Airbrushing on nails - a modern trend in manicure


What is airbrush

Airbrushing on nails is a relatively new direction of artistic painting, the design is transferred to the nail plate with 100% accuracy, the transitions between a light shade of varnish and a dark one are smooth and clear.

In this direction, some masters create masterpieces comparable to paintings by famous artists. Others depict a whole story on their nails, and some can transport the starry sky in all its deep beauty. Artistic painting is done with varnishes or paints, special stencils for airbrushing on nails are used to create beautiful designs. Perfection of lines and transitions is achieved thanks to a special airbrush device.

Advantages of airbrushing

The art of airbrushing is more than a century old, but it began to be used for applying designs to the surface of nails relatively recently. This technique is becoming increasingly popular because it has a number of undoubted advantages:

  • Airbrush gives the artist more freedom in creativity - it can be used to create three-dimensional images, which is impossible with conventional painting.
  • It significantly speeds up the drawing process.
  • Paints dry quickly, so even painting complex images will not take much time.
  • It is inexpensive - the necessary paints are cheaper than most analogues, and the necessary equipment, if used correctly, will last a long time and will pay for itself many times over.
  • With the help of an airbrush, it is much easier for beginners to create many of the most popular designs, for example, French, gradient, ombre, openwork patterns.

Airbrush and its types

To create a stylish airbrush nail design, in addition to paints and varnishes, you need a special device - an airbrush. You need to buy a device for airbrush on nails carefully; not only achieving the desired results, but also the quality of the applied patterns depends on the right choice. There are a large number of different types of instruments, represented by two standards of action: simple and double.

A simple airbrush makes it possible to control only the flow of coloring matter and is convenient when working with ready-made stickers. The double-acting device makes it possible to control the amount of liquid and air supplied. Allows you to work not only with stencils, but also to make drawings yourself, changing the thickness of the line and its clarity.

You can choose a cheaper option for learning paint application skills or buy an expensive and high-quality Japanese tool for constant use. It is best to purchase an airbrush complete with a compressor, so as not to have to select a separate device later. The price category for the sets varies from 3,260 rubles to 30 thousand rubles. You can select a separate compressor, but you need to pay attention to the sound during operation, as well as the amount of air that can pass through the compressor per second.

Device for airbrush on nails

The main distinguishing features of expensive and cheap tools intended for painting nails are:

  • company manufacturer;
  • the principle of spraying materials, can be external and internal;
  • nozzle diameter;
  • capacity;
  • tank type;
  • needle stroke;
  • ability to change pressure;
  • precision paint spraying.

The companies Jas, Sparmax and Iwata have proven themselves well. Jas are Chinese companies that produce relatively inexpensive equipment, intended in most cases for beginners and infrequent use. Sparmax is a manufacturer of instruments in Taiwan, the instruments are of an average price and quality level, suitable for constant use. Iwata is a Japanese company that supplies the world market with the highest quality equipment; it is used by professional craftsmen; with devices from this company you can be confident in the durability of the airbrush and the quality of the work it performs.

When choosing an airbrush, you should understand that when working with cheap models, spraying the coloring material can be inaccurate and wasteful, parts of the tool can often fail, and the needle stroke is not adjustable, making it difficult to draw lines without stencils.

Working with an airbrush

Each equipment, for long and good service, needs special care and proper operation. To extend the life of the device you need to follow a few simple rules:

  1. Before you start painting, you need to fill a special tank with regular water, then press the start button and do a few sprays.
  2. Thanks to water, the remaining paint will be removed; only a few milliliters of liquid are needed.
  3. After checking, pour out the paint and wipe the bowl with a towel.
  4. Place a few drops of paint into the tank and close it with a lid.
  5. Point the tool at a sheet of paper and press the trigger several times.
  6. To adjust the paint supply, to increase the color density, you need to pull the release lever towards you.
  7. Point the device at the nail without stopping the device to create a pattern.
  8. In order to create thin lines, the airbrush needs to be brought as close to the nail plate as possible.
  9. Before each change of paint, the tank must be washed with a special solution.

What is an airbrush for nails

This is a tool with which paint is applied to the nail surface without contact - it is sprayed under compressed air pressure.

The airbrush (more precisely, the airbrush kit) consists of three main modules:

  1. The airbrush itself is a tool that is a cross between a pistol and a fountain pen. A compact paint tank is attached to it on top or on the side.
  2. A compressor unit that supplies compressed air (the tool can be sold without a compressor, in which case the latter will have to be purchased separately);
  3. Hose for connecting the compressor to the sprayer.

The nail airbrush is sold unassembled, but it is not difficult to assemble, and instructions are included with each one. The assembly procedure is simple: you just need to connect the spray gun to the compressor using a hose and replace the paint tank (if it is detached).

There are two main types of airbrushes: simple or single action and the most “advanced” and more often used - double action.

Single action

In such an airbrush, the “trigger” only turns on the paint supply, but does not affect the air pressure. It is adjusted elsewhere, usually with a screw. If you use this type of sprayer, then when replacing paint you need to completely unscrew and then tighten the screw again.

