Interesting design ideas
The nail industry has several original ideas for orange manicure.
Citrus assortment
No less popular is the design depicting not just one orange, but a whole assortment. You can choose any fruits and berries. It all depends on personal preference.
They look beautiful: kiwi, banana, lemon, watermelon, pineapple, a sprig of grapes or even strawberries and raspberries.
Options: make a drawing on each finger or draw several fruits on one at once.
The embodiment of design
How to draw an orange slice:
- First apply the background color. The coating needs to be dried.
- Using a thin brush, draw the outline of a semicircle with the base slightly curved towards the center, inward (the pattern should imitate the shape of a real slice).
- Using a medium-thick brush, draw a white arc along the upper edge of the plate and add jagged edges. These are the insides of the slice.
- The outline should be slightly uneven, as in nature, the lines are unequal in thickness.
- Using a thin brush, add blurry veins and the middle. They are made pale and slightly blurred. Dry it.
- Apply the finishing coat and hold it in a lamp to cure.
To fill your hand, it is recommended to practice on paper or false nails.
To decorate the fruit, you can use rhinestones or special transparent half-beads. They create the effect of dew. This drawing looks very beautiful.
Application techniques
Each nail artist has his own techniques and secrets for decorating nails in the style of tropical citruses. Nail design methods are based on the principles of clarity and professionalism of the artist. To create a design with citrus fruits, use the following simple techniques for applying patterns to nails.
- Reverse stamping involves transferring a finished slider to the nail plate. An orange nail sticker looks very neat. A similar technique is successfully used at home. The surface of the nails is covered with varnish of the selected color. The pattern is applied to the coated surface using a silicone stamp, which can be purchased at a specialty store.
- Photo design allows you to use original cross-sectional photos of orange tangerines or lemons to decorate your nails. Photo stickers with citrus fruits are purchased in a professional store, easily and simply attached to the nails and covered with a fixative.
- Artistic painting must be learned; it is a complex technique that requires skills and creative inclinations. You can paint a citrus fruit with a special brush or toothpick.
Let's look at the nail design process step by step. For the design we choose the option with oranges. For coating it is recommended to use gel polish or acrylic. The application of these products will ensure a long-lasting manicure.
- Trim cuticles, straighten the shape and prepare the surface of the nails.
- Degrease the nail plates with a special compound.
- Apply the base and dry for a couple of minutes in a lamp.
- Prepare a thin brush, white and orange gel polishes.
- Cover the nail surfaces with colored gel polish, leaving the ring fingers for decoration.
- You need to draw fruits slowly, highlighting the boundaries, as realistically as possible. First, you need to draw a semicircle with white gel polish, which we will later take as the basis for a citrus slice.
- Then it is dried in a lamp for several minutes.
- Add an orange tone to the top of the selected outline. Draw the lines characteristic of the fruit zest. Dry the layer in a lamp for several minutes.
- We form the pulp of the fruit by painting the slices with orange gel polish. To get a rich shade, you need to apply 2 layers. Dry each layer in a lamp.
- The veins of orange peel are highlighted with the same varnish and can be dried.
- The remaining space on the nails of the ring fingers is painted black. For a rich shade, apply 3 layers of varnish. Next, dry the nail surface in a lamp.
- Top coat is applied.
- Chinese painting is expressed using the double stroke technique. Exotic fruits are applied with a flat brush dipped in 2-3 colors of acrylic. The tint mixture is shaded at the intersection of colors. The result is an effect with a smooth and graceful transition of shades. This is how the drawing is displayed most realistically.
Features of manicure with strawberries
There are a great many modifications of strawberry manicure. They vary in color, design texture and application methods.
The color palette of the picture can be predominantly red or white. Perhaps it will be light pink. Well, cutting a berry on a black or white background will make your look luxurious.
The design is made smooth or voluminous (with a 3D effect). The image can be either schematic or with drawing of small details.
The strawberry French manicure looks great: a French manicure decorated with a berry.
Design methods
Colors with which the design is combined: delicate shades of light green, lemon, pink. And even this is not necessary. You just need to make sure that clothes, makeup and nail art are in harmony with each other and create a complete image.
Manicure is part of the overall look and should not conflict with clothing items and accessories. Think about what suits your type of appearance best.
