Now the trend is mint manicure and on short nails it will look very fresh and elegant. But if you prefer to wear long nails, then it is appropriate to decorate a monochromatic mint coating with a complex pattern using water stickers or stamping designs.
But a mint-colored manicure does not have to be monochromatic. For example, a colored jacket is now in trend and, in combination with the main aqua coating, a shiny free edge, highlighted with gold or silver lacquer, looks spectacular. If you use a delicate shade of mint to highlight the free edge, then the main color of the jacket can be made in pastel colors such as blue, lavender, beige, yellow, peach, lilac or pale pink. You can add a few rhinestones to the main background of a mint jacket, but for a manicure with a shiny decor, choose muted pastel shades. You can do French manicure with drawings, but if you prefer to wear short nails, then choose openwork, light and airy prints of a small size that look interesting on a menthol-light green (pang) or on a mint pink background of the coating.
If you want to wear a mint manicure for at least a few weeks, the decorative coating must be durable and keep the glossy shine of the nails for a long time. It is ideal to use color gel polish for home nail design, which becomes a very durable coating after curing in a UV lamp. It is not necessary to buy mint color gel polish, since by mixing blue, blue, yellow and white colors of the palette in different proportions, you can quickly find the right shade. Mint shades such as pistachio, menthol in combination with soft blue, cool shades of green, light shades of turquoise in combination with sea foam are ideal for fashionable nail design.

Manicure in bright juicy colors is now at the height of fashion. The mint shade of nail polish is especially relevant in the coming summer season. It looks very bright and fresh in combination with light summer clothes, but in the cold season it is in harmony with dark clothes.
Peculiarities
Like other similar light shades, mint varnish has several characteristics. Most importantly, it is quite capricious in application and can give streaks and bald spots when layering. This is especially true for pastel shades without glitter and shimmer. Therefore, choose formulations that have a wide, comfortable brush or gel formula. The latter seem to self-align on the nails and give an even coating.
Also, do not apply more than two coats of mint varnish. It won't get rid of the streaks on your nail, but it will make the manicure heavier and shorten the time you wear it.
Which varnish to choose
Almost any palette of decorative varnishes includes trendy mint shades. Among the inexpensive, but high-quality compositions, one can distinguish “Pastel-mint” from Rimmel from the 60 seconds series. It dries quickly and strengthens nails thanks to argan and olive oils. A wide brush allows you to apply a whimsical color without streaks and bald spots. Similar in quality and varnish from the Colorama series from Maybelline, shade "Fresh Mint".
Another inexpensive option that allows you to make a mint-colored manicure is the French Riviera tone in the L'oreal line. This varnish will last up to 10 days without chipping or loss of shine. A more durable coating will give nailLOOK from the likeGel series. Mint shade Mint to be does not require drying in a lamp, but has all the properties of gel polishes.
Among the more expensive products costing over 500 rubles, one cannot fail to note O.P.I varnishes. This is a very high quality home use coating with natural silk and amino acids. Look for the shade This Cost Me a Mint.
Another world giant in the field of decorative varnishes, Sally Hansen, also has a delicate shade of mint with a light shimmer. This shade 240 will create the perfect mint manicure. Gel formula Miracle Gel allows manicure to last up to 14 days and does not require drying in a lamp.
Deborah Lippmann varnishes are absolutely safe - they do not contain toluene and formaldehyde. Flowers In Her Hair is very delicate, fresh and feminine.
A color scheme
Of course, you can make a mint manicure using only one color of varnish, however, various designs that allow you to diversify it do not lose popularity. Often these designs are based on a combination of different colors and shades. Sometimes different colors are applied to different nails (usually all nails are painted with the main color, and only nameless ones are covered with a contrasting color) or they combine companion shades. In this case, techniques are used in the style of a French or moon manicure, a gradient and stamping, and it is also possible to use various stencils that will help add zest to a mint manicure.
Photos of fashion bloggers in the field of Nail Art suggest that the following shades are best combined with mint polish:
- light pink;
- White;
- chocolate brown;
- deep blue;
- rich black;
- silver.
