White jacket with sequins and rhinestones. Glitter nail design: the best manicure ideas in this style

Antipyretics for children are prescribed by a pediatrician. But there are emergency situations for fever in which the child needs to be given medicine immediately. Then the parents take responsibility and use antipyretic drugs. What is allowed to be given to infants? How can you bring down the temperature in older children? What are the safest medicines?

Classic white french

More than 30 years ago, an American entrepreneur and owner of a cosmetics company, Jeff Pink, came up with a very original idea for a unique manicure that would perfectly match any women's outfit - from elegant evening to everyday urban. This design was especially liked by Hollywood actresses - before that day they had to repaint marigolds several times a day, depending on the chosen outfit.

The idea of a new type of manicure was as follows: a pale pink nail plate was covered with a transparent, beige or light pink varnish, and the tips of the nails were decorated with a bright white rim. Fashionistas all over the world just gasped with delight when they saw how feminine and graceful the nails were designed in this way.

This type of manicure got the name "French" a little later, when Pink, before a fashion show in Paris, suggested that one of the models shade the tips of the nails with a bright white color. From that day on, the position of the jacket has strengthened even more. Today, white French manicure, like a little black dress, has become the standard of femininity and impeccability of style.

Advice! Try bleaching your nails with a special pencil before applying clear nail polish. With regular use, the minerals included in the composition will additionally strengthen the marigolds.

Lunar White and Reverse Frenchie

It is believed that the idea to cover with contrasting varnish not the tips of the nails, but, on the contrary, the area near the cuticle first came to Lady Gaga's mind. Today, the lunar French manicure (and the area painted over in this case really resembles the moon in shape) has also become a classic.

Lunar French manicure has also become a classic today.

Like a usual one, such an inverted jacket can be combined not only with colorless varnishes or pastel or pink tones, but also with other colors: from juicy red to avant-garde black.

The reverse jacket looks very unusual, in which the main area of the nails is painted over with white varnish, and, on the contrary, only the tips are covered with bright varnish. You can combine matte and glossy varnishes, as well as use silver and golden compositions in this type of nail design. Of course, you can replace white with any other shade. However, today we will talk specifically about a jacket, in which this color plays a dominant role.

Advice! Even very short marigolds can be decorated in the form of a jacket. At the same time, the contrast strip becomes very narrow and runs along the very edge of the nail. Short nails can also be styled as an inverted moon or reverse jacket.

Execution technique

We need two types of varnish, one of which is white, and the second is any contrasting one. We will also need:

a file with a large abrasive to give the nail plates the desired shape;
cuticle tweezers;
file with fine abrasive for polishing nails;
transparent base varnish, it can also be used as a finishing varnish;
a thin brush for painting or a special stencil for French manicure.

After thorough processing of the cuticle, filing the tips of the nails and polishing them, we proceed directly to the creation of a jacket. If you have some experience, you can simply draw it by hand with a brush. But today we will learn how to do French white manicure using stencils. They can be purchased at the store or cut out of regular duct tape with scissors.

So let's get started:

degrease the nails with a cleanser (water-alcohol solution) or nail polish remover;
cover them with a transparent varnish base and let it dry well;
now you need to completely paint over the nail plates with varnish of the desired shade;
as we already know, a strip of white varnish can be located on the edge of the nail or in the area of the hole; depending on the option chosen, carefully glue the stencil in the desired area; in order for the line to turn out perfectly even, it should go slightly onto the skin;
take in our hands a regular varnish brush and paint over the selected area; to obtain a perfectly flat surface, it is very convenient to use the "fence" technology, in which, with each subsequent movement of the brush, it slightly goes over the previous stroke;
dry the marigolds;
we take a colorless finishing varnish in our hands and fix the result;
so that the composition lasts longer, we try to paint over not only the horizontal surface, but also the area of the cut of the nail, for this the brush should go slightly under it.

Advice! After polishing the nail plates with a file with a fine abrasive, the varnish lasts much longer.

Hollywood manicure

For the first time this type of nail art was demonstrated by the models of Christian Dior at one of the shows. Its main difference is the thin line running along the smile line. In the classical form, it separates the main part of the nail plate from the regrown nail or the edges of the hole. When performing an asymmetric jacket (sometimes it is called an anti-jacket), its position and shape can change and be arbitrary.

The color of such a strip and its width also vary. Depending on the idea, it can be performed not only with varnish, but also with foil or even rhinestones.

Advice! The original moon manicure, unfortunately, has one feature - it is able to visually shorten the nail plate. Therefore, if it is too wide, it is better to use a classic jacket.

French millennium

This type of French nail art differs from the classic in that the tip of the marigold is finished with a golden, silver varnish or a composition containing sparkles or the smallest metal dust. This kind of design is ideal for dinner parties or holiday parties. It is not difficult to make it, but the white jacket on the nails (see photo) looks very original!