What materials will be needed to complete the drawing?
You can draw strawberries in the following ways:
- by hand
- with ready-made prints
- using sculpting
Before you start your manicure, prepare everything you need. Nothing should distract from the process of creating a masterpiece.
You will need:
- base coat
- gel and acrylic varnishes of the colors needed to create the picture of your choice
- brushes: for the base coat; thin, for drawing; dots (stylus) to create a 3D effect (if desired)
- fixative to complete the design
The list can be continued by including a lamp for lighting and for drying nails, tape, and scissors. Instead of dots, needles or toothpicks are suitable. It is also better to prepare additional decorative elements in advance: rhinestones, small stones, and so on, in accordance with your imagination.
Length and shape of nails
To create a design with large strawberries, it is better if the nails are of medium length and their shape is square or oval. Short ones are also suitable. It is on them that sliders are most often applied.
On long ones, a coating of one base color with a small strawberry element somewhere on the edge, as well as a strawberry jacket, looks great.
Peculiarities
A special feature of fruit and berry manicure is the riot of colors. This is a very bright and strong solution in nail design that can attract attention and also lift your mood at any time. This manicure can easily become the highlight of your look. In this case, you yourself are the creator of your nail design, because the variety of fruits and berries is quite wide; you can choose any bright fruit. The peculiarity of this manicure is that the decor itself should stand out clearly against the background of the main coating. That is, the nail itself should be painted in some basic and discreet color.
But in some cases, contrasting design options are also created, when both the background and the design on the nails are very bright and colorful. This manicure looks very catchy, so another feature of it is that when creating it you need to know when to stop.
When making fruit or berry nail art, it is best to highlight several nail plates with bright fruits or berries, but try not to decorate all the nails, otherwise it will look a little vulgar.
To create a feminine manicure with berries and fruits, it is better to choose one or two types of decor so that it looks harmonious. The main feature of any fruit manicure design is that it looks very bold and you can use it to stand out. This nail design is completely unsuitable for the office. It is best to do this if you do not have a dress code at work.
What goes with strawberry manicure?
Strawberry nail art allows you to add a touch of variety to your everyday look and lift your spirits. The modern beauty industry offers a wide palette of red varnishes of various shades, as well as a wide selection of decorative elements, so not only professionals can create original and exclusive design options. The main thing is to choose it in accordance with age and social status in order to harmoniously complement the chosen image.
Before a nail art session, you should think carefully about what the berry design goes with, and how best to “play with” it. To do this, you need to consider a few simple tips.
- Today it is not necessary to match the color of nail polish to the tone of lipstick or red items from your wardrobe - it is enough to balance the color scheme of clothes, makeup and manicure.
- A neatly drawn strawberry will look perfect on both short and long nails if you choose the right design option.
- Scarlet berries will be an excellent decoration for a beach manicure and pedicure, but you don’t have to deprive yourself of such pleasure during the cold season.
- Colorful strawberry nail art will fit well into the image of teenage girls and young ladies. Older ladies should also not deprive themselves of this pleasure, but it is better to give preference to a classic red manicure and decorate only the ring fingers with elegant berries.
- In a business setting, a strawberry manicure will look vulgar and defiant, so it’s better to avoid it, but at a youth party in a club or relaxing with friends, you won’t find a more interesting option.
- When preparing for a date, you can opt for a classic strawberry manicure, which should not be flashy. It is better if it is an original French manicure (traditional white background and a scarlet berry on the free edge) or a “Strawberries and Cream” design (red berries in white drops on a light background or a French manicure with a white base and a red “smile” line, decorated with pieces of fimo in the form of strawberries).
- Modern wedding trends offer newlyweds interesting ideas for themed weddings, where the main symbol of the celebration is a flower (rose, orchid, sunflower) or fruit (tangerine, watermelon, cherry, lemon, and so on). And if the newlyweds are planning to have a strawberry-style wedding, an elegant French jacket with decoration in the form of miniature berries will be the perfect decoration for the bride’s fingers.
Advice! Strawberry manicure involves a frivolous and playful mood, so it is better to “turn” short nails and medium length into a berry.
Those with long nails are advised to opt for a sophisticated French manicure or a plain cover with decor in the form of small, neat strawberries. Regardless of a woman’s age and status, a manicure should emphasize her beauty, instill self-confidence and give comfort in any situation. Only in this case, positive emotions and increased attention from others will be guaranteed!
