• During operation, it should move at an angle of 90 degrees to the plane of the drawing.

This article is dedicated to beginners.

To create a pattern on the nail, a beginner can easily use such improvised means as sewing needle, brush, toothpick or, for example, tape. Beginners should also try their hand at working with acrylic paint and brushes.

The most the easy way creating an unsurpassed manicure are patterns created using the most ordinary nail polish. In order to create such a manicure, you will need several varnishes (the more varnishes are used, the more interesting and unique it will turn out). finished work) and a regular needle. Special attention When choosing the color of varnish, you need to pay attention to the fact that effective combinations should be created in contrasting shades; if this is not possible, then simply different colors will suit the wave. If you do not pay attention to this issue, then the created pattern on the nails will merge and will not produce the desired effect.

1. First you need to cover the entire surface of the nail plate with colorless varnish. This simple procedure will help protect your nails from all kinds of damage when working with a sewing needle.
2. After the clear varnish has completely dried, you need to apply one coat of the base varnish, which will serve as a tone. If the color of the varnish you have chosen is not saturated enough, this procedure can be repeated again.
3. Depending on which design scheme you have chosen for your nails, you need to make small dots or lines without waiting for the background varnish to dry completely.
4. Using a needle you need to create the selected pattern. To do this, you need to carefully mix the varnishes with each other.

Experts recommend practicing on paper before applying. This will help rid your nails of the excessive influence of acetone on them.

Scotch tape will help us

Another simple way to achieve a chic manicure that even beginners can do is to create a nail design using ordinary tape.

There are a huge number of options for using adhesive tape in the home. Therefore, it is not at all surprising that modern girls have found a use for it in creating manicures.

Before you begin the process of creating a nail design, you need to prepare the necessary tools for this, namely: several varnishes of different colors, a fixative and, in fact, tape.

Algorithm for creating such a pattern on nails:

1. The first step when creating any manicure is to apply a base coat to the nail. This method is no exception.
2. After the base has completely dried, a stencil of the chosen shape, cut out from tape, should be glued to the nail.
3. Then you should apply the remaining polish to the nail and wait for it to dry completely.
4. At the end, all the work done must be covered with a fixative.
