A manicure with bright red polish is a classic that is not influenced by current fashion trends. It first appeared in the 60s of the last century in Italy and immediately became the trend of the season, opening up limitless scope for women to experiment with their image. Designers used short manicure red to tie together all the elements of the wardrobe, trying to make the image of a dynamic lady as laconic and sophisticated as possible.

Since then, red manicure has been popular among connoisseurs of romantic or classic style. It is used in combination with other shades, complemented by shiny details, holographic coating or graphic patterns. Let's look at the most spectacular manicure options using bright red polish.

This design is used by girls who like to stand out from others. A successful combination of shades allows you to visually lengthen the original shape of the nail plate, making it more elongated and graceful. A combined manicure can be created in two ways:

  1. Graphic marking of the nail plate using stencils. To do this, apply a red tone to the prepared nail so as not to touch the cuticle contour line. Try to paint the nail on all sides to avoid white gaps or an undesirable shading effect. When the red base has dried, a stencil in the form of stripes, squares, triangles or circles is glued onto the nail. The nail is re-varnished, but now black (it is better to use varnish with a brush with a sharp tip). When the coating has dried, you need to carefully remove the stencils. Finally, we use a clear varnish with a mirror sheen.
  2. Partial painting of the nail with black and blue pigment. This is an easy way to create an elegant manicure with a red and black design. It can be done at home using varnishes with a thin brush. Initially, the nail is covered with a single-color varnish. It is best to use burgundy or a beautiful red. When the nail plate is dry, take the pigment with a thin brush and start drawing stripes, imitation lace or voluminous polka dots. Here you can fully express your imagination and turn your wildest ideas into reality.

Important! If you decide to paint your nails red and black, then the free length of the regrown edge should not exceed two millimeters. These are rules of good manners that others will certainly appreciate.

Red-white

This color combination is very popular because it allows you to create an elegant manicure that can be used both in everyday life and for attending special events. Red and white design nails are usually done using stencils, volumetric Chinese painting or acrylic plasticizers, which allow you to create decorative flowers using the 3D technique. It can be decorated with rhinestones, an ombre gradient transition or a floral pattern applied using a stamp.

Red with gold

This is a type of formal manicure, which is created using shellac, matte finish, glitter, gel polymer or regular varnish. To make the golden decor look bright and laconic, you should follow the recommendations of world-famous stylists:

  • You should not use a bright red shade for the background. It is better to give preference to dark colors. On them, the golden decor will look expressive, without distracting attention or being conspicuous.
  • The shape of the nails should be almond-shaped or ellipsoidal. Then the fingers visually lengthen, which makes the hand more graceful.
  • Do not wear with this manicure silver jewelry. They do not harmonize with gold.
  • To make the manicure more natural and stylish, it is recommended to matte the dark red background.

For gold decor, acrylic paints, pearlescent or glossy foil, modern gel polish with glitter or rubbing are suitable.


Red + silver

This gentle manicure is relevant in any situation. It is an example of a conservative style, moderately bright and laconic. The trend of the season is a combined design, when one ring finger decorated with voluminous silver glitter, pebbles or pearl rub. You can cover the tip with silver varnish, make a shiny painting or a wavy snake - it all depends on individual preferences.

Red with glitter

If you want to make a chic evening manicure, then a fashionable polish with glitter will help with this. The base of the nail plate must be made dark red, purple or crimson, and then partially or completely covered with a shiny pigment. Remember a few tips:

  • If you use extensions with colored gels, then you need to place the glitter on the sticky layer. After this, they should be covered with a vinyl or matte finish so that the outer surface of the nail plate is smooth and even.
  • If necessary, you can quickly remove glitter from your nails by applying shellac remover or a regular solvent. After 5 seconds, wrap your nails in foil and remove it after 10 minutes. After this, the glitter will come off on its own, and you can safely do a new manicure.

Glitter manicure is the trend of 2020. It is best to give preference to iridescent options that emphasize the shape of the nails and look harmonious in tandem with red polish.

Red-blue

If you are a beginner master, then this design will help surprise clients or make your own hands well-groomed. This idea appeared in America when stylists decided to bring back the avant-garde style into fashion, adapting it to current trends. For more than 10 years, the combination of red and blue shades has been considered a sign of impeccable taste, so it’s time to get a manicure:

  1. With volumetric applications, using acrylic powder and primer, polymer plasticizer or blue gel.
  2. Red jacket along the line of the overgrown nail, decorating the hole with blue rhinestones.

To make the final manicure look bright, use rich colors in your work. You can also experiment with geometric stencils, making one or more nails more expressive.

Red-pink

This option is relevant in the summer, when you are going on vacation or decide to supplement casual wardrobe an expressive touch.

These colors don't have much contact with each other, therefore, it is customary to use additional pigment as a binding element - turquoise, black or white. One of the red nails can be decorated with a blooming rose, a turquoise flower with a pink center, or a delicious strawberry.


Beige-red

This is a fashionable manicure that looks perfect in tandem with gold jewelry, ceramic jewelry and business wardrobe items. The beige tone can be used as a base tone or surface pigment, using it to draw abstractions, roses, lilies or geometric patterns, taking into account the characteristics of the original shape of the nails.

Dark red

This is a classic trend that is used everywhere by world famous nail technicians. In photos in glossy magazines you can often see top models with similar nail designs that highlight their beauty. female hands and emphasizes the accuracy of the fingers. The most popular decor options are:

  1. green and beige ornament made using thick gels or shellac;
  2. a path or figure made of rhinestones, silver crystals or sequins;
  3. a transparent hole, which is sealed with a special stencil before applying the main tone.