Juicy design ideas
The juiciest and brightest version of fruit and berry manicure is the strawberry design. Strawberries can add flirtatiousness to your manicure; strawberries in milk look especially beautiful. Such a “delicious” manicure will attract a lot of attention. Since cherry and emerald colors are currently trending, creating nail art with ripe cherries would be a very beautiful design. This pattern is painted with burgundy and dark green varnish, usually very dark or very light backgrounds are used for this; the cherries on it look beautiful and playful.
Any manicure with berries is now very popular; with its help you can create a juicy look in any season of the year. Also, images of kiwi are often used for fruit-style nail designs, since this fruit is also distinguished by very bright and rich colors. Nail art with watermelon slices is no less popular. Nails with images of apples, bananas, lemons and oranges also look very stylish and juicy. All this variety of fruits can make a manicure stylish and unique.

This is a very original design that will be unique.
You can also paint various fruits and berries on your nails together or separately, as well as combine colors in bright and interesting ways.
Nowadays, the fashionable trend for creating fruit manicure is design with Fimo patterns. It represents the creation of a beautiful three-dimensional pattern that combines ideal shapes and patterns. Fimo are three-dimensional pencil-shaped sticks made from polymer clay. Such a stick can be approximately 15 centimeters long; it is cut very thin into plates that are glued to the nails.
Fruits and berries are the most popular direction of Fimo-manicure.
Moreover, such sticks not only have the color of a particular fruit, but also completely repeat its shape. You can easily find such sticks in the form of oranges, apples, strawberries, kiwis, raspberries, watermelon and other fruits.
Such images can be made voluminous, or very flat, by cutting them into thin strips, gluing them on the nails and filing them.
Also a stylish trend this season is creating a manicure with glitter. These are loose glitter that are applied on top of a sticky layer of varnish. They will add brightness and shine to your manicure and can be perfectly combined with berry and fruit nail designs. Also no less popular and relevant now are rhinestones, which can also diversify such a rich and bright nail art.
Design examples
Fruit manicure can vary greatly in design. The striped white and black background, on which bright fruits are depicted, looks very beautiful and unusual. An example would be a black and white manicure with bananas. All bright and juicy fruits and berries look great on a white or milky background. An interesting example would be a cross-section of a juicy orange on a white background. You can draw many orange slices on your nails, or you can draw one large fruit.
Berries also look great on a white background. You can depict raspberries, blackberries, strawberries or cherries. Such a contrasting combination of background and pattern will look very advantageous. A colorful combination in a manicure will be strawberry and banana.
You can paint small images of these fruits and berries on your nails by combining them. Moreover, you can choose any background. Lemon print is very fashionable now.
Particularly relevant is a design with images of whole lemons with bright green leaves on a plain background. These juicy yellow fruits look very stylish on a mint or soft pink background. You can also depict fruits on a branch; a drawing in the form of a lemon tree on a white background will be very beautiful.
Manicures with pineapples are also very popular now. Usually these fruits are drawn quite large, and since they are brown in color, the background is chosen to be very bright. It can be a yellow, orange, green or lilac background. But pineapples even look very advantageous on a gray background: you can draw a mesh on it in a bright shade - the outline of a pineapple, or you can depict many of these small pineapples with colored varnishes.
A very stylish example of a manicure is a design with medium-sized watermelon slices, made in the form of triangles and arranged in a chaotic manner. Moreover, several marigolds can be stolen with such a small print, and one can be highlighted with a large image of a watermelon. This is a very extraordinary solution. Now the lilac color is very popular, so images of blueberries, blueberries or plums will be very fashionable and will look beautiful. These shades are now in trend, so this way you can create a very original and at the same time relevant design.

Bright and colorful fruits and berries look very advantageous on a black background. To do this, you can choose any combination of fruits, the main thing is that the fruits are not too dark so that they do not blend into the background. Exotic fruits, such as passion fruit or papaya, look very interesting and unusual. All exotic fruits are very bright and interesting in appearance, so you can easily diversify your nail plates with nail art in a tropical style.
The most classic and popular design is with apples on the nails. Moreover, such fruits of different colors in one manicure look very bright.
