What should nails look like in 2016?
What colors and shades of varnishes and gel polishes will be fashionable? What nail shape to choose and how to choose the right nail design. Fashion for the spring-summer 2016 season teaches us love, patience, understanding, care and kindness, a return to nature and attention to the universe of the human soul. Everyone who has been waiting for so long for the return of the era of flower children and the triumph of abstractionists and impressionists - your finest hour has come!
Nail fashion, as a natural continuation of the catwalk, advises in 2016 to take a breath, relax in the eternal race against time, and return to the natural, the natural, the living. It is not for nothing that many experts, observing the models of the latest Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, noted the restraint of manicure images, or even a complete departure from creative designs. But you shouldn’t rush to conclusions and proclaim that manicure is dead.
After all, developing the message contained in the message of the executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, Leatrice Eisman, in the new year, fashion designers, stylists, and nail industry masters advise us to awaken our creativity, turn to the colors of natural tenderness, harmony, love, embody them in the most feminine and sophisticated images. Nail fashion, like thought fashion, will have to transport the woman who embodies it to “...a happy, sunny place where we can freely express ourselves.” So what colors, images, textures should we decorate our fingers in the coming 2016? What designs will be at the peak of fashion, what colors will we see in solo and multi-color looks? The Pantone Color Institute gives the answer in its annual message to the creative world in its traditional color forecast.
Fashionable nails, like their owner, should dress in confidence and warmth, mix the sunny shades of nature with urban colors, create on the nails a tiny piece of a happy sunny paradise in which every person feels free and can express their true essence. And we have to implement this idea with the help of the Top 10 colors of the spring-summer 2016 season, namely: bright yellow Buttercup, fiery red Fiesta, bright green Green flash, lilac-ash Lilac gray, peach Peach echo, shade of coffee with Iced coffee milk, soft turquoise Limpet shell, electric blue Snorkel blue and the leading flagship colors of 2016 - Rose quartz and lilac-blue Serenity.
At first glance, the selection of colors may seem chaotic, but nail images in these tones tell their own story, the roots of which go back to the art of Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Esther Stewart and Sam Falls, and should become an expression of the harmonious unity of nature and world globalization. The main trends in the development of the manicure movement in the new year will finally give fashionistas that balance of bright and bold, calm and gentle, which connoisseurs have been dreaming of for so long. What do the trendy images of spring-summer 2016 say?
BUTTERCUP
A manicure in the bright yellow shade Buttercup
(Buttercup) combines rich yellow and a drop of mustard note.
Such an image on the nails expresses self-confidence, powerful inner strength, awareness of one’s femininity and attractiveness. In polishes, Buttercup combines perfectly with the rest of the leading colors of the year, giving the manicure a mood of positive brightness, expressiveness, warmth and strength. By choosing Buttercup as the main manicure shade, the girl seems to be declaring herself strong, brave, regal and certainly happy. Stylists advise trying Buttercup in a matte version, slightly muffling the sun's splashes into calmer, more restrained, cozy looks, and combining the shade with Serenity
,
Lilac Gray
and
Snorkel Blue.

FIESTA
The polishes performed by the fiery red Fiesta
are nails with a festive mood, sparkling happiness, seething youth through the outer mask of calm.
The bright red shade contains a subtle yellow undertone, due to which the overall mood of the manicure is not so much flashy and defiant, but rather one that proclaims a thirst for life, positivity, and faith in one’s own strength. Fiesta, as a truly impressionistic color, can afford everything - the radiance of scarlet metal, the cozy tenderness of a fur manicure, and glitter flashes. Stylists advise combining Fiesta with Green Flash

LILAC GRAY
Manicure in lilac-ash color Lilac gray

Cheerful and funny New Year's manicure with snowflakes, painting and drawings
When choosing bright makeup and an equally elegant dress, you should also take care of a fashionable New Year's manicure . 2016 – Year of the Red Fire Monkey. Therefore, it is absolutely appropriate to use bright and even acidic shades in a New Year’s manicure . A clear favorite will be the golden and orange shade. Astrologers also recommend diluting colors with darker shades: purple, green, blue and black.
To create a mischievous look, you can choose New Year's manicure photo ideas, which you can view on the Internet. These can be various thematic drawings. For example: New Year's manicure with snowflakes is always popular ( see photo below), Christmas trees, fawns, snowmen, New Year's hats, candy canes and, of course, the symbol of the year itself - funny and amusing monkeys - are also popular.
ICED COFFEE
The theme of relaxation and bliss will be embodied in Iced coffee
. This color is created for summer manicures that convey the mood of lazy flirtation, languor, sultry sensuality, but without a boiling volcano of passions. As the color of the year, the shade of coffee with milk is declared as a basic one, which means it is allowed both for a classic and strict presentation (with a more pronounced silvery-icy glow), and for bolder and juicier mixes of colors (with an enhanced warm brown tone of varnish and gel polish ). Brown tones are rare guests in summer polishes, but due to its expressiveness and softness, pleasant restraint and neutral beauty, Iced coffee will be appropriate both as an accent color and as a color for painting, vinyl design or glitter stretching. In the company of Iced coffee, any manicure will acquire a bit of sophistication, so designers do not limit the variations of combinations, emphasizing only that any manicure with Iced coffee should not stray far from naturalness, naturalness and maintain a sense of style.

