Beauty is partly an optical illusion, when lips look more lush than they really are, hair looks lush, and legs look long because of the right model of jeans and heels. The same goes for manicures. Short and thick fingers can be visually elongated with the help of coating. And the nails themselves, by the way, can make them longer, picking up the desired design.

OBOZREVATEL tells a few tricks to achieve the desired effect of graceful hands. Nails of an oval or almond shape automatically extend the fingers (to see a photo, scroll to the end of the page) .

According to nail specialists, the secret to optical lengthening is to choose the right shade of nail polish. There is no universal color that will visually lengthen your nails. After all, everything depends on the tone of your skin. If it has a warm bronze tone, forget about the purple and gray palette. Give preference to coral colors with a warm reddish undertone. For cold pinkish skin the best solution would be a red nail polish of a cold tone. And in the "black list" will be mint and turquoise colors.

What nail polish is sure to lengthen your nails?

The color of the nail polish that will accurately lengthen the nail plate is close to the skin tone of the fashionista. So, a pinkish shade will be the best friend for girls with fair skin, yellowish-beige - for those who are tanned, and caramel - for mulatto.

Designs for lengthening nails

Gemstone Shades

Choose dark blue, burgundy or even black, but don't forget that dark nail polish draws attention to the shape of your nails.

Lunar Manicure

The moon manicure has long been in the shade, but it's perfect to stretch out your nail plate and fingers a bit. Create a contrast by making the moon light and the rest of the nail dark or bright.

Vertical stripes and rhinestones

Stripes will solve the problem of short nails. The main condition is that you must create a contrast between the main color of the nail polish and the stripes, so that they do not merge. Reflective design elements are also useful for ladies.

A little earlier OBOZREVATEL told us what the American manicure is. Universal design is liked by many celebrities. This is a more relaxed interpretation of the classic French version. For more details, see the link.
