Options for gray-pink manicure

Gray-pink manicure is included in the line of the best colors of the new season. This combination of tones has its own characteristics, despite the fact that design techniques can be very diverse. To have an idea about the best types of design that are relevant for the new season, you should read the material of this article.

The combination of two different tones of the color palette looks stylish and fresh. At the same time, it has a special meaning: gray mutes the pink contrast. Being neutral, it does not have its emotional coloring, although it introduces a tinge of intelligence and refinement into the design. Pink, on the contrary, is too optimistic. In addition to changing the perception of the gray tone, this color itself becomes stricter.

Unusual and beautiful combination of two shades allows the manicure to be appropriate in different cases. If the pink nail design can not be called everyday, then in combination with gray it will be able to decorate women's images for every day, as well as evening bows. It does not matter what kind of gray color is chosen: wet asphalt, icy gray, gray-silver or glossy smoky. It perfectly softens the pink contrast, even if the design uses not only light, but bright pink pigments.

Depending on the chosen basic tones, the manicure acquires a different mood, for example:

• soft pink tone combined with light gray gives lightness;
• rich pink with a smoky gray speaks of passion and at the same time restraint;
• fresh light tones of two contrasts breathe tenderness and youth;
• warm gray and pink talk about the softness of character;
• fuchsia and wet asphalt hint at the need for attention.

Manicure in gray-pink colors suitable for nails of different lengths and shapes. Depending on the correctly chosen shades of the two pigment coatings, the design will look beautiful on short nails, as well as nails of medium (moderate) length. Fashion trends confidently state that these contrasts look harmoniously on the straight, oval and almond-shaped shape of the nail plates. In addition, they are appropriate when making almond-shaped nails, cut in a straight line at the very top of the nails.

And yet the best form today remains slightly elongated natural, because the fashionable principle today is naturalness. Even if the direct form of nails is important, it is recommended to slightly file sharp sides to refine it. To determine the ideal length of the almond shape is easy: the shape of the nail should resemble an elongated egg. Too long nails in gray-pink colors look aggressive, so this form is a taboo for a similar color combination.

The combination of pink and gray in one design looks balanced. But sometimes you want to complement the design of the third tone. In this case, it should be borne in mind that not all colors of the palette will be appropriate, since the “third” in this case may be “superfluous”. For example, In no case should this combination be complemented with neon or aggressive tones. Toxic-lemon, acid-orange pigments, as well as blood-red color - taboo, such “additions” will make the sophisticated design tasteless and ridiculous.

As for the golden pigment, in this case it will not look beautiful, since silver is closer to gray. Harmonious additions of gray-pink design can be small contrasts of silver, black, white, as well as some pastel colors and related tones of pink. However, the choice of the desired tone should be related to the temperature of both primary colors (gray and pink). For example, for a cold range it is better to choose cool contrasts.

If the main pink tone gives a blue, you can pick up to him shades of purple gamut. When he coral, you can add tone powdery contrast. Sometimes harmonious in design and light mint shade. However, there are cases where temperature mixing is permitted when selecting pigments for design. For example, this would be appropriate for a gradient technique.

The design in gray-pink colors can be made with modern coatings with different texture and effect. For example, a matt lacquer with imitation of a textile surface, including velvet, velor, velvet or satin, is ideal for this. In this application technique may be different.

For example, prints for knitted fabric and snow-covered frost patterns, as well as snowflakes are relevant for winter. Lace is good for summer and leaves for fall.

The texture of gray-pink manicure can be decorated and rubbed. This powder with a microscopic sheen allows you to make the design versatility. This accent can be identified by one or two fingers, which will look even better than glitter or sparkles. Topical decoration manicure and coatings with a mirror effect or metallic texture.

French manicure in pink and gray can be done in different ways. For example, you can beat it with basic colors or add silver lacquer, making the smile, which is customary for this design, along the top edge. It is fashionable today to perform a jacket using the negative space technique. For example, an accent nail may be transparent, and a smile on it - pink or gray.

To accent does not seem too simple, you can decorate the nail plate, in addition to a smile, simple pattern or a few rhinestones. Relatively inverted jacket can be noted: today it has a thin stroke of the nail below, which is made of silver, a companion (pink on a gray background or vice versa), as well as an arc of small rhinestones or sequins.

If you want to decorate your nails with an accent in the technique of broken glass, you can use a special film for this. However, it is worth considering the fact that the film on light and dark colors will look different. For example, on light nails, it really will be like broken glass.On a dark accent finger, such decor will seem like a holography or design with foil.

Gradient is one of the elegant designs of gray-pink manicure. In this case, you can make a smooth stretching of one contrast to another. The gradient today can be performed not only from the bottom up, but also transversely. According to the fashion trends of this season, it should be as smooth and natural as possible.

Decorating gray-pink manicure is done in different ways. One of the trends of this season is the use of stemping (special stamps that are transferred from the workpiece to the nail using a contrasting lacquer and a special sponge). Images of stamping can be very diverse: from lace to geometric or ethnic patterns. The popularity of stemping is explained by the fact that it allows creating a professional-quality drawing on nails in a matter of seconds, albeit in a single color.

Cover this decor with a top clear varnish or top to increase the durability of the design. It is possible to arrange kamifubuki in the cuticle area, the emphasis of which is today another fashion trend.

However, today in the decor it is important not so much to paint over the contours of the lines, as to give them a light silver plating. So manicure accent nails will look easy and beautiful. It is impossible to use in one design all the brilliance techniques at once (shimmer, glitter, rhinestones, sparkling crystals, silver). This approach will break the harmony of the contrast of gray and pink lacquer, because the dominant role in the design determines the nobility of the texture of the pigments used.
