Fashion trends and news
This year's absolute trend is matte finish. Similar ideas touched all types of manicure, including French. Satin top gives long nails an unusual, attractive look. And touching such a coating gives a pleasant feeling, because its texture is associated with velvet.
With a matte finish you can fix the French manicure on all fingers. It is perfectly permissible to single out only one nail for this. Increasingly, thumb is chosen for such experiments - this is another of the latest trends. A satin coating is applied to the plate, which is then reinforced with nail art elements.
The usual jacket is already fed up with the order, so they try to dilute it with outstanding solutions.
Simple geometry firmly established itself in fashion: a combination of horizontal and vertical lines of various widths, colors or textures.
For the picture, colors matching the main background are selected. It is applied with colored varnishes, matte or shiny foil, textured sand using brushes, spraying or driving paint through a stencil.
There are two ways to incorporate geometry into French manicure:
- choose a few fingers and decorate the plates with an ornament;
- instead of the traditional white line, apply a geometric pattern to the free edge of each nail.
To accomplish the latter, it is possible to choose not one, but two composing colors (mint and metallic, peach and jasper, etc.).
Drawing a smile line with an unusual color is another favorite fashion trend. Masters are increasingly choosing metallic shades for this. The line does not have to be varnished.

Combinations of matte and shiny look very unusual. In French manicure, this technique is used with great success. You can find a combination of a matte plate and a sparkling smile line.

To draw a smile line, contrasting colors are chosen for it, most often - silver or golden metallic. The edge is made out not only with varnishes, but also with foil, sand, sparkles.

Ideas of a beautiful "french" on an almond-shaped form
In the world of fashion, so many new products appear every year that it is simply impossible to ignore them. Innovations do not bypass the classics, which have to adapt to trends.
Classic
The classic jacket implies a combination of neutral shades with a white border. Such a design has its admirers, who from year to year prove that it can be modern and extraordinary. After all, white and bodily are not a constant, and any master can interpret the jacket in his own way.
The main thing is to determine the color scheme:
- for a transparent and nude base, lemon and mint shades, as well as sky-blue and silver line of a smile, are gorgeous;
- the white border is combined with various variations of blue, mint, purple, peach and pink;
- lovers of the dark gamut may like a combination of a burgundy base with a golden smile or rich red edged with glossy black.
On some fingers, you can depict the combination in the reverse order: paint four nails in red and highlight the edge black, and on the only boy cover the plate with black and seal it with a scarlet smile.
The classic combination of white and nude is easy to diversify with the following techniques:
- draw a line of a smile in the form of a curl or a geometric element;
- Perform an ombre design with a smooth transition from a solid base to a white edge;
- on almond shaped nails, the reverse jacket looks attractive, where the line of a smile, as if reflected, is repeated at the base of the nail.
The lunar jacket is especially popular. It gently and naturally looks performed by pastel colors. In the lunar manicure, the most contrasting, mainly white, highlight not only the free edge, but also the hole of the nail.
With sparkles
Sparkling design is the favorite of this season. To give the nails a shine, gel glitter varnish, glitter and metallized foil are used. All shades of gold, silver and copper are in fashion.
You can dilute your usual jacket in several ways:
- Choose foil gel polish to create a free edge. The color of the smile may contrast with the main background. Any combination is appropriate: pink with copper, flesh with silver, black with gold, etc.
- Sequins adorn even unshakable classics. In the style of chic make out a few selected fingers. Liquid metallized varnish is applied near the hole of the nail. With a dry brush, spangles are distributed throughout the plate, obtaining a beautiful transition.
- The free edge of the nail is shaded not only with varnishes, but also with strips of foil. The edge sprinkled with glitter will look luxurious, however, in order for the coating to be stable, it should be fixed with a transparent top.
- The classic French will play in a new way, if, in contrast to the white smiles, draw the holes with sparkles.
The edge of the free edge itself can take any form, for example, bend like a monogram, bifurcate or slide along the edge of the nail closer to the hole.
Using powder and rubbing
The combination of dissimilar materials has become widespread. Combining them is not easy because of the difference in consistency and the ability to cling to the base. However, such combinations give an amazing effect.
Elements of acrylic powder rise above the main surface. They have an unusual to the touch, rough texture. The material behaves capriciously and easily crumbles, so experience and dexterity will be required from the master.
- Acrylic powder can be applied to the finished jacket voluminous decorative elements, flowers or monograms, to create a likeness of winter patterns. Each finger or some of them is decorated with bright compositions.
- With decorative material, you can make a smile line, fixing the manicure with a durable top coating. It is not necessary to use white powder.
Another interesting sprinkling is rubbing. It is applied to a color base and turns it into a sparkling mirror surface.
With such an unusual coating, you can highlight the smile line, decorate a separate nail or arrange each nail plate. Mirror shades are especially popular in the cold season. In spring and summer, they adorn a manicure made for a special occasion.
With drawing
The design of the French manicure is very restrained, so the decorative elements look organically on it. The desire to add brightness should not develop into bad taste. If you want to see large flowers or heavy rhinestones on the nails, stop at the design of one or two fingers on each hand.
Small elements, such as curls or strict lines, can be applied to each nail. Strict geometry, unusual ornaments, abstraction, intersections of lines of various thicknesses and colors are in fashion.
Especially popular are coal shades. They frame the free edge of the nail, apply the image, duplicating the smile line. The chic impression is made by drawings made with black varnish on a neutral background, decorated with small colorful rhinestones.
For festive occasions, a white jacket with patterns of the same color is suitable, individual elements of which are lined with acrylic powder. With the help of sculptural material on the nails, they create not only flat drawings, but also voluminous figures, for example, large flowers.
Drawings are applied not only with a brush and varnish:
- decorative elements are laid out from colored foil;
- unusual drawings are applied using a stencil and airbrush;
- The velvet texture of a single element or the entire marigold is obtained by applying "sugar" topping - decorative colored sand.
Special stickers allow you to quickly revive the manicure. They look like small finished pictures that are glued to the base and covered with a transparent top. Among the images, floral ornaments, lace, inscriptions and abstract drawings are most in demand.
French with almond-shaped nails with a design will never lose its relevance. Due to its simplicity, it is willingly combined with newly emerging materials and techniques, due to which it manages to merge into a stream of fashionable trends.
