How to make a beautiful manicure at home. Video, step by step photo MK
Beautiful, well-groomed hands- pride for any woman. A quality manicure is also a talent. But in the modern world, you can find a lot of tools to turn the manicure process from normal procedure nail care art.
Each of us gathered here is already an artist, the proof of this is the masterpieces performed on our nails every week.
Someone uses ordinary varnishes, and I will tell you about gel polishes which I use.
My acquaintance with this type of manicure took place not so long ago, in March of this year, when, after another painstaking work on my nails throughout the evening, the next day I found a chip, apparently my nail plate is too oily and the varnish does not last long, alas, even with tops.
The decision matured itself, and through trial and error, through negotiations with a friend with a similar problem, after reading a bunch of information on the Internet, it was decided to buy a lamp and do the manicure myself.
Lamps are LED, UV and combined.
IN LED lamps LEDs. Such a lamp is economical, it has a long service life, about 5 years, the LEDs in it cannot be replaced, but the varnish crystallizes faster in such a lamp. It usually costs more.
UV lamps they really consist of lamps, the varnish dries longer in them, but they crystallize all types of varnishes, including professional extension gel. Lamps must be replaced.
I have both types of lamps.
I started my acquaintance with the LED lamp, but now I have such a red-haired beauty.
She has a timer for 2 minutes, this is the time needed to fix the varnish in one session. There is also an endless mode for as long as you need.
It is easy to use, the whole hand fits there, the lamps are arranged in an arc, which allows you to crystallize the nail polish from all sides.
With the lamps sorted out a bit.
Let's move on to the next details. For better adhesion to the surface of the nail and to preserve the beauty of the manicure for a long time, it is necessary to use special liquids.
1. BOND. In other words, this is a primer, that is, it dries the nail, it is an absolutely hypoallergenic protective barrier for the nail.
2. PRIMER. It creates the strongest adhesion to gel polish.
3. Liquid for removal of a sticky layer. Such liquids are good because, in addition to removing the sticky layer from the surface of the varnish, they also act as a good antiseptic, in addition, ordinary varnish can be easily removed with this liquid. It is important that such a liquid does not contain ACETONE.
With liquids, perhaps, too.
Who is reading this for the first time don't be scared I also used to think it was difficult. But you can greatly facilitate the process by buying only a base, top and varnish without a sticky layer, however, we need beautiful nails for a long time, and it is desirable to protect the nail plate at the same time, so I will tell you how to do a manicure, following the difficult path, which means everything else will then seem easy.
Well, shall we begin?
Sit down more comfortably.
Having done classical procedures before applying nail polish, we prepared our canvas for the creative process.
It should be noted that special attention should be paid to cuticle, it must be removed and the nails filed.
Before applying gel polish on nails, it is better to abandon various manicure procedures, such as masks, creams and baths at least a few hours before.
There is such special remedy- nail file-bar, otherwise - buff- we will polish the nails a little with them so that the surface of the nail is rough, this can be seen in the photo.
Buff comes with different abrasiveness, in addition to polishing, they can polish nails to a shine.
So, then we apply on the nails BOND, we remove dust particles from the surface of the nail.
It dries quickly and without a lamp.
Then we apply PRIMER. It also dries quickly, improves the adhesion of the varnish to the surface. nail plate and it does not need to be dried in a lamp.
Now we apply base. We cover the entire surface of the nail with it, paying special attention to the edges of the nail. The layer should not be thick.
Excess varnish in the area of the periungual roller must be removed with a special pencil.
It is better not to use liquid, as the varnish may float. Just lightly wipe the area around the nail that was in the varnish with a dry pencil.
There are special liquids that can cover the periungual space, then such a liquid is removed from the nail like a film along with all the dirt, you can not be afraid to get dirty.
Now put your hand in the lamp for 2 minutes (UV) or 30 seconds (LED).
It must be remembered that the varnish does not dry there, but only crystallizes and it is not necessary to touch the nail after the lamp.
The next layer will be the base color varnish. How it will be depends on you, the main thing is to see the final picture of the manicure that you want to get.
Lots of options.
This is my nail polish set.
They are all the same at first glance, but in fact they are just one brands – TNL, and each individual color has its own number on the bottle cap.
Colors can be easily combined with each other, making a gradient manicure, which I just decided to do today, or adding zest to the manicure in the form of using sliders, rhinestones or special manicure ribbons.
Among their humble collections of thermal films and sliders(among which there is the familiar Black Panther), I prefer the latter, I like them for their nail coating, variety of pictures and their realism, as well as ease of use, I think.
I never use stickers. On shellac, they create a certain bulge; if such a sticker is not fixed enough with a top, it will begin to bristle, which will ruin the manicure.
Ribbons can be used for multi-colored manicure as a delimiter of one color from another. Rhinestones- This is for the evening, for dessert, so to speak.
