General recommendations

A nude manicure with a design (photos are presented below) requires special wear rules.

• Constant hydration of the cuticle. Dry and torn cuticles can quickly ruin even the most beautiful finish. The problem is especially relevant in winter, when the skin is irritated by wind and frost. To keep your hands looking beautiful, you need to apply a moisturizer daily, rubbing in. If the cuticle is undernourished, a special oil can be purchased.
• Household chemicals + gloves. So that the coating does not crack, does not lose its brightness and accuracy, all household chores must be done with gloves, especially when using disinfectants for the toilet and floor. They have the most aggressive composition for the skin and artificial materials, which causes irritation and destruction of the coating.
• Accuracy. Light nails get very dirty. If you have to write often with a pen, then you need to constantly monitor so that it does not get on the varnish. Rinse off the paste is problematic.

• You need to buy nail polish remover. It is necessary for light matte manicure, the tool will help remove paste, cosmetics and other contaminants from the surface of the manicure without destroying the coating (if it is made with gel polish).
• You can apply regular clear varnish. Some girls apply transparent varnish on gel polish, which protects a light manicure from dirt. For example, if a pen gets in, ordinary varnish is easily removed, and the coating remains intact.

Techniques and methods

Manicure can be done in several ways. Now the most popular coating material is gel polish, which is based on building gel and regular varnish. This coating is performed in 3 stages.

• Withdrawal. If there is already a gel polish coating on the nails, then it must be removed. This can be done with a special liquid. The top layer of the material is removed with a file, the solution is poured onto a small piece of a cotton pad, it is applied to the nail and wrapped in foil. After 10-20 minutes. the coating comes off easily. This method has a big drawback - the liquid causes a burning sensation, and sometimes allergies. The safest way is to remove it with a manicure machine using a ceramic or carbide cutter. If regular varnish has been applied to the nails, it can be easily removed with a special liquid.
• Sawdust form / manicure. The shape of the nails is given with a file, the movements should always be parallel to the nail. After this stage, you need to remove the top layer with a buff and lift the cuticle with a pusher. Now you need to start your manicure. The most common and cleanest type of manicure is classic. The fingers are briefly immersed in warm water, then the pterygium is removed with a pusher, and the cuticle is cut off with nippers. In addition, a combined manicure is often used; it is done on dry hands. With the help of the manicure apparatus and the "Flame" cutter, the pterygium is removed, the pocket is cleared. Next, using scissors, the cuticle is cut.
• Coating. Degrease your nails before applying the base. Then you can apply a primer to increase the wearing time. First, the base is applied in a thin layer, the entire surface of the nail is painted over.Next, a large drop is taken and with its help architecture is created. In order for the base to be well distributed, the finger needs to be turned over, creating an arch. The nail is sent to the lamp for 30-60 seconds. Then a colored coating is applied, each layer is dried for 30-60 seconds. In the last step, the top is used, with its help you need to perform the final alignment to create the perfect highlight.