Summer fruit nail designs can be very diverse, the main thing is to combine incongruous things and not be afraid to experiment.
Design technique
Strawberry nail designs can be done using different techniques. Let's look at the main ones.
Classic drawing
The first option: the strawberry fills the entire nail plate: the background is painted completely red with black, yellow or golden seed dots. The hole area is green in color, like a leaf. All fingers are shaped the same. This design appeared first and was the most popular for a long time.
Second option. Seven or eight nails are covered with a nude, monochromatic varnish, and 2 or 3 have a berry on them, for example, on a white background.
Third option. A red berry with a green leaf is drawn on a white background. The drawings should be the same or slightly different, but definitely in harmony with each other.
How to perform
Step by step drawing strawberries on your nails:
- Apply base coat.
- Paint them with red varnish and let dry.
- In the hole area, paint leaves with green varnish using a thin brush.
- To detail the design, paint the veins of the leaves using a varnish of a different shade.
- Apply the “grains” with golden varnish.⦁ Cover with sealer.
A leaf can be drawn by applying a green dot at the base of the nail to the red polish that has not yet dried, and then using a needle or toothpick, pull it down from the point of the line, forming a leaf.
3d design
Voluminous strawberries on nails will require a little more time.
How to perform
- Apply base coat.
- Paint your nails with red varnish and immediately, until it dries, colorless.
- After waiting a little, use a dots or something instead to press on individual sections of the plate, simulating grains on the berries.
- When everything is dry, add a green leaf at the base or simply draw a stripe.
- Cover with sealer.
Modeling
This is another option for voluminous nail art.
Suitable materials include acrylic, extension gel or special clay – fimo.
Modeling is an addition to the already completed nail coating. There should never be anything “too much” here.
One, maximum two strawberries in the overall nail design are enough.
How to perform
- Take the material with dots, roll it into a ball and apply it to the nail.
- Using a thin brush, form a berry from the ball, gently pressing it along the edges onto the nail.
- Do the same for the remaining berries.
- Decorate with glitter, micro glitter or something else.
- Cover with sealer.
Strawberry French
A classic French manicure can be decorated with an elegant berry.
How to perform
- Apply base coat.
- Use white polish to create a smile.
- Cover with sealer.
- Use acrylic paints to paint miniature berries according to your chosen pattern.
- Apply sealer again.
Strawberries and cream
Various modifications are possible here. It all depends on your imagination.
Strawberries and cream on nails are most often a compositional design.
How to perform
- Apply base coat.
- Cover them with varnish, choosing colors according to your idea.
- Draw strawberries or their individual elements.
- Use white gel polish to apply drops symbolizing spilled cream.
- Cover with sealer.
Stickers (sliders) with images of strawberries
When you are short on time, it is better to use special stickers - sliders. They need to be carefully distributed over the nail and smoothed out. Literally 5 minutes - and you have a fresh nail design!
Citrus manicure stylish options
There are times in life when you really want to add some “sourness” to your image. And if a bright clothing style in acidic shades has become the norm of the image, then a citrus manicure will acquire the status of the final stage in the image. After all, such a joyful color will always lift your spirits, invigorate you and give a touch of freshness. To create a citrus manicure, stock up on multi-colored acrylic paints, a thin brush and a container of water for rinsing.
Juicy fruits are a great idea for nail design in the hot summer. This manicure goes well with summer outfits and is perfect for vacation.
Bright colors will cheer you up even if the weather outside is not pleasant.
You can draw a design in the form of a watermelon or kiwi yourself - use ready-made techniques.
Technique for drawing fruits with gel plasticine Trendynails
Trendynails plasticine is a unique modeling material. It allows you to obtain realistic three-dimensional details.
With its help it is convenient to create designs with flowers, animal figures and, of course, fruits.
It is easy to use and dries quickly under a UV lamp.
Operating procedure:
We prepare the nails for manicure according to the standard scheme, and apply a full coating of gel polish.
- We wipe our finger with a clinser so that the plasticine does not stick to the finger when rolling. Roll a ball of white plasticine and roll it over your nail into a thin flat cake. You can use a special silicone brush to trim the shape a little.
- Using a silicone hatchet brush or other tool convenient for you, we make notches that imitate the architecture of a pineapple. You will get a thin mesh, like a peel. We press the grooves carefully, without using the tool against the material.
