Nail decoration is an art in which creativity has no limits. Most often, we get inspiration from painting techniques, such as watercolor and one stroke. The stamping , the 3D and foil technique are also popular because they are easy and the result is quite a professional look.

The one stroke technique is based on making drawings based on different paints, the objective being to create gradations and to obtain volume and depth. The contrast gives life to the chosen pattern. Thanks to this technique, one can create beautiful floral patterns. In the context of fall leaf nail art, you can mix yellow and red to get a nice orange gradient. To create one-stroke patterns, you can use either the flat of a nail art brush or the edge of it (to make fine lines). You can even lightly tap the brush, to create relief in the drawing.

Watercolor nail art is ideal for gel nails. To create the watercolor effect, the paint is diluted to create soft colors and almost transparent gradations. The rendering depends on the amount of water used and the way to dilute the color.

Stamping is one of the most popular nail art techniques. It is thanks to a stamp that we can make a pretty decoration on natural nails or false nails. The stamping technique consists of transferring a pattern engraved in a plate onto the nail using a stamp and a stamping varnish. For an impeccable result, the varnish must be very pigmented and opaque.

The foil technique consists of sticking a film with a very fine metallic finish on part of the nail or on the entire nail. We are looking for a metallic effect. The film allows you to create several decorative effects and combines wonderfully with other nail art techniques.
