Designs with a mother-of-pearl effect are often quite rightly called pearl designs, as they resemble the radiance of freshwater or sea pearls.

The demand for mother-of-pearl manicure is explained by its unique characteristics: versatility, radiant appearance, excellent visual correction of defects in the nail plate, enormous variability and richness of design.

You can also use a transparent coating, to which mother-of-pearl will add special sophistication. These colors combine very well with each other, and they can also be applied using the ombre method.

Rules for the durability of designs with pearl rub
What do you need to remember when using pearl powder in your work? Experts recommend the following:
- If you want a beautiful and even coverage, apply pollen in a dense layer, sparingly. Only in this case will the nail shimmer and look aesthetically pleasing;
- Before work, carefully remove the cuticle - it prevents the uniform distribution of the powder. If necessary, rub it in with a soft brush of suitable size or a cotton swab;
- You cannot apply the rub with your finger without first wearing gloves - the human body produces subcutaneous sebum, which is also found on the fingertips. When it gets on the nail, it spoils the coating as a whole, making it short-lived;
- Do not use a matte topcoat on your nails with rubbing – it will remove the shine and shine. It is not recommended to use rubbing and through a stencil;
- Polish your nails well before starting work! This is important for creating a perfectly flat surface on which pollen can easily fall;
A small life hack: before applying the top coat, the rub-in dried in the lamp is covered with a thin layer of base coat. Lightly file the free edge of the nail with a buff. Each nail artist has his own secrets for making the coating durable. They are developed by trial and error, but the result is always impressive: your manicure looks perfect!

Current shades of pedicure: what nail design should be
In pedicure, as well as in manicure, natural and natural shades dominate. When designing your nails, limit yourself to either light tones or saturated dark ones. You should not experiment with neon, too bright and sparkling shades, chameleon varnishes or magnetic gel polishes. All these textures on the legs look banal and defiant.
As for design, it is also worth adhering to moderation. Use classic methods of nail decoration: rhinestones, bouillons, sliders with florists, geometric patterns. This decor will look discreet and neat, and will not interfere with closed shoes.
Summer pedicure deserves special attention. It is in the summer that girls can afford bright and extraordinary nail art, which will look spectacular with sandals, slip-ons and other open shoes. Summer pedicure is replete with pink, blue, turquoise shades with silver decor.
Rules for nail treatment
Most often, pearl shine is combined with light tones of varnish. White, nude and light pink can reveal all the irregularities and defects of the nail plate, and mother-of-pearl will only enhance this effect.
When choosing this option, it is necessary to carefully prepare the nail plate for applying varnish.
The surface of the nail should be perfectly smooth, without any roughness. Carefully but gently polish the surface of the nail plate so as not to touch the nerves. Next, it is recommended to give the nail a correct and symmetrical shape.
No less attention should be paid to the cuticle. It must be carefully processed, and if it is quite large, it is recommended to remove it. The nail is degreased. Then you can start applying varnish.
I would also like to note that light shades tend to be applied unevenly.
In order to avoid unevenness, it is recommended to apply the coating in 3 movements: 1 movement goes exactly in the middle, from the base of the cuticle to the end of the nail. The next ones should be on the sides, filling the side space as much as possible. The movement should be clear but smooth.
The final touch is to seal the tip. This will preserve the coating for as long as possible. After complete drying, it is necessary to apply a second layer, achieving uniform distribution of the coating.
It is very important that the coating dries completely before applying the next one, otherwise the first layer will collapse and the work will have to start again.
Pearl rub or pebbles are applied before the fixing layer, which is also applied in 3 movements.
If the client’s choice fell on pearl stones, then it is recommended to contact an experienced craftsman who can securely fasten them. By creating additional volume, they can cling to clothing, which will inevitably lead to them chipping.
If you are trying to make a pearl manicure at home, then you should give preference to simpler options, that is, varnish or rubbing, combining different colors.
Once you gain a little experience and get better at it, in the future you will be able to make appliques or glue pearls.
What is pearl nail rub?
Over the past few years, pearl rubbing has been incredibly popular among brides. Wedding celebration - what could be more important for a girl? I want to be perfect from my hair to the tips of my nails. This design looks incredibly feminine, elegant and sophisticated, the main feature is the delicate and soft noble radiance that is inherent in natural pearls. Thanks to the very fine texture of the rub (it is microdispersed dust), it is easy to apply and does not create lumps on the surface of the nail. In addition, this ensures uniform illumination under directional light.
After covering, the design looks muted, without excessive gloss. It is extremely popular among fashionistas who want to give their nails tenderness and at the same time modesty. Pearl decor looks absolutely appropriate on nails of different lengths, on women of any age and is suitable for all events.

#2 Pedicure with geometric design: a simple and stylish solution for every day
Geometry has almost outlived its usefulness in manicure, but it feels quite comfortable in pedicure. Geometric shapes fit into the pedicure so succinctly that this pattern is most often used for decoration.
The geometric pattern can be placed both on the thumb and on all the others. At the same time, you should not overload the design with complex shapes; it is enough to draw alternating thin and thick lines on your nails, fill individual parts of the pattern with silver glitter, and highlight the pattern with black gel polish to give it volume.
Geometric decor is loved by many girls, because you can do it yourself, having at your disposal a thin manicure brush. Geometry can also be created using silver and gold foil strips. You will find examples of such nail art in the photo selection at the end of the review.
