Manicure ombre - variety and technique

Types of manicure. To begin with, you need to decide what kind of manicure ombre you want to do. The easiest option for those girls who want to get a stylish manicure in a short time is not the effect of the gradient on an individual nail, but the gradient effect that passes from the nail to the nail. That is, you select five shades of the same color and just paint one nail with a dark varnish, the next one - with a lighter shade and so on. But this is, so to speak, a simplified version of the manicure with the effect of ombre. Still much more correct and interesting option is the gradient effect on each nail. By the way, it can also be different. That is, you can make the transition of the color of one shade, only changing its saturation, and you can pick up contrasting tones, which will look more vivid and original.

Technique of manicure. Doing this manicure for the first time, be prepared for the fact that the result can turn out to be imperfect. But having made yourself an ombre on the nails several times, you will already master the technique, understand its principle and will get the desired result in the shortest possible time. To make yourself such a manicure, you need only three steps:

  1. First, apply a nail base on the nails, and then cover them with the varnish of the shade that you decided to make the base.
  2. Allow the coating to dry, and then on some plate or bowl, pour a little varnish of the shade that you chose as the second for the ombre effect. Then take a cosmetic sponge or a piece of a regular sponge, dab it in this varnish and quickly apply it briefly to the edge of the nail.
  3. And, of course, do not forget to cover your creation with a protective varnish to enjoy it for a long time, since without a protective layer such a manicure will quickly peel off and generally lose its attractiveness.
