Aquarium design - a new direction of fashion manicure

As soon as women do not decorate themselves! In the course goes everything: clothes, hair, shoes, accessories and well-groomed nails, of course. Aquarium design of nail gel is a new way of manicure, which creates a transparent base and volumetric drawings on it. This method is suitable only for artificial nails, preferably gel, on natural it is almost impossible to achieve this effect. Aquarium design got its name because of the special technique of applying the image, when it appears that the elements of the pattern are behind the glass in the water column. So they acquire volume, and the manicure looks simply fabulously. With the help of various techniques, the master can achieve the effect of 3D, holographic illusion, imitation of artistic modeling or simply beautiful drawing.

Aquarium gel design - technique of execution:

- At the initial stage it is necessary to prepare nails for building (degrease and dry);

- the next step is the application of the first layer of modeling material onto the plate;

- After preparation, you can proceed directly to the formation of the image, while it is worth using different materials: rhinestones, sequins, pieces of mica, colored sand and powder, precious and semiprecious stones. But it must be remembered that the larger the fragments used, the thicker the nail will become. The final touch is the covering of the nail plate with a layer of gel and smoothing of small irregularities, so it will become smoother and shinier.

Such a method of designing the nail plate can be performed using a single-layer or multi-layer technique. In the latter case, the second and third stages should be repeated until a complete image is created.

Aquarium design has quite a lot of advantages. Firstly, it is practical and with proper care will last more than three months, and during this time the manicure will not lose its original appearance. It has great resistance to abrasion and wear. And do not be afraid that you may get bored with a drawing - you can apply any varnish on top of it, and then wash it off with a product that does not contain acetone (an image protected by a layer of modeling gel, it does not hurt at all). Another advantage - the possibility of correcting the picture. The master in the salon can supplement the image with details or gradually reduce it, leaving as a result an elegant color fringing by the type of a jacket.

Aquarium design has only one drawback: when using voluminous decorative elements or multilayer technology, the thickness of the nail plate increases. On the other hand, if the nail turns out to be thicker, this will give it extra strength.

Aquarium design of nails will be difficult to perform independently, so all lovers of fashionable and stylish manicure should turn to professionals. Only an expert will help to choose the right image, which will be combined with the shape of the nail (round or rectangular) and with your overall style.
