Make a brush stroke along the cuticle to the side roller, round the stroke along the contour of the nail (the brush changes position - now it lies in the hand parallel to the finger) and bring it to the free edges of the nail.

Side roller movement

Step 4: Repeat this movement on the other side of the nail. If the brush runs out of polish in the process, turn it over and continue.

Step 5: With a well wrung out brush, run along the end of the nail, sealing it.

If you put a top on it, it becomes shiny, like a regular varnish. You can make two nails shiny and leave the rest matte. This design looks good in dark or bright colors. On pastel colors, it is almost invisible.

4. Design "Leopard". On a dried substrate (for example, the color of coffee with milk), uneven spots are applied with a brush with a slightly darker varnish (beige) and, without waiting for them to dry, a black dot is added to each spot. An orange stick makes each dot look like a comma.


Design "Leopard"

This design is classic. It can be performed not only in natural colors, but also in avant-garde ones. A turquoise substrate with blue spots and black commas looks good.

5. Design "Zebra".

Zebra design

The third line is drawn a simple one along the previous one. The fourth is drawn with a thickening on the other side. The fifth is simple.

Decorate two nails, densely covering them with rhinestones of different sizes... Swarovski rhinestones are suitable, they can be purchased in a set. The largest stone is placed in the center, closer to the cuticle. There are smaller stones on both sides of it.

The smallest stones are placed on the edge of the nail. The space between large stones can be filled with gold broth... One small stone is placed on the rest of the nails in the center at the cuticle.

Rhinestone pencil

They put stones on wet varnish... The stone is taken by simply bringing an orange stick or a special pencil for rhinestones moistened with water to it and it sticks to it (there are special pencils on sale for attaching rhinestones). It is put on fresh varnish, straightened, trimmed, it sticks to the varnish and lets go of the stick.

Sterilization of instruments at home

In nail salons, sterilization of the instrument is carried out in a dry heat cabinet.

Manicure tools

At home, you can use an oven for this purpose. In a specially allocated bowl, you should lay out metal tools, turn on the oven at 250 degrees and heat for 15 minutes.

If during the procedure a wound was made and blood came out, the instrument is soaked in solution before sterilization. chlorhexidine or rubbed three times with 70% alcohol(in the presence of special pharmacy products, processing is best done with them, according to the instructions).

Nail files and orange sticks can also be soaked in a disinfectant solution... But if there was no blood while working with them, it is enough to wipe them.

Below you can find a detailed video on the sterilization of manicure instruments, some information will be useful to you at home.

What pharmacy products can be useful

In addition to chlorhexidine, you can buy 70% hawthorn tincture at the pharmacy. This alcohol solution can be used as a disinfectant.

The professional line of pharmaceutical sterilization products is very diverse. Disinfectants are divided into two types: for hands and for metal tools. The pharmacist at the pharmacy will always tell you what products are available.
You may also need glue BF-6... This is a medical glue for treating wounds. It is convenient for cutting, disinfects and seals the wound instead of a plaster.

It's good to have a remedy on hand from warts "Mountain celandine", a brown herbal balm. If a wart is found during the manicure procedure, you can immediately cauterize it with this balm.

Baths and oils to strengthen and grow nails after manicure

To keep your nails healthy, they need to be nourished and treated. Aggressive environment makes them thin and brittle, appear on them,. To avoid this, it is good to do with sea salt.

You don't have to buy expensive sea salt; the one sold in grocery stores will do. You can add it with a manicure for steaming nails.

In the process of saturating the nails with such water, a phenomenon called osmosis. This is the exchange of salts of two media. Nails, like the appendages of the skin, are the organ of excretion. Through microscopic holes on the surface of the nail, the nail effusion comes out.

After taking a course of antibiotics, it is formed very actively, preventing the artificial nails from sticking to the nail bed. That is why, after taking antibiotics, two weeks must pass before nail extension.

