Ladies, listen up! Shellac nails are the “white moonlight” of the nail art world.
What's up with that? The bling bling of shell nails posted by ins bloggers all the time looks like a treasure under the sea, but in fact, it's the magic of shellac nail art! As an experienced nail artist for 6 years, I'm going to reveal to you how to play with shellac nail art. (You savor it, you savor it: traffic doesn't lie, but it will say the opposite)
The first party: know do material is the king first!
Shellac manicure is the most important to choose the right base! It is recommended to use a semi-transparent nude powder base, remember to thinly coated with three layers of first enough to moist. The key is coming - pearl powder to choose 0.03mm particles of that kind of hidden polarized light first to the soul. I have seen too many beautiful women greedy for flat buy large particles of powder, get to the surface of the nail rough over sandpaper (this whole thing).
Second Party: Gradient Daze yyds
Try playing “organized chaos is the essence of the matrix” with a fan pen! Thick shellac on the tip of the nail, sweep white through the base of the nail bed, and transition in between with uv glue. Remember to turn the brush quickly and accurately, if you hesitate, you will lose. The best thing is to apply the Magic Mirror Powder on top of each other, under the light, there will be a kind of “broken moonlight spilling down the pearl shells” effect.
Third party: three-dimensional texture to be born
Remember to spray gelatin to set the shape of the sculpture! It is recommended that when you carve the sea wave pattern, you should be “three parts force and seven parts skill”, too hard will flatten the texture. I've seen some customers DIY, carved to shell pattern like earthworms arching soil (their pain point, we need to think about the pain point). In fact, you can try the embossing plate, easy to get museum-level relief.
Party 4: Colorblocking Philosophies to Hold
Shellac nails go perfectly with mint green! If you want to play a big game - the edge of the nail depicted 0.5mm gold edge, the center point cobalt blue diamonds. Reminder: Glitter transition should be “sparse but not leaky”, too intensive will turn into a hardware store style. The recent hit mermaid girl color is actually very easy to overturn, it is recommended to thinly apply two layers of shellac and then stacked chameleon powder.
The Fifth Party: Everyday Mindfulness
Remember “less is more” for your commuter style shell nails! Recommended French + mother of pearl shell patches, nail bed root left 1mm breathing edge. Dating care machine must be the whole gradient shell pattern + laser stickers, candlelight will be refracted rainbow halo (believe me, straight men will see the pupil of the earthquake).
Hardcore TIPS:
Removing shellac nails is not a good idea! I have seen some customers use toothpick to pry, the result is that the nails are layered like lasagna (this is the whole thing). It is recommended to soak a beech wood stick in nail polish remover and wait for the gel to turn white before pushing. You know, shellac manicure is like love, the more violent the more hurt.
A final word of truth:
The worst thing about shellac nail art is that the base coat is not thick enough! I've tried some customers who were greedy to apply it directly, but the result was that it could be used as a bottle opener within 7 days. It is recommended to use construction adhesive first, remember - nail art is an art, not a FMCG product! (Before I leave for work, I'll tell you again: Pearls don't lie, but they'll cheat you out of your wallet!)
