Two-tone manicure - how can it be?

From the name it's easy to guess that if a manicure is two-color, then for its creation you need to use two colors. Choose a combination is not difficult, in the photo we introduced the idea of ​​a combination of colors. Another thing is to decide on the technique.

The simplest and most time-consuming option will be when we cover one or two nails with a different varnish.

A variation of the same technique is the isolation of one nail with a coating of sequins, while all the others are covered with a matte monochrome lacquer. Such a manicure would be appropriate to look at a party.

The hit of last summer, which has not lost its popularity even today, is the "ombre" manicure. It represents a smooth transition of one color to another. It is desirable that these two shades are in harmony with each other, although recently the designers have decided on bold experiments, trying to combine in one manicure something incongruous.

Drawing a two-color drawing is a more complicated procedure, requiring certain experiments and artistic skills. But to make a bright two-tone French manicure is within your power and you, if you give this lesson enough time and effort.

French manicure on the contrary, or, as it is also called, the moon manicure, that is, when we draw a nail at the bottom of the nail hole, and not from the top, as usual, looks intriguing, fresh and uncommon.

How to make a two-tone manicure at home

In detail we will consider with you the technique of "ombre", since it is for the beginners in manicure business it seems the most unusual of all. If you also do not know how to make a two-tone manicure with a smooth transition, read the instructions below.

We need:

  • base for lacquer;
  • 2 different varnishes;
  • porous sponge;
  • stencil
    we will pour the varnish;
  • adhesive tape or sticking plaster.
Advice: adhesive tape / adhesive plaster is needed in order to glue the skin around the nail. This will prevent "crawling" of the varnish on your fingers. Adhesive tape can replace the lubrication of the skin around the nail with a fat cream.
Then perform the following actions in the specified sequence:
  1. Preparing the surface of the nails: remove the remaining varnish, grind the nail, remove the cuticle.
  2. We apply a basic covering, that the beautiful two-color manicure has laid down more exactly.
  3. We put the main tone on the base of the nail, we wait for complete drying.
  4. The further course of events can unfold in two ways:

    we drip the lacquer on the stencil, which will be on top, we dip the sponge into it and go through the top of the nail;

  5. we drip on the stencil alternately two varnishes, we mix them at the border, we dip a sponge and we pass through the entire area of ​​the nail plate.
Tip: The color transition on the nails can be both vertical and horizontal. If you want the color to vary from edge to edge, hold the sponge horizontally. If your goal is a smooth flow of color from bottom to top, use a sponge in an upright position.

But this two-tone manicure (video with the master class), performed in the ombre technique, has an uneven flow of color on the finger nails of the whole hand, rather than a single nail, as we said.

How does a two-color manicure look on short nails?

A manicure with long fingernails is no longer in trend. Now it's fashionable to have a girl's fingernails only a few millimeters. It looks stylish, and this manicure seems more natural and natural.
