Manicure in Matt tones: The Must-Have of This Season

Manicure is an art that is reinvented every season: for this winter the most in are the matte tones, leaving behind the intense brightness of the gel effect, instead of mirror chrome nail polish. So it is already possible to find in the market several of the favorite colors of many well-known brands, but in its mate version.

Although lacquers come in all colors and qualities, it is always better to bet on a good quality, not only to achieve a good effect and more durable over time, but also for the health and beauty of our nails.

An expert advice for a better winter manicure is to apply with nail polish pens, prior to the enamel, a base. Also, remember to let dry between layer and layer, in case you apply more than one - which is usually recommended to achieve beautiful nails and protagonists, lasting several days.

To put together your complete look, the idea is to combine clothes with lips and nails matching - with this opaque, clear effect. Another expert tip is, after applying the lacquer from gel polish nail art, to pass a suitable polisher on the surface of each one, so that any remaining gloss disappears.

With a metallic touch

The gurus of what is coming add that, for a more elegant and sophisticated look, mate can be added a metallic touch, in very specific places. "A very strong look is to draw the line of the French with the top coat, so you will get a matt enamel with the shiny line," said Ana Frigols, manicure specialist and trainer of Creative Nail Designs Spain.

"This trick can be adapted to all types of nail art by mixing these two types of finishes," he added. Another option is to add a small decorative element, such as pearls, geometric drawings or even touches of glitter, as well as stickers or ribbons.

As for the colors that are being used, the red ones, from the lightest ones to the almost black ones, and the violets and blue ones, in their mate version, of course, stand out.
