4 materials for straight lines

It could appear that drawing lines on nails is tough and that only talented people can accomplish it. Actually, there are four supplies that will enable you to add stripes without detracting from the overall composition.

Manicure tape

A thin strip with an adhesive base is manicure tape. It is easy to use; just lay it over a background that has dried and apply a top coat.

What are tapes?

silver;
gold;
colored.

The tape’s thickness varies depending on the manufacturer, but it typically doesn’t go over 1-2 mm. composed of silicone, foil, or paper that resists moisture.

Manufacturers offer curved and rounded stripes in addition to straight ones, which can be used to incorporate stripes into the overall composition or placed along the perimeter.

style – "Flexible gold tape" made of silicone. Available in gold and silver. The set includes stripes of different widths – from 0.5 to 2 mm;

Stamping

You will need to purchase a plate with a pattern, a stamp, and special paint in order to practice the stamping technique. You will achieve a clean, error-free design on your nails if you adhere to the guidelines for using a stamp and stencil plate.

The only challenge here is locating a plate that fits the design and has high-quality embossing. Born Pretty, ONIQ, and Mo You London are the top producers of stamping goods. Their goods are robust and of excellent quality.

Spider web gel

Spider web gel is a viscous paint that is thick. You just need to stretch a tiny bit of the paint with an orange stick or dots over the nail plate to adorn your nails with thin paint stripes.

A dried colored background is painted over, and then a top coat is applied.

Spider web gel comes in black, white, or metallic colors that resemble gold or silver.

Stencils for French manicure

They can be used to create stripes on nail plates in addition to the French manicure. All that is left to do is adhere the strip to the intended location before applying the color.

Only after the gel polish has dried under a lamp are the stencils removed. Adhesive strips, for instance, are available under the Kiss number BK132. Eighty identically sized, slightly curved stripes make up the set.

Gel polish or paints applied with a brush can be used to create stripes. A little life tip: use a thin brush to mark the area where the stripes will go in order to make them even. Simply place tiny dots, then join them.

For long nails

You can use stripes on long nails in any direction—along, across, diagonally, or simply at random.

There are no color restrictions when using neutral stripes like white, black, or gold because they blend well with any background substrate. Additionally, it is preferable to have a neutral background if the stripes are colored.

Stripes offer a variety of creative options, from bold and striking to subtle and elegant, so you can add a fun and stylish twist to your manicure. Stripes may improve your nails and go well with any ensemble, whether you go for traditional black and white lines or try out some vibrant patterns.

For short nails

Generally speaking, stripes can be applied in any direction on short nails. However, be aware that longitudinal lines make the nail appear longer and thinner, while lines across the nail plate visually shorten the nail. Your creativity and the occasion for which the manicure is intended will determine the color combinations.

Matte

In 2020, matte manicures will still be fashionable. In addition to its ability to mute color, matte top works well on nails of any length or shape.

With stripes on your nails, you can add intensity to the manicure, fill in gaps, and diversify a monochromatic design. What do you think of the line-based design? Please share in the comments how you draw stripes: do you use a brush, stencils, or a different method?