LIMPET SHELL
Summer is an unconditional synonym for relaxing on the beach, and the expression of the whole range of vacation moods will be a manicure in the tones of mother-of-pearl turquoise - Limpet shell
. The playfulness of dolphins frolicking in the sea, the serenity of the Mediterranean sea surface, peace, a sense of kindness, ideality and the vastness and depth of the skies - all this is conveyed by a soft turquoise hue, which, unlike the Bay of Biscay (colors of autumn-winter 2015-2016), is presented for the spring palette -summer 2016 in a warmer sparkling sound. This color will naturally be most expressive against the background of tanned skin, but it will also not be alien to paler hands, emphasizing the grace of the fingers and the fragility of nature.
A manicure with Limpet shell should be light and not overloaded with details; pearls or their imitation will look organic, glitter illusions imitating sun glare on the crests of waves. Fingers dressed in this shade should express lightness and serenity, that very flying gait and contempt for life's worries. The main soft pearlescent tone of the color is complemented by a light ash-pearl haze, due to which one of the leading colors of summer will be successfully combined in a manicure with Peach Echo

- gray is the most fashionable color this fall, especially ash or pearl gray
- red - all shades are relevant

Advice: if you have any doubts about what tone to choose for your manicure this fall, then pay attention to nature - the sky, foliage, grass, water, flowers, berries will prompt the right decision.
Autumn 2016 brought several interesting new products to nail design, which can be seen in the photo. One of them is the trendy trend of painting all nails in different colors. The main thing is that the shades combine harmoniously with each other.
SNORKEL BLUE
In addition to Fiesta, another color with the mood of splashing energy of life will be electric blue Snorkel blue
.
A manicure in this color will reveal an energetic and active nature in you, one who loves excitement, risk and adventure. The meaning of the color refers to diving and the wonderful world of the deep sea, but it itself is not so simple and straightforward. This is a deep, hypnotic color, alluring and promising to reveal unknown secrets. In polishes with Snorkel blue, you should definitely give preference to the classic cream polish and complement it with a bright accent (multi-colored glitter or a slider design on the theme of sea creatures). It will complement the evening image especially effectively, allegorically being the personification of the evening summer sky, the pristine purity and beauty of the sea, the energy and inner strength of modern man. Snorkel blue will create a beautiful tandem or colorful picture - an image from the tropical jungle with Peach Echo

Unusual New Year's manicure in Feng Shui style
New Year's French manicure can be done using bright or dark shades. It is especially important this season to decorate two fingers – the ring and middle fingers on the right hand. All other fingers can be designed in the classic version. New Year's manicure with gel polish using this technique looks very beautiful and unusual, and besides, by highlighting the middle and ring fingers, you consciously attract only positive emotions, joy and unbridled fun.
ROSE QUARTZ
The main mood of the year is created by rose quartz and
lilac-blue
Serenity
. Quartz is the tenderness of spring itself, the melody of colorful, bright, warm spring days, conveying fresh colors and moods of awakening nature. It conveys its mission of peace, sunny warmth, and the tremulous tenderness of blooming apricot in combination with Peach Echo, Lilac Gray and Serenity due to its pronounced milky undertone. Manicures in this color are the most universal - they will look natural on the fingers of both brunettes and blondes. Stylists recommend letting it play alone and not use it as a canvas for bright accessories or designs, since the main purpose of color is to create a mood of peace, tranquility, and remind that happiness sometimes lies in simple things.

