Rainbow Nails With 3D Art

They did nails for glossy photo shoots, exhibitions, and those rare ladies who often preferred the most unusual looks. Over time, we could see more and more bright manicures with voluminous details in the works of Korean nail specialists. Today, the three-dimensional manicure can easily be found on the social profiles of many famous artists, like Jessica Washick - a passionate nail artist based in Portland.

Note: Additional nail treatment with gel and creation of intricate extensions will only be a plus for ladies with weak and fragile nails that require a specific manicure.

Aqua Nails with Rainbow Design

Styling Tips: Nail masters usually create watercolor designs with a white gel polish or gel polishes of other colors. Before you start painting on the chosen color, you need to prepare the nail surface and cover it with a matte top, which will create the rough texture necessary for watercoloring.

Vertical Ombre Rainbow Nails

Do you love ombre nails? Pick nail polish of a bright color, and it will make your manicure look adventurous, edgy, and daring. However, when you choose rainbow designs, it is better to use the colors from the same family.

Mind that not all nail designs require long nails. Colorful nails look prettier if they are short. Otherwise, your nails will look artificial and gaudy. And guys do not like when women look too artificial. Sometimes, it is better to make it simple.

Easy Rainbow Nails