Be sure to pay attention to the compositions designed to create the "cat's eye" effect. The kit, in addition to the varnish itself, includes small magnets of a special shape. When brought to dry nails, the smallest particles of metal line up in bizarre patterns. After coating with this varnish, the edges of your nails will acquire visually 3D volume and will shimmer with every movement.

Advice! High-quality varnish should not reach behind the brush, but also not be too liquid. Be sure to also check its color on a special tester. After all, the shade of the varnish applied to the nails always differs from the color of the bottle itself.

Twist French

The latest novelties of the white jacket (photo) include a twist - a type of French manicure in which not two, but several colors are used at once, most often from three to five. That is, the tips of the nails or the area of the hole are painted over with not one, but several contrasting stripes.

Their colors are chosen depending on the overall style. So, white can be combined with red, blue, purple and other bright colors. The black and white stripe running along the edges of the nails looks very unusual, in combination with their finishing with small shimmering pebbles and broths.

Advice! It is not recommended to apply varnish to wet nails. Otherwise, it will crack when dry.

Custom form

Indeed, why is it necessary to paint over the tips of the nails only in a standard way? Modern fashionistas have long changed the shape of the usual French manicure: a white jacket 2018 can be deep with a very wide smile line, have the shape of an asymmetric arc, a strip that runs almost across the nail, consist of several lines, a combination of triangles, squares, waves, broken lines, etc. This type of nail art is convenient because it can be matched to any outfit.

Individual nail plates can be designed in a similar way. For example, 2–3 of them look like a classic jacket, and 1–2 asymmetric ones contrast sharply against their background.

Advice! Matte and glossy varnishes can be combined even on one nail. For example, its edge can be finished with a shiny varnish, and the main part of it can remain matte.

The combination of a jacket with other types of nail art

Open any page on the Internet dedicated to this type of manicure, and you will see not hundreds - thousands of such combinations. White classic jacket can be combined with all existing types of manicure:

lunar;
marble: outwardly it seems that the thinnest stone plates are glued to the tips of the nails;
leopard: a jacket is made in the form of bright color spots of any shade;

cat's eye;
sandy (sugar): using varnishes of a special composition in the form of the smallest inclusions;
drawings and rhinestones, etc.

Advice! Glossy and pearlescent varnishes are best used in summer or for evening looks. Matte varnishes are ideal for colder seasons.

White French ombre

Initially, the technology of a smooth transition of contrasting or dark and light colors began to be used when dyeing fabrics, and only then it occurred to stylists to create them on nails and even hair. Moreover, such a gradient ombre can be easily recreated even at home. To do this, you only need a sponge with small pores (it is better to use an old sponge), white varnish and any color with or without sparkles:

we paint the nails with a base colorless varnish;
on a small piece of foil with a brush, draw two stripes: white and colored in such a way that one slightly overlaps the other;

take a piece of sponge and saturate it with this mixture of varnishes;
we print the result on one of the nails;
again apply varnishes to the foil and repeat the procedure;
dry your nails; it does not matter if the coating is not too even, it will be covered by the finishing varnish;
we dry the marigolds and admire the result.

Delicate French obmre

Advice! It is better to dilute dried varnish not with acetone, but with a special agent. In this case, the composition will turn out to be of better quality and more homogeneous.

Stylized (designer) white jacket with drawings and rhinestones

A white jacket with a design (photo) is another type of French manicure. Therefore, if the standard options seem too boring to you, trim the nails with any kinds of patterns and lay them out with flickering pebbles. Their tips can be formed both in the form of the simplest small peas or chaotically arranged lines, as well as compositions consisting of the most complex patterns: flowers, images and animals. On your nails, if you wish (if, of course, the chosen style allows it), you can even depict portraits. Moreover, the longer the nails, the more space for creativity. But do not overdo it - after all, naturalness is in trend in 2018.

Rhinestones and designs perfectly complement the classic jacket.Its characteristic feature is the wide use of various types of decoration - from delicate lace to gold, silver foil

Advice! To create the simplest patterns in the form of dots or stripes, it is absolutely not necessary to have a special brush. It is enough to arm yourself with a toothpick or a needle of a suitable size.

A beautiful manicure from a professional master is every girl's dream. But just not everyone has the opportunity and desire to spend half a day in the salon in order to find such beauty. An excellent solution in this situation can be your own acquaintance with various designs. And one of these simple options is a jacket with sparkles that will sparkle cute on your nails.

Millennium French: main features

So, classic manicure has won its popularity for a long time. But time goes by, fashion changes, and in order to correspond to it, you have to come up with something new. One of these novelties is a brilliant French manicure, or, as it is commonly called, "millennium french".