You can draw on your nails yourself, they will serve as assistants in this dots- sticks with dotted iron tips, easily grab the polish and draw on the nail.
So today I want to do more strict manicure changing from light to dark.
As basics I will take a milky shade, light beige, ivory - as you like.
We apply it on the nails with a very thin layer, just a thin one, the possibility of chipping depends on this, this also happens with gel polishes.
Put your hand in the lamp for 2 minutes.
And now start with the gradient. I have a special stamp with a sponge on the end, and I will use it.
On the surface, any, I have a plastic cover, you need to drop the varnish, to which the transition will be made and dip the stamp into it.
Instead of a stamp, you can use a sponge or a regular dishwashing sponge.
It's okay if, with such actions, we stain the periungual roller, the gel polish is easily removed from the nail until it hardens in the lamp.
Having cleaned the remains of varnish on the fingers, you can immerse your hand in the lamp.
Depending on the saturation of the color transition on the nail, you can repeat this procedure several times.
When the picture on the nails satisfies you, fix the gel polish with a top.
Carefully paint over the entire nail plate, paying special attention to the edge of the nail, seal it.
Again put your hand in the lamp for 2 minutes, then for another 2 minutes to fully consolidate.
And now - final touch. We take a lint-free cloth or cotton pad (flat, without extra lint, Bell has good hard drives in this regard), soak it in liquid for removing the sticky layer and carefully rub the nails.
After that, we will give our nails a little nourishment with DNC wax You can also use wheat germ oil.
And voila beautiful manicure ready, and how shiny it is!
All you have to do is enjoy a permanent manicure, and when it comes time to take it off, you will be ready for it, because in the second part I want to tell you about removing gel polish from nails.
We need the liquid itself, foil, a napkin and clips.
As a napkin, I use baby diapers, I cut them, they are well saturated and the liquid does not flow out of the napkin, this is convenient, since it has an oilcloth base.
You can use any foil, even for cooking chicken in the oven.
Clips are optional. They are designed to better hold the liquid wipe to the nail, but if you wrap your nail well, you may not need clips.
So, everything is simple. Wet the napkin in the liquid, put it on the nail, cover it with foil (shiny side inward), twist it and press it with a clip.
Walking like a beautiful dinosaur during 10 minutes, filming.
The varnish leaves quickly if everything is done correctly and a good liquid is selected.
Residues of nail polish can be removed with a wooden stick or such a device, rub off the excess.
Then, to saturate the nails with useful minerals and oils, you can make a bath with salt from DNC, which I wrote about here -
That's all! Your nails are ready for beauty again!
All beautiful manicures!
Well, a few of my manicures with gel polish ...
I'm not a magician, I'm just learning)))
When Coco Chanel designed her famous Chanel 2.55 handbag in 1955, neither she nor anyone else could have imagined that this cute accessory would become iconic. Years have passed, and the handbag is still famous. Of course, she has undergone a lot of transformations, but her style has remained unchanged. Stitches, a metal chain and Chanel's signature logo are the three components of the handbag. And they will always accompany her. But what if you complement the accessory with a manicure in the same style? As easy as pie!
Quilted manicure step by step
So, to make your dream come true, you will need:
Basic clear gel polish.
Manicure tape.
Color gel polish of any shade.
Ultraviolet lamp.
Top cover.
Small rhinestones.
1. Apply a base gel coat on the treated nails and dry it in a UV lamp.
3. Shoot sticky layer(this procedure is required, since the nail tape will not adhere to the surface of the nail if it remains sticky).
4. Now you can do the stitches. We cut off a small piece of adhesive tape (about 3-4 cm) and glue it on the nail plate diagonally, stretching as much as possible. There will be three such diagonals, although more are possible.
5. The next step is sticking tape over the first three strips, but in the opposite direction. Do not touch the extra pieces of tape.
6. Apply a second layer of colored gel polish to the surface of the nail and dry it in a lamp. If necessary, you can cover the nails with a third layer.
7. After the gel polish has cured, remove the sticky layer and pull out the strips of nail tape. It comes off easily, leaving behind thin tracks.
8. To get rid of the tracks and make the nail smooth, cover it with a layer of top.
9. To enhance the effect of the stitches, glue small rhinestones to the junctions of the tracks using glue for tips. Chanel style manicure is ready.
Ideas
Quilted manicure does not have to be done on gel polish, you can limit yourself to classic varnishes. The principle of operation is approximately the same. One or two layers of colored varnish are applied to the base coat, which must be dried very well. Then strips of adhesive tape are glued in the form of stitches, and another layer of varnish is applied on top of them. After 1-2 minutes, the strips are pulled out and neat stitches remain in their place. If desired, rhinestones can be glued to the joints of the tracks.