Those who have been in sea water for a long time on vacation notice improvements in the condition of their nails. Baths do not have to be done for a long time. 15 minutes is enough. This procedure can be carried out in the evening in front of the TV.

After the bath, hands are lubricated with a nourishing cream. The best creams - with fruit oils... It can be avocado, aloe, apricot oil. Just don't confuse them with essential oils. This is a completely different product.

If the cream says it contains mineral oil, it is better not to buy such a cream. These are products of chemical distillation of oil. Will not be good for nails.

You can always look beautiful, you just need to get used to it.

It is difficult to imagine the nails of a modern woman without an original manicure. Today women of fashion only do what they compete in who has the most fashionable and original manicure.

But often, we just don't have enough time to go to the salon and get a manicure.

We offer you several options for an original manicure for all occasions, which you can do yourself at home using simple improvised means.

But you should be patient, because not everything can work out the first time.

All that you need in order to become the owner of beautiful marigolds is multi-colored varnishes, special brushes for manicure, which can be purchased at any cosmetics store or other improvised means. More on this later and in more detail.

1. So, let's start with the simplest.

As for me, the easiest manicure option is a polka dot or dotted manicure. Such a manicure is as easy as shelling pears to do. All you need is a special brush with a ball at the end, or you can use a regular pen. Here's a good example.

2. Ombre manicure.

Popular and current ombre manicure, i.e. gradation from dark to lighter and vice versa, can be easily done at home. All you need is a few varnishes and a sponge or a piece of foam rubber.

There are two options for gradient manicure. The first and easiest option is to paint each nail with a monochromatic varnish with a color gradation from dark to light. Of course, if you have five varnishes of different shades of the same color, then the task is very much easier.

You can also do such a manicure using only two varnishes - any colored varnish and white.

The second version of the ombre manicure is a little more complicated, but still you can and even need to do it. Apply several strips of varnish of different colors to the sponge and quickly apply to the nail, carefully painting over the entire surface of the nail with horizontal movements. Carefully remove the remaining polish with a cotton swab.

3. Negative space.

The now popular manicure called "negative space" can also be done by each girl independently. To do this, you need to purchase various stickers for manicure in advance. These can be stencil stickers for a jacket or foil strips for manicure. What pattern to create is already the flight of your imagination. And we offer you several scheme options.

4. Geometric manicure.

In general, it is always relevant to depict various geometric shapes, stripes on the nails. And by the way, it's not very difficult. For this manicure, use special stickers or ordinary scotch tape.

5. Manicure "Frame".

Manicure frame is the trend today. It can be done in two ways. First: paint the nail with one color. This must be done very carefully, carefully painting over all the corners of the nail. Let the varnish dry. And then paint the nail with a second color. Do this in such a way that the bottom and sides of the nail remain unpainted.

And the second option: paint the nail in one color, and then, using a thin brush, circle the nail around the edges.

The so-called caviar manicure is also very popular now. There are special varnishes, and it can also be made using special small beads for manicure. All you need to do is paint over the nail and roll it in beads.

You've probably heard many times that a woman's hands speak volumes. A beautiful and unusual manicure makes a woman more confident, attractive and stylish. Of course, professional manicure is not available to all female representatives. But this is not a reason to be upset. A beautiful and unusual manicure at home can be easily done, while having several varnishes and devices that every housewife of the house definitely has. All you need is a non-standard approach and creative ideas. They will help you make an unusual manicure that will reflect the beauty's inner world.

In addition, a creative do-it-yourself manicure is more than just nail polish applied to your nails. This is a masterpiece that the girl creates herself, which means that it will be unique. Let's take a look at some of the most popular manicure options that can be easily replicated at home.

Water manicure

Such an unusual manicure, a photo of the variations of which you have probably seen more than once, has been popular for several years. It stands out for its richness, uniqueness, brightness and attractiveness. Although the process of creating such a manicure is quite complicated, you can master it. Even if the first attempts are unsuccessful, you should not despair. If you show perseverance and perseverance, nail art masterpieces can be created without leaving home.

