Cosmetologist and make-up artist Alexandra Kropotova tells what a hot manicure is and what fashionable ideas of designers you can try to repeat yourself.
The most important thing in the beauty of hands is well-groomed skin. A couple of times a month it doesn’t hurt to do a hot manicure. The procedure is as follows: hands should be immersed in a hot bath with healthy oils for 10-15 minutes. After that, immediately massage your hands. The skin will become smooth and soft. After applying the nail polish, do not forget to moisturize the cuticles with special oil. And then choose any of the current design options to your taste and experiment.
Dashes, lines, dotted lines are the simplest and at the same time interesting design elements that anyone can draw. It doesn’t matter where you place these geometric creations – center, side, top, bottom. The main thing is that the lines should be thin, made on a solid background.
The effect of a matte finish turns the manicure into a real painting, like a watercolor. Even on a matte base, design elements made with transparent glossy varnish look good – for example, painted stars, hearts.
This summer we will shine to the tips of our nails. To add chic, use polishes with large or small sequins, rhinestones. The basis is a metallic manicure, the main effect is a dazzling shine of gold and silver. Such a “precious” design looks good on tanned skin and is just made for parties.