TOP 15 POPULAR TYPES OF MANICURE FOR THE SPRING-SUMMER SEASON 2016.
How to most effectively present fashionable colors and stay on trend in any created image?
Stylists and nail gurus recommend such off-season popular prints as imitation patterns of plaids, skirts, shirts (large check – like on Zak Pozen models). The brutality and aggressiveness of this print will be smoothed out by its implementation in pastel colors (Ice Coffee, Peach Echo, Rose quartz) or the style tandem of Fiesta with Rose quartz or Snorkel blue with Serenity. The hit of the spring-summer season will remain stripes - a combination of thick and thin, horizontal and vertical lines. Stripes will look most organic in a monochromatic look - for example, in a brighter Buttercup and the same color, but heavily diluted with milk. An explosion of imagination is also allowed - for example, a combination of Green flash, Snorkel blue and Fiesta (similar to models from Ralph Lauren and Novis).
Spring and summer are unthinkable without floral prints. Stylists advise us to choose a pastel shade and apply a slider, stamping on it, or create a design using a vinyl stencil so that daisies, water lilies, hyacinths, and buttercups bloom on the nails (as in the Oscar de la Renta collections). Exotic flora will be especially popular (Cuba and Morocco are on trend this year) - flowers combined with abstract patterns.
We are advised to complement manicures with simple basic colors like Iced coffee, Lilac gray and Green flash with the breath of the impressionists. Namely, a new interpretation of animal prints with fantastic elements, such as in the collection of fashion designer Martin Margler. The leading colors of 2016 combine all the colors of the world, and therefore a creative solution would be to create a manicure with astronomical prints (images of models Karen Walker and Giamba) and geographical motifs (as in the collections of Gucci and Dolce&Gabbana). You can draw planets, comets, stars, galaxies on your fingers, or attract attention with a beautiful image of famous architectural monuments.
Strokes, stained glass, mosaics - all this will also be at the peak of popularity in manicure in the hot summer. A patchwork of fields from a bird's eye view or watercolor chaotic strokes of a novice artist (as in looks from Christopher Kane, Chanel and Peter Pilotto) can be realized using tandems Limpet shell and Lilac gray or a quartet of Fiesta, Green flash, Buttercup and Snorkel blue.
For all the colors of the year (if you take pastel shades and bright colors but in a whitened form), a simple but very elegant design will be a gradient. Designers like Marchesa and Rebecca Minkoff are showing us how beautiful a sunset look can be on nails (like Buttercup, Lilac grey, Peach Echo and Serenity). If you want something less pretty, we hasten to please you - in the spring-summer 2016 season, gothic manicure will be popular, but in a smoother and muted version (for example, whitened Lilac gray as a background and Fiesta as bloody drops like the Wes models Gordon).
In 2016, the classic colored jacket gets a new interpretation, which can be done with any varnish from the colors of the year’s palette. Now colored French is entering into synthesis with another equally popular technique - “negative space”, giving rise to interesting and colorful images (like designers Jin Soon Choi and Alexander Wang).
Another popular trend for the spring-summer 2016 season is a variation on the theme of an updated moon manicure. Now this design is called a precious manicure (represented in particular by Naeem Khan models), and the execution is still simple - the canvas is a light glossy varnish, and the hole is made using silver glitter.
Fashionable nails 2016 are, of course, a textured manicure. Both in a simple design (reproducing sugar nails with sparkles, shimmer, micro-dust), and in a more creative one - splashes of paint (like Nicole Miller models), imitation gold leaf (images of Nicholas K models), textured metallic (demonstrated on the catwalk by the fashion designer Badgley Mischka). With the bright colors of spring and summer, you can’t help but try a bright neon manicure, both in the pure radiance of color and with interesting accents - small gold rhinestones, manicure ribbons, slices, etc.
All the pastel colors of the palette of the year, close to the skin tone, will help to reproduce a laconic and elegant nude manicure, also known as Chic Nudes. It is this “manicure without manicure” that mimics the natural color of the skin that will be good both at the banquet and at the world. Its stylists advise wearing it solo, not complementing it with any other design, but choosing a more accent-rich look (clothing and accessories).
And finally, the year of naturalness, naturalness and naturalness cannot be imagined without a marble manicure that is simple in execution, but elegantly looking on the nails. These seemingly deliberately irregular and chaotic strokes in both glossy and matte finishes (usually in a paired combination of colors close to natural stone) were seen on models Jay Godfrey, Tracy Reese and Alexander Wang.
As you can see, nail trends are quite democratic, allowing you to indulge in NUD and allow yourself almost unlimited creative impulses. Manicure 2016 will allow you to relax (and be lazy) and realize long-cherished fantasies. Embody your own version of earthly paradise on your nails, and let any of your manicures bring you creative satisfaction!
Fashionable manicure with tape
Creating designs using adhesive paper or tape occurs like this: the nail plate is completely covered with a layer of base varnish. After drying it, a stencil of the design is cut out of the adhesive material and carefully glued to the nail. A varnish of a different color is applied over the stencil. As soon as the last layer has dried, the tape or paper is removed. RECOMMENDATION! For this method, it is better to use quick-drying types of varnish!