- Using a manicure hatchet, we place small dots in each cell.
- Using a silicone brush, roll out another ball of plasticine - this will be the tail of the pineapple. We place it near the cuticle area. We form sharp leaves from the ball. Dry under a UV lamp.
- Let's add details - apply thin strokes with gel paste along the contour of the pineapple diamonds to emphasize the texture. The paste should not flow down the diamonds, otherwise the pineapple will turn out sloppy. Apply a couple more strokes to the tail of the pineapple. We polymerize in a lamp. There is no need to cover the plasticine with a top coat, so the design can be considered complete.
- Less is more - it’s enough to decorate only one or two nails on each hand with a pattern to attract attention.
- Don’t be afraid to experiment - you can use not only one color as a substrate, but, for example, a gradient with a transition from one tone to another.
- Fruit designs will be complemented by decorative elements such as sparkles, rhinestones, and ribbons.
- Even if you have short nails, the summer design will look beautiful - don’t deny yourself rich shades.
- If you are going to relax at the seaside, then it is better to avoid convex elements in the design - such a manicure may last a little less than usual.
Use not only ready-made drawing techniques - invent your own, and then your summer manicure will impress others.
Fruits are a great summer treat and, this season, also a source of inspiration for fashionable manicures. A manicure like this will complement your look and also lift your spirits. Moreover, for nail design you can use the image of only one fruit or draw a different one on each nail.
If you have little experience in design, then start drawings with simpler fruits: kiwi or strawberries. They are the easiest to perform. If you want to create a kiwi, then draw a slice of this fruit using green varnish. Then lightly dampen the brush in acetone and paint the white center, which will be slightly blurred. All you have to do is draw the black seeds. Delicious fruit is ready!
If you find it difficult to choose a suitable background for your summer nail design, then choose white. On it, all the images of fruits will look very harmonious.

Orange manicure with design: fashion ideas in 2021-2022
Of course, even the most intense color in a manicure can coexist with a variety of designs. In the 2021-2022 season, nail art masters offer decor options that have already become traditional, but in a new interpretation.
Orange matte manicure
Matte finish is a design option that every woman can do on her own at home. It will take a little time and additional equipment. But the result will be really stylish and fashionable. As if marigolds covered with suede will delight the owner and attract the attention of others.
What you need to create a matte finish:
- varnish of the desired shade;
- matte top.
Tip: be sure to apply a setting compound over the top. This way the manicure will last longer.
Orange French on nails
An unusual French jacket is a sign of subtle taste. You can choose a transparent, milky or beige base. And highlight the tip of the nail with apricot or orange. The main background can be complemented with delicate patterns - black, gold or white.
Tip: if the length of the plate allows, you can apply glitter to the very tip.
The latest trend in nail design is a combination of colored French manicure and moon manicure.
Orange manicure with drawings
Orange is an excellent background for contrasting designs. Another option is to apply an orange design to a neutral or contrasting base. Both options allow you to create a spectacular, stylish design. If you plan to do a manicure at home, you will have to practice. If the artist lacks talent, stickers, stencils, and foil adhesive strips will come to the rescue.
With orange
This is a traditional version of the pattern in orange. A bright summer design can be achieved by gluing or drawing slices of juicy fruit on a plate. It is better to choose a neutral base - transparent, milky, white. Don't think that orange is solely a symbol of summer. This is also a New Year's option - complement the design with a drawing of a Christmas ball, candle, or cup of cocoa.
With stripes
An excellent option to visually lengthen the nail is vertical stripes. They can simply be drawn on a contrasting or neutral background. Geometric patterns made of foil material on an adhesive base look impressive.
With flowers
Flowers on nails are a win-win option when you need to create a delicate, but at the same time fresh and daring look. You shouldn’t look for orange-hued flowers in nature; you can come up with them yourself.
Orange manicure with rhinestones
Rhinestones attract the eye and make the design more expensive. The most common mistake is overload. The abundance of rhinestones has “killed” more than one nail design option. You need to select stones very carefully for orange nails.
It is better to choose one longitudinal strip or highlight the hole with small stones than to fill all the plates with sparkling fake diamonds.
Tip: if you want to get a filled longitudinal strip without gaps, first apply a contrasting varnish or rubbing to the place where the rhinestones will be.