An unusual water manicure allows you to create beautiful and original designs on the nails, the color and type of which completely depends on the imagination and ideas of the craftswoman.

Before you start applying varnish, you need to prepare your fingers. To do this, cut stencils from the tape in the form of the letter "P" so that they go around the entire nail plate. Then you need to collect barely warm water into the container and drip the selected varnishes a little bit in sequence, waiting for the previous layer to spread. To create a drawing in a container, you must use a stick. Run it over the layers of varnish, it will mix and create an unusual picture. Immediately after that, you can dip your nails in turn into the container, holding them for a few seconds just below the varnish film. Although the tape will protect the cuticle from excess varnish, small errors can still remain. You can use a cotton swab and nail polish remover to remove them.

Please note that an unusual manicure at home, a photo of which you once saw, can never be repeated identically. Indeed, in the process of applying water manicure, many factors play a role, such as the thickness of the varnish, the way of creating the pattern, the color range of varnishes. The unusual manicure described above cannot be created using gel polishes.

Newspaper manicure

Using an ordinary newspaper, you can also create an unusual manicure. The photo, of course, does not convey all its beauty, but it is simply necessary to try to make it at home.

First, apply the base under the varnish, then an even layer of white varnish. After it dries, you need to carefully put pieces of newspaper dipped in water or alcohol on your nails. In just 30 seconds, the drawing will already be on the nails. But it is necessary to remove the newspaper carefully, or better - using tweezers. And then it remains only to apply a fixer, which will make it possible to enjoy newspaper manicure for at least several days.

Matte manicure

Although there have been special varnishes for creating matte manicure for a long time, due to the high price, they are not available to everyone. But few people know that any glossy varnish can become matte in just a few seconds.

To do this, you need to apply the first ball of varnish, let it dry. After applying the second ball, each nail must be held over the steam of a preheated kettle for a few seconds. It is advisable to wait until the varnish is completely dry. Here is a little secret that will help you save money, but at the same time get a matte manicure no worse than in a professional salon.

Moon manicure

This type of manicure is quite popular, but there are so many variations that you can experiment on your own and create an original manicure yourself, using the varnishes that are in the cosmetic bag.

Although the process of creating a moon manicure is much more difficult than a French one, the result is well worth it.

The procedure for creating a manicure begins with the preparation of nails. Then you need to apply stencils and carefully apply layers of varnish. Only after the varnish is completely dry, you can remove the stickers and carefully, using a brush, apply the contrasting varnish to the nails. To fix the result, you need to apply a clear varnish.

Caviar (beaded) manicure

Although caviar manicure has recently appeared, it has become very popular. Such a manicure looks very impressive, although it is easier to make it at home than it seems at first glance. The name itself suggests that this manicure will need special beads.

First you need to apply 2 coats of varnish. After they are completely dry, prepare a container and pour microbeads into it. Then, in turn, apply transparent varnish to each nail and immediately dip the nail plate into beads, pressing slightly so that it is fixed. It will take about 15 minutes for the clear varnish to dry completely. Only then can the caviar manicure be fixed with transparent varnish.

There is a second way to create a beaded manicure. You can use a needle or toothpick to glue the beads. Caviar should be applied quickly. This method makes it possible to create caviar manicure using several colors of beads.

Tired of the classics? Then it's time to start experimenting with the already familiar French manicure. To diversify this type of manicure, you can make it unique by adding color. For example, draw a bright flower on a white line. For those who do not know how to apply drawings on nails, there is a slightly easier option - to buy special stickers or stencils.

Do not despair if there is no time or opportunity to visit a beauty salon in order to put your marigolds in order. To create an unusual manicure, it is enough to show imagination and find some free time. Stay beautiful no matter what!