With proper adjustment, it is not difficult to achieve the optimal dye to air ratio. As a result, immediately after applying the design, the coating becomes dry. This airbrush is ideal in cases where the design is drawn using stencils or a smooth transition of colors (gradient) is made.

Double action

In airbrushes of this type, working with the trigger (lever) is a little more difficult - it has two functions.

First, you pull the trigger and air begins to flow into the nozzle. In the second movement, you do not press, but pull the trigger back, as a result, paint begins to flow into the sprayer. The further you pull the lever, the larger quantities it flows. In order to change the paint, you need to pull the trigger all the way and the unnecessary residue will pour out.

Such airbrushes are used more often and not only in beauty salons. True, without sufficient experience, working with them is not so easy. But the result will certainly be worth the time spent on training and training. Once you get the hang of it, you will get clear images with precise rendering of all the details.

Typically, the device comes with cleaning brushes and pipettes. More expensive kits add solvents and device care products.

The price range for airbrushes is very wide. So, there are devices whose cost starts from 600 rubles. (they come without a compressor), and there are those that cost about $500. Inexpensive tools nowadays are often ordered from Aliexpress (they are ideal for beginner craftswomen), while professional ones are usually purchased for beauty salons.

Tools for artistic painting

In order to start creating an airbrush manicure, you will need to have certain materials on hand. List of required tools:

  • paint sprayer;
  • compressor for air supply;
  • special paints;
  • base varnish;
  • tassels;
  • plastic tips, for training;
  • rubber gloves, preferably thin ones;
  • tweezers;
  • sample drawings;
  • a mat on which you can cut out an image;

In addition to the airbrush itself, you will need (or may need) the following materials and tools for work:

  • airbrush paints;
  • pipette for collecting dye;
  • stencils;
  • stickers;
  • rhinestones;
  • tweezers;
  • buff;
  • acid-free primer;
  • sticky layer remover;

Step by step creation

Airbrushing on nails is the dream of most girls. However, there is sometimes not enough time to do such a manicure in salons, so the fair sex strives to create masterpieces at home. Having purchased all the necessary materials, it is very easy to learn how to paint with an airbrush.

Creating a simple design with a stencil:

  • Wash the hands;
  • Clean the nail plate from the previous varnish;
  • Prepare your nails by doing a manicure;
  • Sand;
  • Degrease;
  • Apply a colorless base;
  • Select the color of the varnish;
  • Apply the main shade;
  • If it is gel polish, dry it under a UV lamp;
  • Select a picture;
  • Apply the stencil using tweezers;
  • Choose a paint shade;
  • Pour a few drops into the tank;
  • Point the device to the side;
  • Press the power button;
  • View the quality of paint spraying;
  • Move the device to the nail;
  • Moving the nozzle further or closer, spray paint, changing the contrast;
  • Turn off the device;
  • Using tweezers, remove the stencil;
  • The lines can be corrected with a thin brush;
  • Cover the finished drawing with a fixative;
  • Place your nails under a lamp to dry.

To create a more intricate and complex design, you can use several stencils and complement the design with glitter or rhinestones. If special stickers are not available, any lace fabric or mesh will do. You can do a manicure using only smooth transitions of different colors.

Expert advice

  • If during spraying you do not see a stream of paint coming out of the airbrush nozzle, then everything is in order - the proportions of paint and air are correct! And if a stream is visible, the mixture is too wet.
  • It is best to start by practicing on tips, a white sheet of paper - gradually working out the application technique, only then move directly to nail design.
  • When painting, try to use the lightest colors first. This way you can add the next darker color faster with less cleaner.
  • Before use, paint bottles must be shaken to avoid sediment. This especially applies to compositions such as “metallic”, “gold”, “silver”, etc.

If one color smoothly transitions into another and there is no visible border between them (that is, you already have a gradient!),

then it’s time for you to move on to the next, more complex stage - creating drawings using overlays and stencils.

Airbrush paints on nails

When working with an airbrush, it is best to use special paints. Airbrush paints on nails are sold both individually and in sets. There are several types of paints:

  1. Basic - applied to the substrate, creating the main background of the nail plate, used in ombre, for working with fabrics and prepared designs.
  2. Neon is a paint based on a phosphorescent pigment that charges under the influence of sunlight and begins to glow when it gets dark. For color stability, before applying paint, it is recommended to add a few drops of the base palette.
  3. Nude (see examples of photos of nude manicure) are the paints closest to natural colors. In the palette you can find rich colors of lime, mint or warm tones of cocoa and marsala. They are opaque, thanks to this it is possible to apply the shade to any other layer of paint.
  4. Mother-of-pearl – give the manicure a special look, thanks to the shimmer in the sun’s rays, the nails seem covered with fairy pollen.

When choosing paint, you should look at the grains and thickness of the substance. Good paint should be as thick as low-fat kefir, without grains or other unknown particles.

Low-quality paint liquids sometimes contain large particles that can clog the nozzle, after which the airbrush may spit or break.

The main components of the dye for airbrushing are: adhesive additives and water-based acrylic paints. Thanks to the additives, adhesion to the surface of the nail plate is enhanced, and a beautiful airbrush manicure lasts longer on the nails.