The basis of this nail art is the classic design option with the preservation of the natural color of the nail plate and the highlighting of the tip. But the main feature is the sparkling decor, which becomes the main highlight of the design.

Interestingly, white or any other color can be used for the free edge.

French with sequins can be made in various styles:

You can perform a French manicure using glitter both on natural nails and on gel or acrylic claws. Depending on this, the technique is also selected.

Sparkling French manicure with gel

Glitter french gel nails are the most common design option. The technique of execution is characterized by simplicity and uncomplicatedness, and to create this design, a minimum amount of knowledge in the field of gel extension will be quite enough.

According to the standard scheme, we prepare nails for extension and make a substrate of medium thickness. We give the desired shape.
Using camouflage, we form the nail bed, making sure that our smile line is as accurate as possible. We dry the gel in a lamp.
With the help of a router, we correct the smile line.
We mix transparent gel and glitter of the chosen color. We spread the material on the tip. Dry in a lamp.
Cover the entire surface with a transparent gel (sculptural layer). After its complete hardening in the lamp, we file the nail, removing all errors, we polish.
We finish the work by applying a transparent coating. Optionally, you can complement your jacket with a pattern or rhinestones.

The principle of creating a design using acrylic is the same. Only in this case are glitters mixed with transparent acrylic.

It is important, unlike working with pigments, white gel or acrylic will not work for mixing with glitters. Only transparent material is needed.

Decor of natural nails in the style of "millennium french"

For the French manicure we need on natural nails, you will need varnish, to which glitter has already been added, or transparent varnish and glitters (sparkling sand can be used) separately. It is also useful to use stencils that will help in creating a neat smile line.

We cover the nail with a base varnish. For this, both classic natural shades and black or dark blue can be used.
When the varnish is completely dry, we glue the stencils.
Apply a shiny varnish to the free tip. If the materials are used separately, then first apply transparent varnish and, without waiting for it to dry, sprinkle it with sparkles. We simply blow off the excess (blow in the direction from the cuticle to the edge of the nail).
Finally, apply a clear coat.

We make an inverted white or colored jacket according to the same plan, only the sparkles are applied not to the free edge, but in the cuticle area.

Fashion trends, novelties, trends - every season they come up with something interesting. It is not always possible to keep up with innovations, and it is not necessary either. The well-established classics remain in fashion.

In manicure, it is a white jacket. It is difficult to find something more perfect. A neat, aristocratic look will suit absolutely any length, shape of nails, perfectly emphasize the elegance of hands, and is relevant for every outfit.

Why the white jacket has become a classic

The relevance of nail design changes quite often. New nail art techniques are being developed, fashion dictates its own rules.

Despite this, the white jacket on the nails remains in high esteem. And all because it has a number of undeniable advantages:

suitable for any occasion (for a holiday or every day);
looks equally good on the nails of ladies of different professions;
the shape, length of the plates does not matter;
there is no need for a careful selection of the image and style;
hands with a jacket look feminine, well-groomed, elegant;
accepts additional methods of decorating nails;
to create does not require special skills, cunning tools.

The versatility of such a manicure made it a leader among all the variety of nail designs. How gentle and soft the white jacket looks on the nails can be seen in the photo of the fingers decorated in this style.

How to make the perfect jacket

French is always a win-win option for covering nails. In order for the manicure to be perfect, you just need to carefully perform the processing and draw a successful smile line.

If these conditions are not met, hands with a jacket will repel, not attract attention.

To achieve unsurpassed coverage even at home, the following guidelines must be followed:

It is not always within the power of a skilled craftsman to draw a smile line by hand, therefore, for reliability, it is better to use special stickers.

They are well fixed, allowing you to accurately draw the correct lane. After applying the line, without waiting for the varnish to dry, the Velcro is torn off with a sharp movement. This will keep the white line neat and will not need correction.

In case of dissatisfaction with the result, there is no need to rush to irretrievably erase the coating.

Minor adjustments in the form of additional decor can save the day. Rhinestones, sequins, drawing or just stickers can cover the flaws. In this case, you do not need to be able to draw.

The main thing is to have a sense of style. Asymmetry can be the highlight of the new decor.

A white jacket with a pattern always looks fashionable and stylish. Complementing the classic coating is not only a way to eliminate flaws, but also an opportunity to diversify a strict image.

At the same time, varnishes of different colors can act as a decor, because the nails of a white jacket with a pattern are perfectly combined. The classic base will be the perfect backdrop for any decor.

Shellac coating "white french"

French manicure with shellac coating is somewhat more difficult to perform. There are 2 application options:

separate execution of each zone;
overlapping one of the layers.

Practical experience indicates that it is best to apply the background coat first and then draw the smile line. The step-by-step execution instructions are as follows:

Thorough nail polish. Particular attention is paid to grinding, degreasing.

Application of base base, cure for 2 minutes using a lamp.

