Burgundy manicure continues to be one of the main trends. In combination with a beige shade, it looks sophisticated and refined... This nail design looks beautiful both in a solid color and in combination with fashionable techniques.
General recommendations
Burgundy and beige manicure can be done on nails of any length and shape. The main thing is that the hands are well-groomed. This is a bright shade that draws attention to the hands, so it is worth doing a hygienic manicure before applying it.
The burgundy shade goes well with muted colors and pastels. The restrained range emphasizes the depth and beauty of the wine color. But a combination with a bright palette will look out of place.
Dark, rich shades of burgundy will look good on short nails. But this scale visually makes them shorter. Therefore, it is better to dilute it with light colors, for example, beige. Owners of short nails can make not only a monochromatic design, but also supplement it with drawings. For this length, laconic and geometric patterns are suitable.
For long nails, a burgundy shade should be chosen depending on their shape. If they are oval, almond-shaped or square, then the rich shades of Marsala will look harmonious on them. The "aggressive" sharp shape will be softened by more restrained burgundy tones.
Rhinestones are still relevant. But you don't need to decorate all your nails with them - it is enough to focus on one or a pair of fingers. They should be selected taking into account the length of the nails: large rhinestones will look inharmonious on short ones.
Owners of long nails can try to make a fashion trend - imitation of stone inlay. This is a suitable option for festive decoration.
For a long time it was believed that the wine color is suitable for autumn design. But if you combine it with other shades and decorative elements, then it will look appropriate at any time of the year.
Techniques and methods
Burgundy with beige manicure will look appropriate with any style of clothing. It all depends on the chosen pattern and technique. In this color scheme, the pastel tone favorably sets off the bright color.
Tools and materials
To complete this manicure, you will need the following tools:
- burgundy and beige varnishes;
- base for applying varnish;
- fixing coating;
- nail scissors;
- nailfile;
- orange stick for working with cuticles.
Before starting work, be sure to check the condition of the nails. If necessary, it is necessary to do a hygienic manicure. Or if you need to give your nails a certain shape, for example, to create a French design.
A large number of varnishes have appeared in the nail industry, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages:
| Varnish varnish | Short description |
| Gel polish | Popular for its long-lasting coverage and vibrant color palette. Of the main disadvantages, it is worth highlighting the difficulty of removal and if the technique is not followed, there is a risk of damage to the nail plate. |
| Shellac | Combines the properties of gel polish and regular coating. Its main difference is that there is no need to cut the nail plate for application. But the main disadvantage is the high cost. |
| Regular coverage | Despite the popularity of gel polish and shellac, conventional coatings are also in demand. It's easy to apply and there is a large selection of palettes. |
Each master chooses a coating depending on the wishes of the client and the state of his nail plate. It also adds the materials needed to create a design to this standard toolbox.
Fashion Techniques
Burgundy and beige manicure can be performed in various techniques.
"Broken glass"
Burgundy and beige manicure looks impressive, made using the "broken glass" technique. To create it, you need pieces of holographic foil. They can be applied both in a certain pattern and in a chaotic manner.
Experts advise not to do this design over the entire surface of the nail plate. The geometric pattern in this design will turn out to be original and effective.
Rubbing
Another popular technique is rubbing. The master "rubs" a special shiny pigment into the nail plate. This design is suitable for festive decoration. Rubbing is also not advised to do on all nails - it is enough to focus on one finger. Additional decor is not needed so that the design is not overloaded.
Stamping
Another technique that is gaining popularity is stamping. It is suitable for those who do not have drawing skills. Stamping is the transfer of an ornament to the nail using a special stamp.
You can make patterns on both burgundy and beige backgrounds. This technique is a good alternative to stickers.
Ombre
Burgundy and beige manicure made using the ombre technique looks beautiful. This is to create a smooth transition between shades.
It can be done in two ways:
- a piece of foam sponge;
- with a thin brush.
The first option is suitable for beginners because it doesn't require any artistic skills. Only experienced craftsmen can make a smooth transition with a brush.
When creating an ombre, it is necessary to take into account the length of the nails. To visually make them longer, a light shade should be placed at the base of the plate. To create a gradient transition, you can use both shades of the same palette and contrasting colors. The combination of burgundy and beige in the ombre technique looks elegant and is suitable for a business style of clothing.
Negative Space
For those who appreciate minimalism, the Negative Space technique is suitable. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that some areas of the nail plate remain unpainted. Most often, a geometric pattern is chosen for this design.
This option is suitable for girls who find a completely burgundy manicure too bright. It can also be combined with formal business suits, and rhinestones and sparkles will add solemnity to it.
Despite the large number of different techniques, monochromatic manicure does not lose its popularity. The burgundy color looks impressive without additional decoration.
Features of a solid color coating
A monochromatic wine-colored finish is appropriate for any style, because this color is not as bright as red. However, if a light romantic image was chosen, then it is better to add a pastel shade so that the image is harmonious. Also, one or a couple of marigolds can be decorated with rhinestones or sparkles to create a design suitable for a festive event.
Features of matte manicure
Burgundy and beige manicure looks elegant and restrained in a matte finish. This coating has a pleasant velvet texture, and the shades are more muted.
