Manicure

Every woman, regardless of the time of year, wants to look stylish. An integral part of any image is beautiful and well-groomed hands, and their main decoration is actual manicure.

The modern nail industry provides many of the most varied options for decorating nails, and for each season there is a certain highlight: shade, style and trend.

Fashionable spring-summer shades of gel polishes and design

Summer is the time of brightness, lightness, freshness. However, in the spring, preference should be given to gentle shades of gel polish. And in the summer you can supplement them with a bright design or replace them with juicy neon colors.

Actual colors of the spring-summer 2024 season: nude manicure, milky, dusty rose, ice rose, neon yellow or orange, yellow, white, cornflower blue, lavender, sky.

White and milk manicure - classic for the summer

White manicure is relevant every summer, as it looks especially good against tanned skin. Last year, clean white manicure with a glossy or matte top was relevant. This year, at the peak of popularity, milky white.

You can complement both pure white and milk with a simple design - stickers (cartoon or tropical plants), silver ribbon for nails, rhinestones and stones (but a little!), Simple design (dots, stripes, brush stroke).

Classic white manicure for short nails

Yellow from pastel to neon - hit this summer

Who would have thought that it was yellow that would become the main color in manicure in the summer of 2024, because according to pantone, live coral is the main shade of this season.

So, if you have never covered your nails with a pastel yellow or sunny shade, the summer is past you. However, all the warm part of autumn, these colors will be relevant.

Fruit on the nails - well, a very juicy solution

Another topical nail design is fruit. They can be both glued and drawn. Of course, the second option is preferable, as the picture looks like a real work of art.

But if you don’t have time to spend three or more hours on a complex design, ask the master to put stickers on the nail and give it “life” using colorless gel polish, adding drops.

Fashionable autumn and winter shades of gel polishes

In the cold season, painting nails with juicy shades of gel polishes is not worth it, as it looks out of place.

In this cold season, the main colors in clothes will be black, beige and gray. In the manicure, favorites were also outlined - these are mouse, black, sapphire, emerald, marsala, olive, brick. And if you really want brightness, select the color of the varnish fuchsia.

Beige or Nude Nails

Speaking of fashionable beige manicure, of course, it is worth highlighting all the nude shades and camouflage. So that such a manicure does not look boring, it can be supplemented with one of the options for actual design: stripes, peas, abstraction. There is also a “free hand” option, when the master does what he pleases without trying to repeat the design on the next nail.

Autumn yellow, brick, red

Autumn is rightfully considered the most colorful time of the year, so it is worth doing a manicure accordingly. Of course, we immediately abandon neon shades in favor of noble and rich tones.

Dark tones

Black manicure in autumn and winter is more relevant than ever. True, it looks good on short or medium-long nails. Long ones should only be supplemented with dark varnish, drawing stripes, holes, tip or geometry. Plum, blue-green, sea wave, eggplant, etc. are also suitable.

Fuchsia, if you want brightness

Juicy fuchsia nails are suitable for owners of short nails. and those with an average length. An additional design is not required in such a juicy shade, but if you really want to decorate a manicure with something, let it be a simple drawing with black gel polish.

Fashion design for nails

When one fashionable shade of gel polish is not enough, you can resort to using various designs. Today, the trend is not only stickers and the ombre effect, but also such innovations as gel cobwebs.

Abstraction and geometry on the nails - in fashion at any time of the year

Previously, the trend was complex geometric patterns, now more relevant are simple and minimalistic.

You can combine 2-3 colors or cover the nail, which is planned to be applied with camouflage. So the picture looks gentle and defiant. In the summer, combinations with at least one juicy and bright color are suitable, and in autumn or winter you can even draw geometry on basic shades.

Minimalism in manicure - stylish and relevant

Minimalism in manicure is the application of a simple design on the current fashionable shades of varnish. For example, it can be lines, stripes of different thicknesses, dots, brush strokes, contour drawings.

Wells on the nails or a combination of two varnishes - also applies to minimalism.

Slides

Slides - stickers with ready-made drawings, with which you can create an interesting manicure. They can cover the entire nail or only part of it.

Masters recommend composing slides with bright rich colors in the warm season and nude shades for manicure in autumn and winter.

Slides can be applied both to all nails and to a couple, for example, nameless, nameless and medium, pinky and large.

Point manicure

To be in the trend will help a point manicure. You can apply dots of the same size or create a complex effect using brushes of different thicknesses.

Mosaic

The mosaic pattern, also called stained glass, is now extremely relevant. Mosaic is carried out in various ways: draw, lay out from sequins, isolated with foil. A mosaic can completely cover a nail or decorate its half, some use it as a decoration for a jacket.

This is mainly a summer design, although it is worth replacing the bright shades of varnishes with more noble and rich tones, as the mosaic becomes a completely winter or autumn version.

Broken glass

The broken glass technique is still relevant. They make such a design for manicure mainly with mica, but some masters have adapted and use foil or special sequins. Nails with “broken glass” look unusual, shimmer in the light and attract everyone's attention.

Glitter

Of course, glitter is still relevant. True, it is now recommended to apply it not on the entire nail, but on half, creating the effect of spreading sparkles.

Metallic

The metallic effect on the nails is another trend of this year. Silver stripes, completely mirrored nails, holes with silver - all this will perfectly complement any New Year's image. Metal manicure perfectly identifies winter weather, fascinates with its brightness and brilliance.

This effect can be achieved with the help of a special varnish or gel, silver rubbing, mica and foil for nail art. Regardless of the method chosen, nails will become the main complement to the winter look.

Ethnic motives

Choosing nail art, pay attention to a new intriguing ornament that combines folk nuances - ethnic design. Unusual color combinations, interweaving of lines, rhombuses and semicircles are more than just a manicure, but a real work of art.

Ethnic manicure is well suited to any look, especially to fashionable autumn plain scarves and wraps.

Spider web

In a matter of months, the cobweb-gel became the favorite of many masters of manicure service. With it, you can draw lines, perform a design in the style of minimalism, or create a complex multi-colored design.

The spider line is fashionable to apply on the tip of the nail. diagonally, the entire nail is whole or closer to the cuticle.

Knitted manicure

Knitted manicure is relevant, as a rule, in cold weather, as it looks harmonious with warm and cozy sweaters. There are many techniques for applying knitted manicure, but the most popular is with a thin brush. This is painstaking work, so it is recommended to draw weaving not on all nails, but on 1-2.

Conclusion:

This season, both saturated and juicy shades of shellac, and delicate pastel and nude are relevant. As a rule, the choice depends on the clothes in which the woman most often resides and the profession. For example, many have a strict dress code, so the dark colors of the varnish are under a great ban.

To diversify a manicure, even with strict rules, you can use lightweight minimalist designs made with black gel on a nude background or with a fashionable cobweb gel.