What is a manicure? General description of the procedure
Before finding out what types of manicure and technique are, it is worth saying a few words about the general understanding of the process. involves not only applying decor and cutting the plate. Manicure is primarily skin care around the bed (cuticle). The procedure also involves healing, improving appearance marigold.
Types of manicure and technique may be different. Currently, masters and specialized salons offer to choose what is right for you. Let's try to learn everything about manicure. Types of manicure will be described below.
Hardware processing of nails and skin
Recently, this type has become very popular. In order to make such a manicure, you need to have a special device (machine). It comes with a lot of attachments. Some of them are needed for grinding the nail plate. Others are used directly on the skin.
Before work, you can not wet your hands and soften the cuticle. Immediately you need to start processing it with a machine. The machine can do all the hard work for you. It remains only to trim the nail and, if necessary, cover it with varnish.
Spa manicure and its types
Several categories can be included here. Spa manicure has two subspecies of nail treatment: cold and hot way. In addition, there are Japanese and Brazilian equipment. Paraffin therapy (manicure) is also gaining popularity.
- Manicure techniques (hot and cold types of spa) involve exposure of the hands to special therapeutic solutions. Most often, salt, herbs, various oils are used for their preparation. All these substances heal the nail bed and add shine to the plate. After such processing, the handles look well-groomed and beautiful.
- Paraffin therapy is another popular way of treating hands and nails these days. During the procedure, oil or cream is applied to the skin, after which the brushes are immersed in hot paraffin. The temperature of the composition can reach 50-60 degrees. Next, the hands are removed, and the product seals the skin. It is this manipulation that allows the most effective effect of the cream or oils on the skin of the hands and nails.
- Japanese manicure. The processing technique in this case will be as follows. The skin is processed in special baths, for which only natural ingredients are used. Moreover, all the tools that the master uses are also of natural origin. After such treatment, the nails become stronger and shiny.
- The Brazilian type of processing involves the use of individual sets for each visitor. So, in the salon you will be provided with gloves, a few sticks and some other accessories. All of them will be disposed of immediately upon completion of work.
European type of processing (manicure)
Manicure techniques (the types described above) can be combined in this variant. involves the use of special gels, solutions and pencils that soften the cuticle and allow it to be easily removed. First, the master uses such solutions, after which he removes excess skin. In this case, piercing or cutting objects are never used. After careful processing of the roller, the nail is filed and polished. Then you can use oils, creams or medicinal formulations for the plate.
Classic manicure
The classic manicure technique involves the use of files, scissors, cuticle nippers and many other items. It should be noted that this method of processing is the most dangerous. That is why all items and tools must be sterilized after each client. Consider a master class on the implementation of this manicure.
The first stage: softening of the skin and cuticles
To influence the nails and fingers, the master most often uses an ordinary soap solution. You can add salt, herbs or oils if you like. Dip your fingers in the prepared heated composition for about 15-20 minutes. The drier your skin, the longer the exposure time should be.
After the specified range, you need to wet the skin of the hands with a soft cloth, leaving moisture on the area of the nail zone.
Second step: trimming the cuticle
After thorough softening, excess skin from the periungual roller is removed easily and without much effort. Push back with a stick the part that has grown onto the plate. After that, use scissors or sharp tweezers to remove the excess cuticle.
Be sure to pay attention to the resulting burrs. They need to be carefully cut off without damaging the deeper layers of the skin.
Third stage: nail treatment
When the skin of each finger is processed, you need to cut the length of the plate. This should be done with sharp scissors or tongs. After that, carefully file the edge of the nail and give it the desired shape. Remember that sawing is best done from the edges to the middle. In this case, the plate will not exfoliate and crumble.
Fourth step: application of design or emollient composition
When the nail is shaped, you need to apply the final design to it. It can be varnish, stickers or any other decoration. If you want to leave the plate clean, then you can use wax or aromatic oils that are rubbed into the bed and soften the cuticle. After such a manicure, the hands look natural and beautiful.
Summing up and a small conclusion
So, now you know the main types of manicure and technique. Previously, only the classical method was used. In the modern world, there are more and more opportunities to bring pens and nails into proper shape. Choose the technique you like the most and use it consistently.
Remember that when applying nail extensions, it is worth doing a manicure about one or two weeks before the next correction. Otherwise, your cuticles may become thinner, and cracks and abrasions will begin to appear on it.
It is also not worth building up nails after paraffin therapy. In this case, the plate is impregnated with oils and nourishing creams and also saturated with moisture. After such treatment, the gel or acrylic may simply not lie on the nail.
The classic look of a manicure should not be done on dry skin. Before such processing, it is necessary to moisten the cuticle and soften the roller. Otherwise, injury will be inevitable.
Take care of the health and beauty of your nails. Do manicure regularly and always be beautiful!