The easiest way to get a matte manicure is to use a coating with a similar effect. After applying this varnish, you do not need to use the fixing agent in order to maintain the matte texture.
Another option is to hold your nails with the applied polish over the steam for a few seconds.An important nuance - before applying the coating, you need to align the nail plate. Matte varnish will accentuate any unevenness, and will no longer look so impressive.
You can make a matte burgundy manicure with the addition of a completely matte beige shade. But one of the fashion trends is the combination of coatings with different effects. Therefore, you can draw a "glossy" pattern with one of the shades. The drawing will be most expressive if it is done in burgundy color on a beige background.
This design option is suitable for any event. The main thing is to choose a suitable pattern. When choosing a pattern, do not forget about fashion trends, one of which is minimalism.
Combination with other colors
The burgundy shade is self-sufficient, so you need to carefully approach the choice of complementary colors. Marsala pairs well with muted and pastel shades such as beige. The manicure is elegant and stylish.
But you shouldn't experiment with other bright colors, because few of them look harmonious with burgundy. Therefore, when creating patterns, it is better to use beige and other pastel shades. The most popular design options are French and moon manicure. This is a classic that will embellish any look.
In French manicure, a pastel shade is the background, and the edge of the nail plate is distinguished by another shade. But now you can use a bright color as the main coating, for example, wine.
However, this option is suitable for owners of long nails. To make a jacket, you can use a stencil in the form of an adhesive strip. Experienced craftsmen can draw a line with a thin brush.
Another fashion trend in the creation of a jacket is that the border between shades can be made in the form of a gradient or a beautiful ornament.
The technique of creating a moon manicure is similar to a jacket, only the emphasis is on the base of the nail plate. Nail service experts advise girls with short nails to be more careful in choosing colors. To make them appear visually longer, the lunula area should be highlighted in beige, and the background should be covered with burgundy varnish.
Recommendations for choosing a pattern and pattern
Burgundy manicure combined with beige is one of the classic combinations in nail design. Nail art remains a popular trend, but you need to choose them depending on the length and shape of the plate.
The most popular pattern options are:
- geometry;
- animalistic drawings;
- flowers;
- inscriptions;
- monograms.
Geometry looks best on short nails because this pattern does not make the nail plate heavier. Vertical stripes visually add length. Geometric patterns work best when all lines are thin.
To draw them, you need to use a thin brush or stencils in the form of stripes. Pieces of holographic foil are also suitable for a stylish nail design. If a girl likes a style close to natural, it is better to make beige as the main color. If you need to create a bright manicure, then a burgundy shade is suitable for the background coating.
Animal drawings are images of animals. The easiest option is to use stickers. Nail service masters try to combine several fashion trends at once, so they draw animals in a geometric style. This design is easy to do - just use adhesive strips. The most popular animals in nail design are a cat, a fox, a wolf.
Flowers have always been associated with femininity, so they have already become classics in nail design. Roses and tulips are ideal for burgundy manicure. Flowers in Chinese painting are especially beautiful. But only experienced craftsmen can do it.
To paint flowers on your nails, you need to prepare a thin brush yourself. You can draw one flower for the whole plate. Or decorate one side with several. This design looks best with feminine outfits.Therefore, flower manicure should be chosen for dates or special occasions.
Lettering or lettering is another option for a simple but effective nail design. You can draw one letter or write a short word. Long phrases will not look harmonious and difficult to read.
Most often, the inscriptions are written in a calligraphic font that looks stylish and elegant. Plain block letters will also work well if all the lines are drawn neatly and neatly.
You can make beautiful, even letters not only with a brush. Special stencils or stickers can be purchased. Another embodiment is stamping, transferring a stamp with the desired image to the nail plate. This method is suitable for beginners.
Monograms and imitation of lace ornament also do not lose their popularity. They will perfectly complement any feminine outfit. Nail service experts recommend painting them in a beige shade. Against a burgundy background, such a pattern will look even more sophisticated and luxurious.
The thinner the lines are, the more effective the pattern will be. Additionally, “velvet sand” can be applied to the not yet cured coating. Then the lace will look even more elegant. Some place real lace on the plate, and this approach looks original and feminine. Manicure with monograms and lace is perfect for a festive event.
Drawings can be done not on all nails, but select one or a pair. When choosing them, the main thing is to adhere to the rule - the shorter the length, the smaller and more concise the pattern should be.
Using rhinestones and sequins
Rhinestones and sequins are the easiest way to make any, even solid color, manicure suitable for a special occasion. Owners of long nails can make themselves an imitation of inlaid precious stones. Small rhinestones will look harmonious on short nails.
It used to be fashionable to make stucco, use crystals and other decorative elements on all nails, but now it has become an anti-trend. It is enough to make a few accents in the pattern, for example, highlight the center of the flower with rhinestones. The main thing is that the manicure does not look overloaded.
An alternative to rhinestones is sparkles. They look more restrained, but they are also suitable for creating an elegant nail design. It is very simple to decorate your nails with them - you can use polish with glitter or shimmer. For a burgundy manicure in combination with a beige shade, it is better to choose gold sequins - they will look harmonious with this palette.
