Summer patterns and motifs for painting nails give the author unlimited freedom of action, revealing space for imagination. A variety of combinations of bright colors and shades will remind you of the holiday, the sea, the beach, which so delight in the summer and warm your soul in the cold season.

Design nails "Shell" - a great way to plunge into the atmosphere of summer holidays, as well as emphasize the style. It is ideal for bright and expressive onions in a golden-blue color scheme, will complement the necessary accent with a monotonous gentle dress, emphasize the themes of the red-white-blue image with the marine mood.

To decorate your marigolds with spectacular manicure, you can go to the salon to a good master. But if you have at least initial art skills, fantasy and good taste, try making a manicure with seashells on your own. And our simple advice will be a good help.

Colors and shades

Before you get started, think through the design. There are two ways: to adhere to the natural color scheme or deliberately bright colors without claiming to be natural. If you have chosen the first method, varnishes of several colors will be useful to you: beige, soft blue, white, golden. Do not try to use a saturated blue - sea water is not that color. And in conjunction with the canary yellow design of the nail "Shell" will make your manicure more like a cartoon about Mignon, and not a gentle beach.

The second way does not limit the flight of fantasy. Decorate your nails with bright pink, light green, purple seashells, add to them sparkling starfish or mischievous fish. What could be better for a beach party?

Invoices

There are several ways to make the nail design "Shell" even more effective. The relief and combination of different textures will create a decent background for the ornament, and will also add additional accents.

Create an invoice resembling sand, you can use a variety of techniques. For example, use the manicure caviar of the smallest fraction. Beige, peach, light yellow.

To create the effect of water, too, there are many ways, for example, a mirror manicure, gradient, krakle. Do not forget about the spectacular combination of glossy and matte surfaces - this helps to give depth and volume. Feel free to use spectacular additions, for example, half-beads in the form of pearls.

Necessary materials

Special stickers, decals, stamping, fimo bars for nails - all this can be great to facilitate the task. For example, the nail design "Shell", a photo of which is placed below, is made with the help of dies. They help to achieve an excellent result due to accurate thin lines.

If your plans are exclusively for painting, you will only need a thin brush and dots to work. In some cases, a thin needle may be useful. It is very convenient to use when working with a sponge or a small piece of cotton wool soaked with a liquid for removing varnish. During the painting about her, you can wipe the brush and other tools so that the remains of varnish do not dry on them. It will be relevant if you work with gel - then your marigolds will turn out neat.

Order of work

A few simple tips will help you, if you use conventional varnishes or practice nail design with gel. "Shell" - a drawing that is performed by one technique. Directly the technology of painting is not so complicated as it may seem:

• The first thing we do is a standard hygiene manicure so that our hands look neat.
• We treat the surface of the nail plates with a soft buffing movement.
• We apply a transparent lacquer, which protects the nail from pigmentation.
• Cover the plate with the selected background lacquer. For example, light blue or beige. If necessary, repeat the procedure two or three times.
• With the help of dots (or even a toothpick), we begin to draw the silhouette of the shell. All performed movements must be pressing.
• When the varnish dries, we put a transparent layer - it will fix the pattern and level the surface.
• If you work with gel, dry every nail under a special lamp.

Practical tips

A beautiful beach landscape and a light sea breeze inspire the creation of charming miniature masterpieces. To design the nails "Shell" turned neat, follow the advice of specialists:

• Choosing a background, remember that the shells look great in different shades of blue, blue, turquoise. This combination creates the illusion of the underwater kingdom.
• Do not skimp on a good instrument, do not forget to take care of it. A thin brush and good dots will greatly facilitate the work - drawing shells with these tools is not difficult.
• If the design of your nails "Shell", devised by you, is different from the effect obtained, do not be lazy to redo the work. Correct mistakes right away, until the result is completely satisfactory.
• Learn to train, practice on the draft. If you like the nautical manicure and you want to improve your skills in this direction, create an album or a folder in which you will save the images you like. Remember: the work of other artists should be used only for inspiration, but not for imitation.
• If it seems to you that the shells look lonely on the nails, dilute them with sea stars, octopuses, pearls.
• At the same time, remember the sense of proportion. Perhaps, you need only a few decorative elements for the whole manicure. Beat the idea of a "special nail," decorating only nameless fingers with shells. Very impressive looks drawn on two or three adjacent fingers a large detailed shell. The design of nails with gel-varnish can be supplemented with a pair of overlaid elements, imitating a precious metal. But if you do not everyday, but a festive manicure, which, according to the idea and should be spectacular and expressive, it is quite possible to distinguish "special nails", and decorate the rest in the same style, but more modestly.

Decorations in style

Selected rings and bracelets underline the design of the nails "Shell". Be sure to outplay this idea by decorating your fingers with jewelry with sea inhabitants, boats, anchors or sea knots. This image perfectly suits not only for holidays, but also for a cozy winter evening, when you so want sun and warmth.
