French on the nails. Photo 2020, new items: white gel polish with a pattern, beautiful ombre, gradient, shellac geometry

The elegant framing of the nail emphasizes the grace of the hand, gives a clear completeness to the design. French on the nails refers precisely to these types. The variety of photos of new products in 2020, drawings and forms based on a jacket, including white, allows you to use this manicure technique, both in everyday life and in the case of preparation for festive events.

Color combinations

White with black... This color combination looks very stylish.

There are many types of such nail art:

• Chess board;
• black tip with white peas, or vice versa;
• piano keys;
• flowers;
• abstract drawings;
• the use of stones, lace, etc.

Alternatively, in a white and black jacket, the base for the nail is white varnish, and the tip of the nail is covered with black varnish. Such a manicure looks peculiar and is a bold, unusual solution.

Here is an example of step by step creationI design using a combination of monochrome colors in French manicure:

1. The entire area of ​​the nail plate is covered with a transparent creamy pink varnish. They are waiting for it to dry.
2. The tip of the plate is highlighted in white. Wait for it to dry.
3. With the help of a brush, leave 2 drops of dark varnish on the smile, connect the drops to each other, giving them a heart shape. Repeat this pattern along the entire white edge.
4. Highlight the border of the jacket with a silvery liner.
5. At the base of the nail, a strip of colorless varnish is drawn and 3 rhinestones are glued in a line: in the center, larger rhinestones are placed.
6. A protective layer is applied.

White with red... This combination looks solemn, elegant even if the design option is simple - the usual smile line of one of the red shades on a white background, and vice versa. The combination of white and red in the New Year's manicure looks colorful in nail art. With the right choice of a red shade, this jacket goes well with any clothing.

Too much white on nails that are elongated in width will visually make them shorter and widen.

The predominance of shades of red, on the contrary, will help divert attention from the errors and shortcomings of manicure.

One of the new products in 2020, judging by the photo, was a white jacket on nails in pastel colors. The main idea of ​​light nail art is naturalness. Pastel colors are soft, gentle, calm. They look great on short and long nails. A French manicure made using white and pastel colors will help a woman out in a business setting when a bright, catchy manicure is inappropriate.

Back

Reverse jacket - when the entire nail is covered with one color, and the hole is made out in a different shade.

Detailed instructions on how to perform such a jacket yourself:

1. For hands, you should make a hot bath, then you need to remove the cuticles, shape the nails.
2. Then they distribute the base under the varnish, let it dry.
3. A special stencil or french stickers are attached to the nails. They should be glued so that there is a crescent-shaped distance between the edge of the nail plate and the sticker.
4. The nail is covered with the selected shade of varnish. They are waiting for complete drying.
5. Then peel off the sticker and carefully paint over the remaining unpainted part of the nail in a different color. Allow to dry.
6. Fix the result with a colorless varnish.

When creating a reverse jacket, you can choose different designs. For example, to highlight the hole not with a crescent, but in the form of a triangle, you can draw several crescents on the surface - at the bottom of the nail and in the middle of the nail plate.

The reverse jacket visually makes the nails shorter, so it is better to do it on long nails. Pearlescent and matt varnishes are not recommended.

Lunar

Lunar French is a design in which white varnish is applied at the base of the nail. The moon jacket visually lengthens the nail plate, makes the fingers thinner, so a woman's hand looks sleeker.

Application principles:

1. For coating, two varnishes of different colors are used - white and any other.
2. White is taken as the basis of the manicure, and the hole of the nail plate is highlighted with a contrasting shade, or vice versa, the nail is covered with a bright contrasting base, and the hole is made white.
3. To highlight the borders of the holes, a thin brush or stencil for French manicure is used.

One of the options for the moon jacket is a technique called "negative space". The design principle is to apply colored varnish to the nail only on a part of the nail. The other part remains in a natural color, covered with a colorless varnish.

Side

The novelties of the French jacket in 2020 include a lateral French manicure, the photos of which show that it is not necessary to use only white on the nails.

The essence of this type of manicure is to apply stripes on the sides of the nail plate or draw a smile on the side of the nail. You can use duct tape to create even stripes.

For example, you can make such a design - paint your nails with scarlet varnish, and then draw even stripes on the sides.

For short nails

Manicure on short nails looks natural, practical and comfortable. French on short nails looks advantageous, because gives nails a noble look, visually lengthens.

In a jacket on short nails, the smile line is especially important. It should be no wider than 3 mm, otherwise such a jacket will look ridiculous (too wide a line will visually shorten a short nail).

It can be diversified with images similar to patterns on a dress. If the dress is without patterns and embroidery, then you can make an abstract one.

Fashion drawings

Making a jacket on the nails (photo 2020 new items), a white background is combined with a wide variety of patterns. An important rule is the harmony of the chosen pattern with the basis of French manicure. Simple patterns can be applied to each nail. Large, complex designs should only be drawn on the middle or ring fingers.