Stylish orange design with rubbing
Mirror rubbing is a great option for making a beautiful accent in a bright manicure. Choose a shade of the rub that is close to the main tone. We recommend highlighting just one (or two) fingers on your hand. This is enough for such an intense color as orange.
Orange manicure with glitter
Sequins are an option for independent design. Make a small strip, cover the entire plate or just part of it - any option for decorating your nails with glitter is relevant.
Orange ombre and gradient
One of the most noticeable and cheerful gradient options in manicure.
There are several options that are fashionable this season:
- festive and bright design of three colors - red, orange and yellow;
- calm of two shades - nude and orange.
Additionally, this design can be decorated with decor, but you should choose calm options - splashes, drops, patterns.
Orange cat eye
To create a cat eye you will need magnetic polish and an additional tool - a magnet. Do not forget that the magnetic varnish must be “shake” before use. But they do this not with intense movements, but by smoothly rolling the bottle in their palms.
Cat's eye looks great on cinnabar, copper, mustard and other autumn shades.
Gold plated
Orange and gold are a wonderful tandem. Gold patterns or highlighting one nail with gold is an option for autumn or winter design, when you want to add color to gray everyday life.
Orange manicure in the style of “different hands”
Many people remember the fashion for laces of different colors or stylish boots and sneakers. Nail art did not stand aside - the “different hands” design allows you to realize the most daring ideas. You can decorate one hand in orange shades, and the other in contrasting shades - black and orange, cinnabar and green. Or take orange as a base, but choose different designs or patterns for different hands.
Meaning
Orange is an intermediate color between red and yellow. Depending on the shade, it can be joyful, warm and gentle or aggressive and defiant. The general meaning of color is activity, movement, health.
The warning ability of orange color stands out separately, so it is often used to highlight uniform elements, for example, among road workers.
In general, the color orange is perceived as a positive color, but some people find it annoying or even threatening. Rejection of color indicates the presence of complexes and a lack of desire to be seen.
Interesting facts about color:
- Orange is used in Buddhist clothing. In their opinion, it symbolizes humility and renunciation;
- Is the national color of Holland;
- The peak of orange's popularity was the 60s of the last century, when fashion houses began to use it everywhere. Girls in bright orange outfits graced the pages of Vogue magazine.
People who prefer any shade of orange usually have an optimistic mindset and love movement and attention. Their easy-going nature charges everyone around them with positivity.
For long nails
With long nails you need to be careful - too bright shades look loaded, and too light shades are completely lost. As an option, use a fragmented design with orange polish - highlighting parts of the nail plate or some fingers. On long nails, combinations with basic colors are good - white and black, as well as dark green, gold and silver.
When choosing an additional design, pay attention to drawings, mica, foil, but try to avoid rhinestones and beads. Being overwhelmed and feeling chaotic is not what you want to achieve.
Red manicure ideas
Current shape and length for orange manicure
Orange manicure is universal - it suits any length and shape. With its help you can visually adjust the length.
Interesting: unlike other colors, you don't have to choose a tone for square or oval nails. Just choose the one you like and it will only decorate the shape of your nails.
For short nails
The design of short nails in orange has virtually no restrictions. The general rules of nail design apply here - the short plate should not be overloaded with decor, place it close to the edge. For example, heavy, large-diameter rhinestones will “steal” space and may cause the plate to break.
Nail experts recommend choosing muted, coated, nude shades of orange for short nails.
For long nails
Long nails “make friends” with any tone of the orange palette. A gradient of intense carrot color with a transition to a natural, transparent or milky shade looks especially impressive.
For square nails
Bright, catchy shades are popular for square nails. The form itself already speaks of the courage and originality of a woman’s personality. Most likely, this is a rather tough nature that prefers to take everything into its own hands.
Pay attention to the French design, in which the stripe will not be traditional white, but orange. Or lunar with a contrasting highlight of mustard, orange gold, copper.
For sharp nails
The sharp shape of nails either comes back into fashion or falls into oblivion. But for a certain category of women, she always remains loved. This form in tandem with a bright color or stylish design becomes simply a work of art.
Depending on the situation, you can choose an intense tone - orange-pink, coral, orange-peach, salmon or apricot. These are calm tones that allow you to “mute” the intensity of the shape of your nails and create an everyday manicure.
