In recent years, manicure as such has significantlyhas changed. Now it is not only nails painted with varnish. Manicure is now a whole art. Entire compositions are created on nails - from simple patterns to entire paintings. In nail design, not only varnish is used, but also various glitter, threads, stencils and much more. Nail design with rhinestones has gained particular popularity. At first, clothes were decorated with rhinestones, then rhinestones began to appear on interior items, then they began to participate in holiday makeup and finally, they firmly established themselves on the nails of fashionistas. And for good reason, because decorating nails with rhinestones is quite within the power of any woman - you only need the necessary tools, desire and a bit of imagination. And, of course, good taste and a sense of harmony play an important role in a high-quality manicure with rhinestones. Rhinestone patterns on nails will look beautiful only if you have taste and a sense of harmony, otherwise rhinestones on nails will look like ordinary cheap stuff. We think you know what rhinestones are, but we will explain what they are. Rhinestones are small decorations that imitate semi-precious and precious stones. Rhinestones are made from several types of materials - glass, rock crystal, plastic, zirconium. So, rock crystal is used to make Swarovski rhinestones for nails. One side of the rhinestone has many facets, due to which the rhinestones sparkle and play with colors, like real precious stones, and the other side of the rhinestones is smooth so that they can be glued to a particular surface. The color of the rhinestones and their shape also differ in great variety, due to which you can create a wide variety of designs on your nails with rhinestones. Rhinestones can be very small - for creating the smallest details of the pattern, and very large, with which you can decorate the entire nail plate using only one crystal. On average, the size of rhinestones varies from 0.5 mm to 4 mm. There are rhinestones of oval, round, square, droplet and polyhedron shapes. And the color range fluctuates within 20 different shades. The designs on nails with Halogen rhinestones look especially impressive - they shimmer with all the colors of the rainbow under the sun's rays, which is undoubtedly very beautiful and festive. Rhinestones on short nails can look just as good as on long ones. Here, as they say, it's a matter of taste. It's just that not everyone likes long nails, and some - young mothers, for example - have to make do with a short manicure willy-nilly, so as not to scratch their beloved child with long nails. You can also often see rhinestones on toenails. In our article we will tell you everything about rhinestones - about the technique of applying rhinestones to nails, about the laws of harmony necessary for high-quality nail design with rhinestones, about the types of design with rhinestones, as well as about many other things that will be useful in the life of any woman.
Laws of harmony in the design of nails
As we have already said, non-compliance with lawsharmony can turn your manicure with rhinestones into a tasteless cheap thing. In this section of the article, we will talk about what should be followed when creating patterns with rhinestones on nails. Of course, there are no strict rules when decorating nails. The main thing here is to follow a simple rule - the less, the better. This rule is due to the fact that rhinestones not only make the manicure more elegant, but also significantly weigh down the nails not only with their weight, but also with an excessive abundance of shine and volume. The presence of a large number of large rhinestones on the nails is especially dangerous, since they attract much more attention to themselves and greatly clutter the nails. In this regard, it will be safer to use small rhinestones. In order for the pattern on the nails with rhinestones to be more attractive, you should choose one thing: either scatter small rhinestones evenly over all the nails, or concentrate the main massive pattern on one finger. It is permissible to create a light, barely perceptible pattern using several rhinestones, folding into an airy thin pattern on all the nails of the hands. But if the pattern is supposed to be made of massive and bright rhinestones, then it is better to place this pattern only on one finger. It should also be noted that colorless rhinestones look good with any colored varnish, but if you want to create a pattern on your nails with rhinestones in the style of minimalist nail design, then it is better to choose stones of pastel shades. In this case, pastel stones in combination with small transparent ones will not violate the boundaries of good taste. In addition, in the case of using colored rhinestones, it should be taken into account that they should either match some tone of the chosen pattern, or should contrast with the main design of the nail. Otherwise, the decoration of nails with rhinestones will be irreparably damaged by gaudiness.
The technique of drawing crystals
If you decide to decorate your nails yourselfrhinestones, then this will not be a problem - rhinestones can be purchased at any store that sells the necessary manicure accessories. In addition, you should know how to glue rhinestones on your nails, since not all types of rhinestones require only varnish for reliable attachment. Large and figured rhinestones should be fixed with glue. Now let's move on directly to how to decorate your nails with rhinestones. First, you should prepare your nails for a manicure - file your nails to the desired shape and size, remove hangnails, trim your cuticles. Then, before starting decorative work, you should apply either a base coat to your nails or create the intended design with varnish. Do not forget that you should not wait for the varnish to dry before gluing rhinestones to your nails! Rhinestones should be applied to undried varnish so that they stick to the nail plate. In order to take small rhinestones, you will need a toothpick soaked in water or another wooden stick. To glue large rhinestones, use glue. After the rhinestones are glued to the nails, you should wait a little for the varnish to dry. Then apply a fixer to the nails. In stores, you can find a special fixer for manicure with rhinestones. In fact, rhinestones are always applied at the penultimate stage of the manicure, and the last stage will always be the application of the fixer. In general, it is not difficult to make a nail design with rhinestones - a photo of the stage of gluing rhinestones is presented below:
Before gluing rhinestones on your nails, you shouldcarefully work out the pattern on paper, that is, make a sketch of the manicure. This way, you will be able to plan not only the background, but also harmoniously arrange the rhinestones. When using rhinestones in a manicure, you can take into account some advice from nail design masters. So, if you lay out voluminous details of patterns and colors from rhinestones along the borders of two shades of varnish in the background drawing, the rhinestones will be almost invisible. They will only add volume and shine to the main pattern, but will not spoil the manicure in any way. Moreover, it is best to use transparent rhinestones in this case. In this case, the use of Swarovski rhinestones for nails is relevant. Also, you should not combine rhinestones with other types of decorations - threads, feathers, piercings, acrylic molding, etc. And if you doubt how to choose the right color and pattern, then in this case you can use bindis for manicure (ready-made patterns that just need to be transferred to the nail plate). Extended nails with rhinestones look especially beautiful - you can always see photos of such nails in catalogs dedicated to beauty and manicure, as well as directly in beauty salons. Extended nails with rhinestones look better because there is much more space on such nails, which means that the composition of rhinestones will not be too overloaded. For example, you can see how rhinestones look on nails - a photo of the patterns is presented below:

And this is not very good, since then you will have to restore your nails for a long time. That is why most women prefer extended nails with rhinestones. By the way, this procedure is very convenient before a party, especially if your nails are still too short, and you want to shine with long beautiful nails. In this case, using nail extensions with rhinestones is an excellent solution. Both fast and beautiful! And most importantly - festive.
