Wedding Nails – Elegant Gallery Section Two.

This section is aimed toward those that need inspiration for a special occasion like a wedding. Wedding nails are generally for the bride and match her dress perfectly. The bridesmaids will also need wedding nails and coordination is required because you absolutely cannot upstage the bride.

Manicures have origins traced back to Greek Mythology but in the last few decades, there has been a lot of improvement and innovation. Better quality polishes are produced to make things easier for home enthusiasts and color ranges have dramatically widened. You can find texturized polishes with sparkling glitter and sequins and all manner of delights.

Bridal and Wedding Nails.

Fingernails and toenails have rapidly become canvases to express an artistic edge. Nail art is sculpted, pierced, stenciled and painted creating unique, eye-catching and intricate designs. Some people think it’s trivial but nowadays it is big business and they even have Nail competitions held annually all over the world. It’s becoming a popular and professional industry that’s enjoying rapid growth. A manicurist may be considered as a modern day minimalist painter. American salons spend over $6 billion on services every year. It’s a creative new tool to enhance the professional image of a working and fashionable women.

Black and Golden Tips.

Apply base coat to give your nails a smooth and clean look. Over that, create an elegant golden and black border to highlight the tips of your fingers. Color tip with pure black and then give a sleek golden border on the inside. Place a sequin on the peak of the border.

Pointy and Sleek Wedding Nails.

Not just for the rank and file of weddings but ideal for the bride too. With long, sleek, and pointy nails, simply add an extra elegant touch with this design. Go shiny and smooth by applying a base coat and color the pointy tips with bold white.

Purple and Reflecting Sequins.

If you want wow and oomph, this is the go-to color. Apply a thick coat of bright purple, then a top shiny coat to make it smoother and cleaner. Add reflecting sequins to one finger at the cuticle.

This design will go with many wedding dresses.

The Wedding Look.

Replicate your wedding dress for your wedding nails. Use a solid white color in thick layers, plus sequins in multiple sizes. Throw pearl sequins on some of the fingers. Apply different patterns of sequins on different fingers and maybe make a design with a bright color on the middle finger.

Black Fire.

Black will never go out of style. Coat a thick layer of bold black color with a smooth transparent top coat. Paint one finger neon or metallic red. Spread the red in a random pattern to create a look of fire.

Pastel Purple and Blue.

Pastels are a real cool color for summers. They also help give your hands a lighter look. Use a pastel purple colour. Make the layer thick and then color the tip in a pastel blue to create a bold border. Combine other pastels to create a similar look.

3D Flower.

This may take a few tries to perfect. Paint one of the fingers; possibly the one with a more spacious and long nail, with a white flower. Use bold white in a thick application to create a flower. Give some curve to your strokes to create a 3D effect. Place pearl sequins in the middle of the flower to complete the look. Perfect for a wedding.

Black and Gold Fest.

Black and Gold always create a great look. This idea is perfect for a party. Use a glittery gold as the base. Paint the tip black and add a second sleeker border below. This idea is perfect if you are trying to be quick but elegant at the same time.

Black Against Pale Pink.

Paint a pale or pastel pink as the base coat. Take some bold black to create some intricate looking designs. Keep the designs as intricate as possible to show the pale pink making natural, smooth, and clean.

Black and Purple.

Black and purple usually speak of mystery. Use some light purple with a black border at the tip. Apply the purple in a thick coat as the base and use the black to highlight the tips.

Black Veil.

Use some shiny black to paint your fingers, apply thick coats on each finger except one. Stroke that lightly with the brush to leave some transparency. Apply a glittery black to create a flower pattern, not your usual wedding veil.

Forest.

Paint a base coat and use glittery hues of green and gold, giving a wild forest look. Create an intricate flower pattern on a few fingers with a bold black. The picture shows a rose pattern with curvy leaves to enhance the wild look.

Golden Black.

Use a glittery black and gold for this design. Create a small intricate pattern of three flowers on the two middle fingers. You can reverse the pattern as well to create the same look with a twist.

Purple Dazzle.

Use purple with a maroon touch for this one. Use gold and black to add sleek lines, perfectly combined with wedding wear. Alternate the base and tip colors to be more creative. Perhaps not ideal for the wedding reception but if you have time to change for the evening.

Starry Black.

This is another great idea to create with black, apply thick coats of black polish on each finger. Decorate one of the fingers with golden triangular sequins and then sprinkle some reflecting sequins over it.