The price category of one bottle of paint varies from 100 to 200 rubles. The price depends on the manufacturer and the type of paint itself. In addition to special paints, you can use gel polishes, but before use they should be diluted with a special solution, bringing them to a more liquid state.

Step-by-step procedure

At first glance, airbrushing seems to be an incredibly simple procedure that even a beginner can handle, but the assumption is wrong. The result depends entirely on the professional skills and abilities of the master. The “Airbrush” technique consists of several stages:

  • a background is created - paint is sprayed onto the surface of the nail plates;
  • a drawing is applied - using a stencil or template and an airbrush, a picture is “born”;
  • correction is carried out - to improve the image, the master uses a brush so that the picture sparkles with new colors, consisting of picturesque, expressive and colorful notes;
  • accents are placed - to ensure the perfection of the canvas, the master decorates the manicure with sparkles, rhinestones, stones, threads, and other memorable accessories;
  • a fixing compound is applied.

The painted picture on your nails is ready to see the world and captivate those around you with its extraordinary beauty!

Stencils

Blanks for creating original ornaments and beautiful designs. Stencils help create a masterpiece, even for those people who have absolutely no brush skills and do not know how to draw. Any stencils are suitable for airbrushing, both single-use and special templates for repeated application. Beginners often use disposable paper blanks; for professional use, reusable stencils are purchased.

Stencils are divided into five main groups:

  • Vinyl – adhesive-based blanks that fit tightly to the nail plate, disposable.
  • Paper - disposable stencils, made specifically for French, lunar design and other flights of fancy.
  • Film - specially created for airbrushing, the film is translucent, allowing you to see the basic tone of the nail plate. The adhesive side does not damage the tone, and thanks to the water base, which does not dry out over time, the stencil can be reused many times.
  • Metal - reusable templates made of thin metal that bends easily and is washed after design.
  • Plastic and metal plates - used for stamping, do not have an adhesive base. Not suitable for airbrushing.

Airbrush on nails with stencils

Airbrushing templates are often sold in small sheets containing six to 12 designs. Sometimes there are large sets of stencils in which up to 50 pieces of different kinds of images are available. The cost of stencils, on separate sheets, ranges from 60 to 100 rubles. The price threshold for sets can reach up to 1,500 rubles.

Where does a manicure begin?

Any manicure begins with the shape of the nail file. Some people like squares, others like almonds. Every fashionista eventually comes to her favorite shape. Any master will tell you that the choice of sawdust depends on many factors. And the main one is the shape and size of the nail bed. Everyone’s hands are different, and no matter how much you want to make a square on a short and wide nail plate, your fingers will turn into sapper blades. A competent master will always suggest the best option for filing your nails.

form

It is equally important to follow trends in nail art. For example, a stiletto sawdust and a long nail are bad manners in the fashion world. They have long evoked only one association: “chicken foot”, “eagle’s claws” or “old witch”, and hopelessly smack of “an unpaved collective farm”. Of course, if this is the New Year’s look, then it’s okay, but such nails are no longer suitable for everyday wear. Short and medium lengths are trending now. Sawdust: square, oval, squaw-oval, almond.

There are no special restrictions on colors, and in relation to design too. The only thing that stylists recommend is moderation in the use of stones, rhinestones and modeling.

Art Design Kits

Creating an airbrush manicure is a rather labor-intensive process, and selecting tools for a novice master can be quite tiring. For beginners, it is best to buy a special kit for airbrushing nails. There are several types of kits:

  • Basic - which includes an airbrush device, a compressor and a hose. The average cost of a set is 3,500 rubles.
  • Improved - this set may contain additional jars and stands for them, an airbrush cleaner, and a special pipette. The price category ranges from 4900 to 6500 rubles.
  • Complete set - this set contains not only basic tools, but also paints and stencils. The cost of such a set is about 15 thousand rubles.

By purchasing sets you can save not only time on shopping trips, but also money. The cost of the set is much cheaper than buying the materials separately.

Technique for performing New Year's manicure with gel polish

To apply gel polish, prepare a set of devices:

  • LED lamp or UV lamp for curing the varnish.
  • The base coat is an undercoat for better adhesion.
  • Top coat is the composition that is applied last.
  • Gel polish of the desired color.
  • Degreaser is a product for cleaning and treating the nail plate.
  • Tools for nail processing.
  • Decorative elements - apply decor if necessary.

Stages of working with gel polish:

  1. Nail preparation includes removing the previous coating, processing the plate with tools to give the desired shape, treating with a buffer, and degreasing. The technique is visible in the photograph.
  2. Applying a base layer followed by curing with a lamp.
  3. Applying the base coat of gel polish. The brush is led from the base of the nail to the cuticle. The first stroke is in the center, the other two are on the sides from the beginning of the plate to the edge.
  4. Then the “sealing” operation along the end of the nail. Drying with a UV lamp. If necessary, repeat the process with a different or the same color.
  5. Top coating. The technique is the same as for the main layer. Drying with a lamp.
  6. Degreasing with the composition, alcohol, ZhDSL without acetone. The sticky layer is removed.
  7. Treatment of cuticles and finger skin with cream.
