plates or a pattern).
