Ombre Nail Design for Short Nails

For girls with a natural form of the nail plate, it is best to give preference to the gentle pastel colors of the varnish. Such shades will make the sharp contours smoother, and the created manicure will look as natural as possible. Especially such a solution will appeal to all lovers of restrained design.

Ombre on short nails is usually performed vertically. This direction allows you to visually stretch too short the shape of the plate, thereby lengthening the fingers.

 

A horizontal transition from one shade to another is also allowed. In this case, the masters recommend combining the contrasting colors of light and dark coatings. At the same time, it is worth abandoning the use of a plentiful amount of decorative elements, such as rhinestones, print or sparkles, preferring minimalism.

Using rubbing

This ombre technique is performed by rubbing colored pigment. Particularly popular were delicate powdery coatings. Today, more and more fashionistas opt for an interesting combination of pink tones with a pearl rub. Created design looks incredibly feminine and sophisticated.

 

Also in demand is a fashionable ombre with mirrored rubbing. The smooth transition from a mirror to a matte finish looks good. A unique effect is created due to the large number of microparticles located in the powdery powder. Thanks to them, the finished coating changes color depending on the viewing angle.

Gradient manicure with rhinestones

Iridescent crystals perfectly complement your manicure.

If earlier sparkling decor was appropriate only in the evening look, today such a design is very often used even in a day bow.

 

It is only important to observe moderation, and not to overload the design with too many bright rhinestones.

 

A popular design in the style of Feng Shui is still in trend, when using a decorative ornament they single out, most often the ring finger. Floral arrangements made by crystals of various sizes and shades look elegant. Also, more and more often, customers are asked to decorate with rhinestones a hole in the nail plates. In the photo you can see the most popular options for decorating with crystals this season.

Glitter Pattern

An unusual print or ornament can make unique even the most banal and boring nail design. It’s enough to show a little imagination so that the finished manicure will sparkle with completely new colors.

• In past seasons, floral ornaments, animal images, and cartoon characters were especially popular.
• Today, animal prints such as leopard or tiger patterns are preferred. Such a “wild” design is in great demand among lovers of extravagant images.
• Another new 2018 - nail design gradient with the addition of sparkles. This solution, combined with the ombre effect, looks really stylish. Masters use glitters of various shades in their works, creating with their help very beautiful natural color transitions.

With the addition of a french

In this version, the light end of the nail plate very smoothly changes to a different shade.

How to make an ombre manicure

Before you start creating your unique design, you should prepare all the necessary tools in advance.

 

You will need:

• a set of varnishes of different colors, as well as white gel and top coat;
  special sponge or a small piece of an ordinary sponge;
• foil;
• nail polish remover;
• cotton swabs.

 

Next, we proceed to create the ombre design:

1. At the initial stage, a transparent coating is applied, and then wait until the applied composition is completely dry.
2. Then use a white background coating, which is applied in several layers. Instead of white varnish, you can use a beige skin tone. Try to apply the product as carefully as possible to prevent any stains outside the loop.
3. As soon as the background coating dries, proceed to the main, most interesting part of the implementation. We apply several strips of different colors on the foil using varnish, after which we apply a sponge slightly moistened in water to our palette. We process the nail plate with a colored sponge, applying the gradient pointwise on the entire surface of the nail.Note: so that during processing the varnish does not go beyond the borders, pre-glue the cuticle with ordinary adhesive tape.
4. To prevent the formation of irregularities, immediately after treatment with a sponge, cover the finished gradient with a transparent varnish.
5. At the final stage, you only need to carefully remove the tape and wipe off the excess varnish.

 

A manicure with a color transition will be the best solution if you want to bring some changes to your familiar look. And most importantly, do not be afraid to experiment and find new unusual ways to design nails.
