In the winter season, the various knit manicure options are especially relevant, it looks very impressive, voluminous and attracts attention. And to make it is not difficult even for a beginner, even though a manicure in the style of a sweater looks very complicated, but this is only at first glance. We have prepared a step by step instructions for a knitted manicure.
- Prepare nails: give them shapes, remove cuticles, treat with a dehydrator and apply a base (it should be baked in a lamp).
- Apply a gel-varnish of milky colour, sealing the ends of nails and drying in a lamp.
- Take a white thick gel paste and a thin brush and draw thin, uneven strips, about 6 pieces. Next, strip the strips diagonally, as if cutting them. Each subsequent strip is shaded by a mirror direction (fir tree). Before drying, sprinkle the nail with acrylic powder and send in a UV lamp.
- On the adjacent nail, we will draw a rope. To do this, take a white gel paste and a thin brush and apply a “markup”: three dotted stripes and connect them diagonally. The result is a knit sweater-like pattern. Make the lines a little “hairy”, hatching them diagonally, as on the previous nail. The inner part is left glossy. Before drying, also sprinkle with acrylic powder and send the nail to the lamp.
- You can optionally add a little colour or glitter to make the design brighter.