To give your manicure a solemn look, you can use 3D painting techniques or metal overlays that are fixed with acrylic glue.


Matte design

This is a novelty from past years, which appealed to all fashionistas in 2020. To create it, you need a matte finish coat, which can be applied to the entire nail plate or partially, thus creating simple patterns. The main rules for creating a flawless matte manicure are:

  1. The main pigment tone should be dark. In our case, the best choice would be burgundy, brick and cherry shades.
  2. If you want to diversify your manicure with expressive decor, then it is better to give preference to simple patterns made in achromatic colors.

Advice! Do not decorate matte nails with a lot of rhinestones. This can ruin your manicure and also distract the attention of others from the stylish texture of the nail plate.

French

French manicure involves partially painting the nail plate along the line of the regrown edge. To make such a design step by step, you need to:

  • degrease the nail using an acid primer or a cotton pad soaked in wine vinegar;
  • cover the outer surface with transparent or flesh-colored varnish;
  • stick a semicircular or triangular stencil along the line of the regrown edge, then apply red varnish;
  • remove the stencils and cover the nail plate with finish.

To make your nails sparkle like a vinyl picture, use finishing varnishes with the addition of three-dimensional polymers. French manicure can be decorated with rhinestones, transfer stickers or a simple pattern.

The design with holes is suitable for lovers of retro style. It involves leaving the hole natural or highlighting it with a contour color that matches the selected tone. The line of the hole can be highlighted with a thread of crystals, adhesive pearlescent tape or acrylic paints.

Fashionable nail length

Whatever aspect of fashion we touch upon, the main requirement for 2016 is natural simplicity and naturalness. This rule was no exception for the length of nails.



Gone are the nails that sometimes interfered with even the simplest everyday activities. But just recently, fashionistas had to endure the inconvenience of working at a computer, dialing telephone numbers, and even doing laundry and washing dishes with fashionable manicure and became an extremely difficult task. On the other hand, those ladies whose profession imposed restrictions on such nails (doctors, nurses, cooks and many others) could only sigh enviously when looking at the fingers of their friends.





Today things are different. Fashion shows say that the most relevant length is one at which the free edge will not protrude by more than 3 mm, and even better if it is completely absent. This rule applies to both natural and extended nails.

A short length has a lot of advantages: it looks neat, does not interfere with household chores and production functions, and makes it easier to care for, because short nails break much less often.

As for the form, here too nature dictates fashion. It is best to give the nail plate a natural oval or almond shape.





The almond shape is especially recommended for those whose fingers are not long enough and are slightly plump, because due to the fact that it is slightly tapered, it visually lengthens the fingers. But the main thing here is not to get carried away and not to make your nails sharp, so as not to give them an awkward look.





For those who like square nails, stylists recommend smoothing out sharp corners by using a nail file to give them a slightly rounded look.

French manicure - an elegant classic

As for nail design, the scope for creativity is almost unlimited, but elegant, discreet options still hold the palm. French manicure is an exemplary example of this style.

One of the advantages of French is that it universal option, with whom you can go “both to the feast and to the world.” It will suit both evening wear and everyday look.



For a long time, French manicure meant covered clear varnish nails with a white striped edge. Currently, the variety of options is difficult to even list: shape, color scheme, decorative elements, materials - all this gives unlimited scope for creativity.







If you want to make this manicure more elegant, for example, for some special occasion, then you can apply additional decor to one of the nails. This could be a slider, one or more rhinestones, or a neat design. The most important thing is that the decor does not look provocative and does not stand out from the general concept of the manicure.







Another way to diversify your manicure is to give your smile lines an interesting shape. Instead of the traditional straight stripe, try a wave, or a triangle-shaped smile. Thanks to this, you will get an interesting image that fully meets fashion requirements.

However, you should not think that all other options for French are prohibited. The good thing about fashion is that it always offers a choice, so if you like a colored jacket, go for it! But don’t forget that there are certain rules that you should definitely follow next year.





Firstly, the colors of the varnish should be moderately contrasting - you should not choose those that differ from each other by more than two or three tones.

Secondly, the winter season suggests subdued colors, but with the arrival of spring they should be replaced with brighter shades.

Lunar manicure

One of the varieties of the French manicure is the moon manicure, which has long been loved by all fashionistas, also known as “Hollywood”. His distinctive feature consists in the fact that the contrasting “smile” highlights not the edge of the nail, but the hole at its base.







2016 promises to breathe a new wave of popularity into this type of nail design. Almost all contrasting combinations will be in demand, but the most relevant, as in the case of a traditional French jacket, will be pastel colors, symbolizing tenderness and softness.





The smile can have different shapes: convex, repeating the natural lines of the hole, concave or completely non-standard: wavy, triangular, heart-shaped and others for which you or the master have enough imagination. A perfectly acceptable option would be a manicure, which does not involve painting over the hole, but rather drawing a thin strip along the cuticle line.





It will be interesting to look at a mix of French and lunar manicure, in which both the edge of the nail and the hole at the base are highlighted.





Decorative elements will be an excellent addition, subject to a sense of proportion. For special cases, it would be appropriate to use metallic coatings and varnishes with shimmers.

Strips created using adhesive tape are thin and neat. By being creative, you can create different patterns using these strips and varnishes of different colors. However, it is worth remembering that too many details will look tasteless.



Scotch tape can be used on all nails, or you can select just one or two. This tape looks good as a way to highlight the edge of the nail when french manicure.
