Drawing with gel polish
The most relevant thing is painting nails with varnish. To perform this technique correctly, you must take this process seriously and be patient.
Drawing roses can be done in many different ways. To create an image, it is recommended to start it with a circle shape, and then give it the outline of the petals. You can use monograms that will make up the flower.
To obtain a neat pattern, the edges of the petals should be outlined starting from the middle.
For those who do not have sufficient skills, you can use a ready-made template. An ideal option for beginners would also be to use transfer stickers.
To draw a design with gel polish, you should first prepare your nails for its application. First of all, you should degrease your nails, then cover them with a base and dry them in a lamp. Then apply the main gel polish and dry.
To create a manicure with roses, you should take the thinnest brush. The drawing scheme is as follows:
- on one nail you need to put a dot and smoothly turn it into a comma;

- To make the rose more voluminous, you need to dry each element of the design one by one.
All stages of work must be done very carefully so as not to spoil the quality of the drawing.
Drawing on wet gel polish
In this case, the image must be applied to an undried layer. This technique is easy to perform. This method is carried out using the following technology: the dried base is coated with varnish, then the design itself is applied to the wet layer.

Chinese painting
To paint several flowers, Chinese painting is often used. Drawing using this technique goes like this:
- the main color is applied to the brush, then the lower tier of petals is painted;
- then the next tier is created from smaller petals;
- the middle of the flower is located closer to the upper tier;
- after this, rounded strokes are made, which give the image splendor. The painting will look trendy when combined with pastel colors.
If desired, you can add leaves. To do this, apply green color to one edge of the brush and yellow to the other. You need to draw with wavy lines, alternately forming each half of the sheet. You can depict it with one stroke and additionally outline the outline.
Stained glass technique
One of the ways to create a beautiful manicure with roses is also the stained glass technique. It helps achieve a sophisticated design. It is best to use dark stained glass, which will emphasize the elegance of the image.
To implement this technique, apply a base, then a base coat. Next you should use a transparent gel to create a stained glass window. You need to draw geometric shapes and small roses among them, and then fill them with the selected colors. You can use various patterns, transfer foil, and rhinestones in this design.
The drawing is varnished and dried. The use of a black base will emphasize the individuality of the design.

Nuances when working with a stencil:
- A stencil is a template design cut out on a plate. One side of the plate is attached to the nail
- Stencils can be adhesive-based or metal plates. The techniques for working with them are different.
- You need to carefully ensure that the paint gets exactly into the stencil design and does not smear on the surface.
- Stencil roses turn out identical and even. On the one hand, this is just a godsend for beginning craftsmen. On the other hand, roses turn out to be formulaic, not expressive and do not have their own style
