- Rhinestones and crystals. This decor can have not only a different size, but also a different shape. Proceeding from this, a pedicure can differ in a different surface relief. Of course, such a pedicure can not be called convenient. However, it looks spectacular in a female evening look or at photo shoots, special celebrations.

In addition, it can be added to the gel varnish, if simple sticking seems too boring. Today, glitter is used to denote a small part of the nail, which makes the design more interesting.

This and detachable, and foil-film, stickers, and even the reaped varieties. This nail art always turns out to be spectacular, today it is in trend and can be both on the entire nail plate and on its part.
Depending on the design, such a pedicure is not only suitable for festive moments of life, it is appropriate in the everyday female image.
- Narrow tape The use of narrow adhesive tape or metallized strips has not been losing ground for already about a year. It is actively used for geometric patterns and allows you to hide the joints between two contrasting shades of gel polish. It is possible to use such decor for a daily and festive pedicure. Due to the reflections, it gives elegance even to light surfaces.
- Kamifubuki. Colored confetti or pedicure with sequins proved to be one of the brightest and extraordinary ways of decorating nails. If earlier they were mostly round, then today, in addition to circles of different sizes and colors, you can buy hearts, asterisks, triangles and hexagons. This form allows you to lay on the nails of different drawings. Kamifubuki are good for summer designs, they look great on a dark and bright background.
- Stickers. Various stickers with a ready-made design allow instantly to transform any pedicure. It is not necessary to painstakingly draw small details, it is enough to remove the film, wet and remove the substrate, and then paste the sticker itself on the accent nail on the top dry layer. If desired, in the future, you can decorate the drawings on top with rhinestones. In addition to additional strength, this decor allows you to bring the mood to any image.

This is a good universal solution for daily and festive female images.
- Newspapers. This design will appeal to creative girls. It looks original, attracts the views of others, while doing it is not at all difficult. Pieces of old newspapers are placed in alcohol for a few seconds, and then tightly applied to painted nails (approximately 30-40 seconds). After the required time has elapsed, a letter pattern is printed on the surface of the pigmented coating, which is subsequently covered with a layer of topcoat.
- Flock powder. This decoration appeared in the nail industry quite recently, although women of fashion have already managed to appreciate it. Pedicure turns out spectacular and unusual, the coating seems velvety. It is easy to create it: put flock powder on an undried lacquer, which can be bought in a specialized store. Any selected shade will create a bright pedicure that will not go unnoticed due to the unusualness of the finished texture of the coating.
Season Trends
Knowing the best nail decoration techniques, It is worth considering some design innovations.
- In a fashion underline zone cuticle. For this you can use rhinestones, gold or silver gel polish.
- French today tends to asymmetry. Instead of the upper arc, "smile" is to decorate the accent nail diagonal with lace and rhinestones.
- Contrast design can be vertical. The joints between the monochrome and color coating can be closed near the rhinestone.
- In the fashion volume jewelry. If these are rhinestones, they must be different in size and volume.
- One of the new trends of the season is the partial decoration of nail plates. Decorate no more than half of the nail, while not painting the main part of it with a pigmented gel polish.
- Popular translucent tones that create the effect of a natural nail. At the same time, the decor can be not only bright, but also creative.
- A lot of attention is paid to the bright tones of gel polish. In the fashion of wine and blue tones, metallic gloss coatings is relevant.
- Popular combinations of three contrasting tones. It is better to use large and medium toes for accents.
If we talk about practicality, the best solutions for everyday images are nail designs with a minimum of three-dimensional elements. These are strips, kamifubuki, bright stickers on a water basis and a foil. Everything that can be scraped off is more suitable for special celebrations, because even with maximum accuracy, it is impossible not to cling to shoes with rhinestones. Using lacquer with a metallic sheen, it is worth covering the accent nail with the usual gel polish and decorating with stones.
Decorating each nail with bright decor is not worth it - this pedicure will lose its expressiveness and will seem motley and boring.
