- Stickers-applications in the form of lace, which can be purchased in specialized stores. Such a sticker is applied very quickly, but the pattern is usually unstable and quickly erased.
- Drawing of a drawing on a nail manually or by means of stamping (special cliché with a drawing). The latter option is particularly often used in various salons, but if desired, a stitching cliché can be bought and applied on its own.
How to make a lace manicure?
Of course, any kind of manicure you can do in the salon, but lace manicure can easily be done with their own hands.
To do this you will need a nail polish, lace, glue for nails and a fixer.
- In advance, decide on the design of the manicure and cut out pieces of necessary shape from the lace. If you use a special manicure lace, it is already covered with a protective layer, which prevents penetration of moisture and protects from other external influences. Such a lace is rather small. When using conventional lace, you need to pay attention to the size of the pattern, since it must be shallow, otherwise the manicure will not have a beautiful appearance. In addition, due to the lack of additional protective coating, this manicure is less resistant.
- Apply a layer of varnish on the nails and let it dry. Gently apply a thin layer of adhesive and lay on top of the lace.
- Allow the glue to dry. To accelerate the process, you can use a special spray to quickly dry the glue.
- Take the nail scissors and cut the protruding lace along the edge of the nail.
- The manicure is ready. It remains only to cover the nail fixing compound. It is not recommended to cover the lace with a transparent varnish, as the manicure can lose its appearance. If desired, you can do without a fixer, but in this case, the manicure will not last long.
It is worth noting that the manicure with lace is often applied to the advanced nails , as it is difficult to make on short nails, and it does not always look as required.

To get a neat graceful figure, it is advisable to find a suitable scheme in advance and try to apply the pattern gradually, row by row, like knitting. When the varnish dries, apply a fixer. Everything, manicure is ready.