More intense shades are suitable for the holiday - the color of tangerine skin, pumpkin, burnt orange, cinnabar, rusty, mustard brown.
Advice: do not overload the manicure of sharp nails with design. It is appropriate in a situation where you need to get a festive manicure. But in this case, it is not recommended to wear a lot of jewelry or a bright outfit.
For short nails
On short nails you can be bolder and use all shades of orange. Combinations should be chosen based on the occasion for which the manicure is being done. For everyday wear and workdays, a combination with brown, light shades of green and dark tones of red is suitable. Don't forget that your nails can be subdued with a matte top coat.
As an additional design, make drawings in a plant theme - they are in fashion, or patterns in the minimalist style.

Bright orange
Juicy orange in nail design. The color itself is very active and will make your nails noticeable. To mute the design, the coating can be made matte. If you don’t want an intense look, make a muted design - highlight one or two nails on your hand with a bright color.
Be sure to combine a bright tone with a contrasting one. Bright orange is a must-have attribute for festive nail designs - for Halloween, New Year or a regular disco. In the latter case, it is permissible to make a neon mono design.
Carrot color
The natural shade of carrots is somewhat muted compared to the previous color. It is suitable for young girls and brave people who want brightness and color. Such a base will make friends with any design, and the manicure will sparkle with new colors.
Subtle orange
A blurred, muted shade of orange in nail design is preferred by those who want to do an everyday manicure. Nails in this color look well-groomed, especially if a matte finish is chosen. It’s very easy to turn velvet nails into a festive design; just highlight one or two with sparkles, rhinestones or rubbing.
Neon orange
The most intense shade in the palette. You should be careful with it, even if nail art masters place it at the very top of the list of relevance. Remember the main rule of nail design is relevance. That is, a mono manicure in neon color is acceptable at a disco, a themed party, and in a company where there are no strict dress code requirements. But for everyday life, it’s acceptable to single out one or two fingers.

The most fashionable and rich colors
Sunny manicure with bright colors was originally created, namely around two to three thousand years BC. e., was loved by the pharaohs and other noble people in Ancient Egypt. Indeed, for the inhabitants of this state, unity with nature and worship of the gods, especially the sun god Ra, was important. As you know, fashion is cyclical, and after many thousands of years this nail color returns. However, without any mystical overtones. In addition, trendsetters, as always, introduced a novelty and zest in the form of images of the fruits themselves or their pieces on the nail plate.
These slices look like real ones, and to create them you don’t even need to have an artistic education and many years of experience in creating nail masterpieces. It is enough to have enthusiasm, a love of beauty, convenient tools and a bit of drawing skill. And even if you don’t succeed the first time, several training sessions will help you achieve the desired effect. The main thing is to study various sources with tips for nail design and get better at it.
Original design
There are many design options using citrus fruits. Here you can use both fruit slices and an image of the whole fruit. In addition, cross-sectional drawings of fruits are popular. The main thing is to decide what the fruit will be. The composition itself may also be different. It is possible to place a kiwi in the corner of the nail plate, or you can make a slice of lemon from the lunula. For example, in the same Ancient Greece, when creating a manicure, lunulae were not painted over at all, as they considered this a sacred sign of belonging to the Moon. Actually, this is where such an interesting name came from for this part of the nail surface.
To apply a lime pattern, you can use shiny sparkles, which will be relevant at some summer party.
Some nail service lovers manage to paint entire paintings on their nails, still lifes in this case, with detailed elaboration of various details, such as veins on leaves, dew on blades of grass and fruit. Such work will require more painstaking work and diligence.
Hand painted
Hand painting is an option for the patient. It will take a lot of time to train and create a drawing if you are just starting your experiments with nail art.
Start with simple drawing options: draw a whole orange (just draw an orange circle and add a branch) or draw large slices.
Stickers
Stickers will allow you to create nail art with one movement of your hand. Depending on your wishes, you can choose stickers that completely cover the surface of the nail, or ones that can beautifully complement the main design.
Stamping of finished patterns
The stamping technique is another option for those who want to try a complex design, but are not ready to spend a lot of time on a manicure. It will be enough to transfer the pattern from a special palette onto the nail using an applicator.
