11. Combine Matte and Gloss for Subtle Nail Art
Making modest and professional nail art doesn’t always call for intricate designs or difficult processes. Perfect for both business environments and special events, the blend of matte and glossy finishes provides a subdued but attractive method of nail painting. Playing with texture instead of colour, this method produces designs that expose themselves through the interaction of light on various surfaces. Start with a base colour of your choosing and equally apply it across all of your nails to carry out this effect. Applying either a matte top coat or a glossy top coat in targeted places will help you establish patterns once dried. Popular designs call for geometric patterns, stripes, or negative space designs whereby one finish softly contrasts with the other. This method is beautiful because of its adaptability; it may be as basic as a matte nail with a glossy tip or as complicated designs only seen when they catch the light at particular angles.