Distribution of the background shade over the main surface. As a result, the edge intended for the white coating should remain free. After application, drying takes place for 2 minutes.

White shellac is distributed along the free edge, drying is carried out in the same way. In case of unevenness, the procedure is repeated.

Particular attention is paid to the end of the nail. It must be carefully processed without going over the inner surface.

Top coat application, regular drying. Finally, the sticky layer is removed.

The advantage of shellac is that you can adjust the resulting layer as much as you like before drying. The described method allows you to do this most easily.

Decorating a white jacket

Looking through a photo of a white jacket, you can note how good it is in itself, but additional decoration is suitable for a special occasion. To do this, you need to do:

demarcation of the white edge and background base using a contrasting color, for example, black;
applying sequins or rhinestones to the free edge. Ring finger plates can be completely covered with this decor;
making drawings on several nails. These can be abstractions, flowers, curls. Use contrasting shades, foil, stickers;
decor with newspaper or "fur".

White jacket is the perfect field for imagination. Decorating can be very diverse. The main thing is that the design emphasizes the style and image.

A white jacket is always a good choice. Such a coating will give grace and expressiveness to any appearance. Will make the owner a stylish lady.

With a regular dry brush. To do this, you can use the most common stationery paint brush. Manicure your nails: peel them off and apply a coat of base polish. It is necessary to apply glitter on fresh varnish, paying particular attention to each nail in turn. Dip the brush into a jar of glitter. The bristles of the brush will easily grab large amounts of glitter and hold them in place. While the varnish is "wet" and fresh, shake off a little brush over the nail, if necessary, tap on it with your finger. Then blow on your nail. A jet of air will "brush away" the excess amount of sparkles. Apply a layer of clear fixer polish over the glitter. Manicure ready

Dip a brush for painting on nails in colorless varnish and paint patterns on the nail with it, or cover a specific part. With a dry brush, pick up the glitter and pour it from the brush onto fresh, colorless varnish. Blow off the excess and coat the nail again with the clear nail polish. The manicure is ready!
Glitter on the nail in the style of "French". To do this, you need to apply a colorless varnish to a certain part, not necessarily to the edge of the nail, but to any other. Dip your painted toenail in a jar of glitter. Use your lips to blow off excess glitter from the nail and cover the nail plate with a colorless fixer varnish. The manicure is ready!
Attaching sparkles. This method is suitable for large sequins. You need to paint the nail with any base color, with a toothpick or a needle, pick up each sparkle from the jar separately and attach it to the nail. Cover the top of the manicure with a colorless fixer varnish. The manicure is ready!

Apply glitter in any convenient way, but in any case, cover them with a fixative varnish so that in everyday life they do not cling to and remove from the nail plate. In addition, the nail covered with fixative has a pleasant surface: glossy, even and smooth.

Blue color and its shades have been at the peak of popularity for several years now. Women try to pursue him in everything: in clothes, accessories, make-up and, of course, in manicure. Nails of this color are relevant both in winter and summer. In the summer they give many associations with coolness, sea, freshness and cocktails. In winter, they correspond to snow, frost, frost and the color of the sky.

Blue and light blue nails go well with glitter. It is only important to know one point: since the blue color belongs to the "cold" color type, then you should choose sparkles, focusing on this fact. If you make the wrong choice, you risk ruining the impression of your manicure and making it very "cheap" and not neat in appearance. It is best to choose sequins: gray, black, white, mirror, blue, green, silver.

How to remove glitter from nails?

Removing glitter from nails can be much more difficult than regular nail polish. However, you need to make an effort and then you can achieve what you want. Apply a generous amount of nail polish remover to a cotton pad and apply it to your nail for a while, pressing firmly with your fingers. After a few minutes, rub off the glitter polish using firm pressure.

This procedure must be repeated two to three times in order to completely remove the glitter from the nails. If you can't, you can use a sanding file, which will "clean off" those sparkles that are strongly adhered to the nail plate.

Video: "Simple Glitter Manicure"

This type of manicure is very popular for its beauty and elegance. It is quite easy to do it at home. The variety of types allows you to choose a design suitable for any occasion: everyday day, party, wedding, etc.

A standard French manicure looks very natural: the main coating is done in light pastel colors, and the tip of the nail is covered with a dense white varnish, and a transparent top is additionally applied to the nails to fix it. Initially, French manicure appeared in America, but later very quickly became fashionable and spread throughout the world. The secret of the success of a French manicure is that hands look very neat and well-groomed with it, and it does not take much time to complete it. Today, to create a French manicure, modern gel polishes are used that dry instantly and stay on nails for a very long time.

Moon manicure or moon jacket

The arc at the bottom of the nail is often duplicated at its base. Do it in the same white color or leave it uncoated, laying out the border with rhinestones.