1. Stripes. Suitable for business style. You can make clear lines (straight or curved) against a pastel background.
2. Points. French with dots looks interesting, they can be made black, multi-colored, white or metallic. The dots are applied with a dots or a regular toothpick. White or black specks are suitable for a bright base.
3. Framework. The nails are framed with dark frames. You can make a frame not on all nails, but on one or two.
4. French with a pattern in a marine theme - a great option for summer design. You can draw a starfish, steering wheel, anchors, gulls, or anything else associated with the sea.
5. For a jacket with a winter design white monograms, images of snowflakes, a snowman, etc. will do.
6. Autumn French may differ in patterns of leaves, raindrops, etc. This design uses bronze and copper colors.
7. Spring jacket. Images in the style of blossoming flower buds are suitable.

With rhinestones decor

For a design with rhinestones, it is necessary that the nails are slightly longer than usual, otherwise this option will look defiant.

Methods for fixing rhinestones:

1. Easy method. Rhinestones will last no more than 2 days. The finished design is passed on top with a colorless transparent varnish and rhinestones are immediately applied. For fixing, cover with varnish again.
2. Rhinestones are attached to nail glue. Take quite a bit of glue. Until the glue dries, it is necessary to fix the rhinestones with tweezers to prevent slipping. The disadvantage of this method is that it takes a long time.
3. A reliable method is with gel polish. First, a layer of gel polish is applied, and then rhinestones are applied on top. Allow to dry (use a UV lamp). Apply another even layer of gel polish to the area around the rhinestones.

A French with rhinestones removes the need to use bright accessories that make the perception of the image heavier. Massive rings and bracelets will be superfluous.

Fan french

Fan-french - decorating the tip of the nail with a variety of design elements. It is done with paints or acrylics. Various materials are used for the design: dried flowers, foil, feathers, mica, etc. The difference from the French classic manicure is the color scheme.

Note! In this type of jacket, only the grown edge of the nail should be decorated, its main part is not decorated.

With gold and silver

Silver and gold can be realized on the nail in the form of foil, hologram, sand, slides. To get a French manicure with silver sand, you need to perform a regular jacket, make a layer of transparent varnish and put a small amount of silver on the desired part of the nail. Further, the excess sand is blown away, and the nail is covered with a layer of colorless varnish on top.

French with gold looks richer. But it's important not to overdo it - too much gold glitter looks vulgar. Favorable color combination - black and gold.

Technique for applying a black and gold jacket:

1. The nails are processed. Cover each nail with an even layer of black varnish.
2. Wait until the varnish becomes dense. Stickers for a jacket.
3. Apply golden varnish to the edge of the plate.

Monochromatic

French on nails (photo 2020 new items) white solid color can also be. If the jacket is monochromatic, then different textures are used in the design: matte and glossy.

Examples of a combination of textures:

1. Glossy base + matte edge.
2. Sparkling tip + matte base.
3. Velvet base + pearlescent tip.

Millennium

French millennium - closer to the edge, the nail is laid out with sparkles, micro-dust, shiny varnishes. In this case, the nail plate should be of a natural shade.

Sequins (the more, the better) and micro-dust should be dense so that the edge of the nail does not shine through them. A transparent, colorless varnish is used for fixing.

Twist

French twist - the tips of the nail are covered with several lines of different colors. The stripes can be positioned in any direction: diagonally, vertically, horizontally.

There are no restrictions on the colors of the free edge of the nail, but the rest of the nail plate should be in a natural shade.

Steel

Methods for creating a steel jacket:

1. The edge is coated with a metallic varnish (in 2 layers). After drying, it is necessary to cover it with a colorless varnish (to fix the staining).
2. A thermal film is used, through which a perfectly even smooth surface is created. Templates of the desired shape are cut out of the (thermal) film, which are kept in the lamp for no more than 5 minutes before use. Then gently apply them to the edge of the nail, slightly pressing, count down for a few seconds. Remove excess with forceps, file or remove with a blade. After that, using a paper napkin, align the film on the tip of the nail.

Lace

A lace jacket can be done in different ways: by gluing a lace fabric; apply art painting, stickers (special). The lace is combined with a background of different colors.

When performing a lace jacket on all nails, a smile can be made in the form of a lace ribbon running along the edge of the nail. This smile can be wide - up to a third of the nail. Lace can also be applied to the center or base of the nail.

Geometric

The geometric version implies the application of a geometric plot to the jacket. There are many options for such a pattern: contrasting lines on a one-color varnish; dividing the plate into asymmetric sectors or into equal ones; different trajectories of lines - along, across, diagonally, etc.

One of the ways to create a geometric nail design is to apply figures in the form of rhombuses, squares, triangles, etc., cut from paper tape to nails.

With this tape, the space of the edge of the nail is sealed, on which the selected color will not be applied, and varnish is applied to the remaining space. Classic French manicure has not gone out of fashion for a long time. Confirmation of this is the variety of photos of new French products in 2020, where white prevails on the nails.
