Plaque of light haze most vividly reflects its name - "river bank". It can be harmoniously combined with silver, gilded, scarlet, black and transparent decorative elements. Combinations with blue, turquoise, yellow, emerald, gray and mustard look no less beautiful.

Masters of nail design note that any coating is held in high esteem today. It can be glossy or matte, with a velvety texture or mirror finish, a metallic effect or a shiny gloss. The choice is yours! Be guided only by your own preferences and the individual characteristics of your own pens.

We select the right shape
Last year, eminent stylists and designers chose naturalness and naturalness as a priority direction. But concepts such as femininity and sexuality are back on the fashion stage, backed by practicality and functionality. As for the shape, small ovals continue to be in trend, imitating the natural outlines of the nail plate. But for evening events and social events, it is allowed to "grow" the tips by 8-10 millimeters.
Experts do not recommend giving preference to marigolds with sharp angles. Cat's claws are yesterday, a muwiton and a sign of a complete lack of taste. Square shapes are not an option either. It is better to give preference to an almond-shaped design with tapering edges or a neatly made oval.
Advice!The improved versions, which became a real hit in 2016, look very impressive. It has absorbed a harmonious combination of almond-shaped and square performance and has a sonorous name - "pointe shoes" in honor of the shoes that ballet dancers use in their professional activities. In this case, one important rule must be observed: a straight line is cut off at the very edge.
When creating a manicure in a blue palette, remember that only a high-quality product can ensure uniformity of application and color saturation. Overlapping of several layers is allowed only if certain proportions are observed. They must be as thin as possible, because otherwise the coating will be uneven, and the drying time will increase significantly.
