Cool Nail Trends

 “Cool nail trends you can DIY at home”

Nail trends come and go like any other fashion item, and it can be difficult to walk to the salon just to keep up with the latest trends. But the good thing is that you can avoid that hassle and save money by creating the latest nail trends at home. From neutrals to neon lights, these are all ways you can play with your nails this summer and for all summer to come!

 

Pleasant and neutral:

In other words: this is how you look stylish, elegant, and sporty, a trend that is simple, timeless, and easy to implement. Keep your nails a comfortable length but not too long to maintain elegance and class. Be sure to use a nail file to file each nail in a flattering way; A great tip for finding a flattering shape is to follow the shape of the cuticle. Paint your nails with a neutral nail polish of your choice and finish them with a clear topcoat so that the finish is last visible.

 

Choose buttery shades of beige, gray, white, and pale pink to make a neutral statement. The most important thing to keep in mind when wearing a neutral nail color is to keep the colors fresh and clean; it means there are no chips or scratches

Create caviar manicure:

 

Beautify neutral nails with a caviar manicure. Caviar nails are perfect for a girl's night out, special occasions, or just because you feel fabulous. Caviar manicures do not need to be done in neutral colors; Any color will do as long as you use clear pearls. To create the sophisticated manicure trend with caviar at home, you will need:

 

# Basecoat

# Opaque or matt nail polish

# Clear microbeads (can be found in hardware stores)

# Top layer

# A tray or sheet of paper

Use our guide to keeping your nails healthy to prepare them perfectly before you start your caviar manicure - or any other manicure!

 

The first step is to apply the base coat to clean nails and let it dry. Then apply a coat of matte nail polish and let it dry.

The second step is to apply another coat of nail polish to one hand and wait for the polish to be tacky (around 10-15 seconds). Hold your hand with half-dry fingernails on the tray, bowl or piece of paper and pour the clear microbeads on your nails, making sure that each nail is completely covered with the beads.

Once they are coated in "caviar", use your fingers to gently press the beads to make sure they stay in place.

Repeat with your other hand, placing the beads that drip on your tray back into their container until you can use them again. This manicure will last up to 4 days before the pearls come out of the nail bed.

Money-saving nail stickers:

 

Getting straight, sharp lines on your nails can be very inconvenient if you don't use the right tools to do the job. So here is the solution for those wondering how to get the perfect striped manicure from home or who want to create cute geometric shapes on their nails without buying or paying for expensive designs. As you read the following list of tools, keep in mind that tape is not just for hanging posters on the wall:

 

scissors

tape

Nail polish

A great reason to hide masking tape with your nail polish is to be able to create pretty triangles, zigzags, and stripes on your nails without all of the trembling hands and messy lines.

 

Spread an inch of masking tape and paint it with your nail polish. Take a shower, comb your hair, put on makeup, or eat a sandwich - just let the polish dry before you take the next step!

 

Paint your nails a different color than the one you painted with the tape, then cut them into shapes or strips. Then create personal and unique designs with your homemade nail stickers by applying the sticky side down. Apply a top coat to complete the look and make the manicure last!

 

Nail manicure with splashes of color

 

Splatters of color nails are a summer trend and it's a great look to wear on the beach, pool, pond, or while walking around the mall. It's really simple and can be done with any available color palette provided they all complement each other. If you want colorful nails that will instantly add style to you, here are what you need:

 

White nail polish

3 matching nail polishes (petrol and coral make a pair!)

3 toothpicks

Tray, bowl, or sheet of paper

1. File your nails and clean your cuticles before painting your nails white. Using a good quality white nail polish is crucial as many white polishes don't dry well and require a few coats. Make sure the white nail polish is dry before proceeding.

 

2. Choose the first color, open the bottle and use the brush to apply the color to a tray, paper or bowl. Use your toothpick to pick up some paint, then place the colored tip of the toothpick on the top corner of your nail and drag the paint to the opposite bottom corner of your nail. You will likely run out of paint before you get to the other corner, which is fine.

 

3. Apply as much color as you want to each nail and let it dry before using your second color. Repeat the same process, simply using a clean toothpick to apply the new paint. Let the polish dry before doing the same with your final nail color. Once your nails are dry, apply a top coat to make sure your style holds up.

 

The spotted gradient:

This DIY manicure has popped up all over the place! This is another great manicure to wear on the beach, by the pool, at parties, or on day trips to the mall, and it only lasts a small part of the day.

 

Faded and washed-out styles can be found everywhere from hair to clothing. So why not dye your nails too? Here are all the ingredients of this manicure:

 

3-4 nail colors from the same color family (example: dark blue, light blue, light blue/white)

Top layer

Triangular makeup sponge

Cup of water

brush

Remove email

piece of paper

It may take a few times to get a grip on this technique, but honestly, it's that simple! Instead of just using nail polish to paint your nails, you're going to be coloring them.

 

1. The first step is to remove the caps from the 3 nail polishes.

 

2. Dip the triangular make-up sponge into the water for a few seconds and wring out the water so that it is only damp. A damp sponge prevents the polish from being too absorbed into the sponge.

 

3. Now that your sponge is wet, you need to move a little quicker to prevent the nail polish from drying on the sponge. Start with the darkest color and draw a line on your sponge near the edge; Passing the line twice is enough for the paint to transfer to the nail.

 

4. The next step is to paint another line with the second shade and continue with the lighter shade.

 

5. You can now apply the sponge to the nail. It sounds intimidating to rub yourself with paint, but don't be scared! Don't worry about messing up the tech as rubbing the sponge will mix the colors and give you a weathered look. If you're still not sure, you can rub the sponge on a piece of paper before trying it on your nails. Line the sponge dip upward with your fingertip or fingernail. Once the sponge is in place, press the sponge against the nail, then apply it to the same spot from top to bottom several times.

 

You should be able to get 2 nails done before you need to reapply the colors on your sponge as long as it is moving fast. The whole process can be complicated, so you'll need the brush and nail polish remover. Before applying a top coat to your nails, clean the dirt around your nails and cuticles with the brush. Get this manicure in any color you want and mix the colors when you are feeling confident.
