The French manicure, it is service jacket, looks perfectly practically on any nails. The manicurists working with various materials masterly own technology of its creation. But how to make equal service jacket in house conditions, without having the similar level of skill? Definitely, for this purpose it is necessary to try.
Instruction
1. Prepare nails for putting varnish. Remove cuticle, accurately file nails. Remember that after putting varnish all roughnesses and defects of the wrong subfile of nail will be visible. The shape of nails has to be ideally equal. Degrease nail plate by means of liquid for removal of varnish or carefully wipe it with dry cotton pad.
2. To make equal service jacket on natural nails from the first - without experience and skill - you, for certain, will not be able if only have not got used to draw in detail usual art brush fine details of pictures. Therefore stock up with patience. Except varnishes and manicure tools, prepare the proofreader of manicure and liquid for varnish removal.
3. The outer edge of nail is often called "smile". It is possible to draw such smile in several ways. Designate by white gel pen the line which will serve as border for putting white varnish. If there is opportunity, use special professional brush for putting varnish (thin or with slanted corner). If there is no such opportunity, draw corner of usual brush from bottle. Smoothly draw line along the planned contour from one edge of nail to another. Paint over the area of outer edge which has remained free. Be not afraid to paint rollers (skin of nail on each side) – so it will be simpler to you to trace corners of nails.
4. If you are not sure that you will be able exactly to trace the line of smile, use cliche better. Paste pattern strips on nails. Make sure that they densely adjoin to nail plate to exclude hit of varnish under them. Paint over outer edge of nail so that layers laid down exactly, without strips. Wait a little that varnish "has grabbed", but has not too strongly thickened. Accurately unstick pattern strips. The cliche is convenient when it is necessary to designate contour and without risk to paint over outer edge of nail, but from it often there are parts of glue in the form of thin plenochka which is difficult for removing with tools. Sometimes instead of pattern strips it is more convenient to use usual office adhesive tape – it leaves less marks.
5. Remove with the proofreader of manicure surplus of varnish from skin around nail. On the sharp end of wooden stick by means of which remove cuticle or on usual toothpick wind a little cotton wool, moisten it in liquid for varnish removal. Very accurately erase the remains of the glued film. Correct the line of smile, without breaking its smooth bend. At this stage the patience as work almost jewelry is required. The Q-tip as an alternative will not be suitable for such delicate work. Moisten vatu more often, but also you watch also that the accidental drop has not washed away already modified line.
6. When the edge of nail is issued properly, cover nails with transparent varnish or varnish of pastel shade for service jacket manicure. Remove surplus of varnish from cuticle and skin around nails. If you want to cover nails with one more varnish coat, before its drawing wait at least minute that varnish kept longer.