Every girl should have beautiful and well-groomed hands. Since it is very simple to make a manicure at home, in order to always be neat, absolutely no costs are required.

Preparing nails

The first step is to prepare the nail plate and cuticle for further processing. To get started, you will need:

  1. Tweezers, trimmer;
  2. Scissors;
  3. File;
  4. Scrub, oils, cream;
  5. Degreaser (you can use alcohol or facial lotion).

To learn how to do a cool European manicure, you need to remember that the most important part is preparation. On this tap, the old coating is removed, the cuticle is cut off, the nails are filed and their surface is leveled. For the procedure, you can use a special apparatus or several files and hand tools (they must be sharpened before use).

Step-by-step instructions on how to prepare nails for a manicure at home:

  1. Old varnish is erased. Immediately after this, the marigolds are soaked in a bath. We recommend adding a little sea salt and iodine to the water - then the plate will become thicker and stronger;
  2. After 5 minutes of "soaking" the marigolds, you need to take out one finger at a time and check the cuticle. If it is easy to deform, then you can cut it. Gently file or a special stick, the skin is brought to the hole itself, and then trimmed. Depending on your experience, you can use a trimmer (for professionals) or tweezers (for beginners). The action is repeated with each nail;
  3. After trimming, you need to lubricate the cuticle with oil. Most often in spas, cocoa or shea is used for this purpose, which have excellent antimicrobial and regenerating properties;
  4. Next, the plate is leveled and the desired shape is given to the marigolds. For rough processing - formation, rigid tools are selected. For example, with diamond or mineral spraying. For soft - cleansing the nail from growths and irregularities, more gentle - silicone or wooden;
  5. When the treatment is completely over, it remains only to degrease the surface and the hole, remove the remaining oil from the cuticle;
  6. If everything is done, then sterilization of instruments is required. If it is done, that is, the main work is carried out by machines, then they are disassembled and washed in a special solution. Hand instruments are rinsed in Chlorhexidine.

In the same way, at home, a trim pedicure is carried out at home. After that, you can start designing.

Unedged or European manicure is carried out without tools - it is easiest to do it yourself. The plate is cleaned of varnish and grease, then a special gel is applied to the cuticle. It is noteworthy that when using the unedged technique, you do not need to soak your nails.

After applying the softener, a few minutes should pass, then, you simply move the skin closer to the hole. The cuticle is very pliable and soft. To remove it, you do not need to use any trimmers or scissors. It can even be removed with an orange stick. It remains to wipe the plate with a remover and cover with a base for further staining.

Simple edged manicure with regular varnish

At home, it is easiest to do a manicure on short nails with your own hands. In addition, it is on small plates that it will look most advantageous. All points are performed in the same way as described in the section above. After shaping and degreasing, the plate is covered with a base - it will fill the cracks and become a solid and even base for the paint.

Various types of manicure can be made with ordinary varnish:

  • On the water;
  • Gradient;
  • Art design and many others.

Let's dwell on the most common coating - it is very easy to do it yourself and does not require a lot of time. After the base has dried, a layer of colored varnish is applied on top of it. It should also dry completely. If the shade is not bright enough, then the surface is painted again.

In order for the manicure to last longer, a professional fixer is used. It performs several functions: it gives neatness, strengthens the plate, helps to remove delamination and prolongs the life of the varnish. The fixer is often enriched with various vitamin and mineral supplements.

Lunar manicure gel polish or shellac

The original moon manicure is becoming more and more popular, which is easily performed with both shellac and regular varnish. Of course, if we talk about convenience, then it is best to perform it with a gel - it lasts longer and it is easier for them to draw holes. In appearance, the lunar is the complete opposite of the French. If in a jacket only the tips of the nails are shaded with white (or another color), then in the lunar - the holes.

To make a professional lunar design, you need to prepare a set for manicure: these are trimming accessories, means for working with gel (removers, primers, etc.), an ultraviolet lamp.
