Features of white manicure: preparation, technique

When using white manicure for short nails, you should always remember about some of the features of this varnish:

1. The nail plate should be absolutely flat, as the white coating emphasizes all the flaws of an uneven nail.
2. Do not use cheap varnishes, as in this case the coating will look like it was applied with a stroke.
3. There are some age restrictions on the use of varnish: women who are no longer young should not use white matte varnish, because it will emphasize age-related changes in the skin of the hands.

Young girls can use all types of white varnish, as well as combine it with mother-of-pearl, sequins, various ornaments and patterns.

Before applying white manicure on short nails, you should prepare:

• for 20 minutes, the nails are steamed in warm water;
• then they are dried and the cuticle is removed from the nail plate with a wooden stick;
• adjusting the length with nail scissors, remove the cuticle with the help of nippers. With this type of manicure, it is important that the nails are visually the same length;
• with the help of a nail file, the desired shape is given;
• the surface of the nail plate is carefully sanded with a sanding file, and the process of preparing the nails ends with a polishing file.

White manicure for short nails can be done in several stages:

• the prepared, polished surface is covered with a base varnish, which should dry well;
• after that, the first layer of white varnish is applied with neat strokes, so that no gaps remain. The first layer must be given time to dry;
• then it is the turn of the second layer. After application, they also wait for the varnish to dry well.

When the varnish has dried, another layer of clear varnish is applied on top of it.

Color combinations

White manicure makes it possible to use modern types of ornaments and textures. But it is necessary to select the varnish according to the woman's color type, and there are only four of them.

The color type called "spring" is characterized by the following appearance:

• blonde hair;
• coral lips;
• thin, fair skin;
• blue or green eyes.

  

In this case, an eggshell shade varnish is suitable. It will most of all be in harmony with the exterior.

For individuals belonging to the "summer" color type, slightly different shades and signs are characteristic:

• pink lips;
• Brown hair;
• grayish skin;
• gray or gray-green eyes.

The ideal shade of a manicure in this case is natural wool (grayish).

Those who belong to the “autumn” color type are characterized by other features of their appearance:

• amber or hazel eyes;
• golden skin;
• bright red hair.

In this case, a white version with a cream shade is suitable.

The color type "winter" is pronounced in light shades, but the hair can be either light or dark. For them, you should select a varnish of a rich white shade.

With geometric patterns

White manicure for short nails is interesting in that it gives a lot of scope for imagination, independent creativity. Geometric patterns have come into fashion, with which you can create interesting patterns on the nails.

At the heart of such a manicure are stripes, lines - horizontal or longitudinal, as well as various shapes: rhombuses, squares, triangles, drops, polygons. Having mastered the technique, you can apply more complex schematic figures: people, animals, plants.

To apply geometric patterns, you need to prepare tools:

• dots;
• narrow adhesive tape, with its help it is easy to make various lines;
• stencils in the form of small figures, their use facilitates the entire process of applying an ornament and significantly speeds it up;
• stripper is a thin brush made of squirrel's tail fibers, with its help especially thin lines and dots are applied.

If you want to diversify the ornament, you may also need brushes: fan-shaped, flat, beveled and ultra-thin (with a hair). After all the necessary tools and varnish have been prepared, you can start applying the pattern itself.

Step by step, this process looks like this:

• nails are put in order, the cuticle is removed, the nail plate is filed;
• the surface is degreased, the base is applied, time is kept for it to dry well;
• varnish is applied;

  

• after it dries, it is the turn of narrow strips of tape or stencils. They are applied to the nail and the surface is covered with a chosen color, for example white, after the varnish dries, the strips or stencils are removed and the desired ornament is fixed with a top.

Instead of stripes or stencils, you can also use a brush, drawing lines on the surface of the nail in the desired direction. Using a brush gives you more opportunities to embody various creative ideas, but requires certain skills to work with it.
