Manicurists call acrylic a plastic designer mixture of a special liquid (monomer) and colored powder. Any reliefs and patterns can be sculpted from it on the nail plate. The plant theme is always popular in nail design. To make an acrylic flower graceful and neat, you need to practice well. Only then can you “make your nails” neatly, but quickly. By the time the gel dries, you need to completely finish the drawing.
It is necessary
- - monomer;
- - colored powder;
- - acetone or a special monomer improver;
- - acrylic brush;
- - a glass;
- - napkin.
Instructions
Step 1
Polish the surface of the nail plate to a glossy shine, otherwise acrylic flowers will not fit well on its surface. After that, you should apply a base coat to the nails and cover them with varnish - it will become the background for the future drawing. Lay it in two layers.
Step 2
Think about your nail design. It is best to use a ready-made sample or draw an acrylic flower in advance as a model.
Step 3
Purchase a quality monomer from your specialist professional cosmetics store. Pour the liquid into a glass and drip a little acetone or a special monomer improver into it to make the parts of the painted flower more plastic and smooth. Then prepare the powder of the desired colors.
Step 4
Determine the center of the future flower and completely dip the thin acrylic brush into the monomer cup. After that, run the nap along the edge of the glass - this will remove excess air bubbles and moisture.
Step 5
Make the first thin brush strokes - a curved stem of the future flower of two or three wavy lines.
Step 6
Try mixing colors for where the element blends into another. For example, take red powder and a small amount of black. Grab some monomer with a brush, then dip in red powder. Lightly touch the red droplet (formed on the tip of the brush) of black powder.
Step 7
Draw the first petal of the flower by gently smoothing the gel with a brush stick.
Step 8
Before proceeding with another element, you must wait a few seconds. After that, you can draw wavy lines on the painted surface of the flower petal to give it a natural look.
Step 9
Do not complicate your task and do not choose too complex a pattern - it will look too pretentious on a small nail plate. It is enough to make the flower no more than five petals.
Step 10
When you have painted all the petals, try mixing the colors as described above and carefully apply them around the center of the flower.
Step 11
Drop a ball of contrasting tone (or a mixture of two basic working tones) exactly in the middle of the flower. You can leave the ball as it is, or move it with a stick to the edges of the center of the flower to create a bowl-shaped figure.
Step 12
When it dries slightly, add another drop to the bowl. The main pattern on the nail is ready. Apply additional touches to the nail plate if desired.
Step 13
Let the acrylic painting dry completely and cover your nails with a couple of coats of special protective varnish.