French
A classic jacket can be made not only with the use of pink and white varnishes. Add zest to your usual manicure and make it bright. There are many options for a mint-colored french - the nail is of the main color, and the free edge of the nail plate is white, or vice versa, but a mint-pink french-style manicure looks best. A variation or combination of a jacket with a moon manicure is also possible. This is the name of the variant of applying varnish, in which the entire nail plate is covered with color, with the exception of the hole near the cuticle. However, here you can experiment with color by making the hole pink, blue or black.
The simplest mint jacket is a pink or natural beige-pink nail and a mint-colored free edge. To create such a manicure, you will need a special stencil - adhesive tape that repeats the outline of the edge of the nail. However, at home, many people get by with improvised materials, such as paper tape, or even paint the tip of the nail with a thin brush.
So, first paint the nail pink or, if your nails naturally have a beautiful, even shade, just cover them with clear varnish. Then stick the stencil and mint the tip of the nail, remove the stencil and dry the polish. Apply top coat on top.
With sequins
Silver or golden sparkles will perfectly complement a mint manicure. Large sequins on all nails will create an evening version of it, and a small shimmer added to the nail of only the ring finger is quite suitable for a daytime everyday look.
For shiny nails, you can use a mint shimmery polish or clear glitter polish that is applied over the colored layer. And you can also use professional materials - dry glitter or glitter, which is poured from a jar onto an undried varnish. The glitter sticks to the nail, and then the excess can be brushed off with a dry brush. In order for the sequins to last longer, they need to be covered with a top layer on top.
With drawing
What pattern can be on your nails, your imagination will tell you. Modern materials for nail design allow you to create patterns of any complexity. Here are the easiest ways to make an original mint-colored manicure (photo options are attached):
- Geometric pattern made with stencils. The main varnish (for example, pink or golden) is applied to the entire nail, dried, then a stencil is glued onto it and applied over another layer of contrasting varnish - in our case, mint. The stencil is peeled off immediately, without waiting for the second layer to dry. This creates contrasting stripes and patterns.
- Drawing created with colored varnishes and a thin brush. Just paint your nails with mint polish and paint over any pattern. For example, get a mint flower nail polish.
- Drawing from dots of different sizes. The principle is the same as in the previous version, but only points are applied. You can put them with a special tool - a dots - or a toothpick.
- Stickers and decals. This is the easiest and most affordable way to diversify your mint manicure. Just stick the decal onto your painted nail and cover with a layer of top.
Gradient or ombre
A manicure that uses a smooth color transition does not lose its relevance. Usually 2 or 3 colors of varnish are used, in addition, you will need a special sponge and a regular sponge. You will also need a special product called Skin Defender to protect the cuticles and the skin around the nail. However, it can be replaced with a fat cream or petroleum jelly.
You can take any colors for the ombre, for example, mint, light blue and aqua, or use contrasting colors - mint and white or mint and pink.
First, do a manicure and cover your nails with a protective base coat. Apply Skin Defender to the skin around the nail and cuticle. When the gradient is applied to the nail, the product simply peels off like a film, leaving the finger and the skin around the nail clean and tidy. If there is no such product, gently lubricate the skin with a thick layer of cream. The varnish will not dry on it, and it can be gently wiped off with a cotton pad. If you have a special ombre sponge, then apply strips of varnish on it in the sequence you need and press against the nail, leaving an imprint. The colors on the sponge will lightly absorb and blend at the border, thus creating the desired smooth color transition. After that, remove the protective film or cream from the cuticle, dry the nail and cover with a top.
If you don't have a special sponge, use a regular sponge. Apply the main lighter shade of varnish to the nail, and a slightly darker color to the sponge and print it on the middle and free edge of the plate. Cover the very tip of the nail with a darker shade with a brush.
With rhinestones
Rhinestones in manicure can be present during the day (if there are few of them): this is not necessarily an evening look. In general, this decor can decorate any of the above manicure options. Often only the nails of the ring fingers are decorated with rhinestones, but more can be used. You can glue one or two pebbles to the nail, or sprinkle the entire nail plate with them.
It is best to use special glue for a strong fixing. It does not harm natural nails and holds the decoration tightly.
Of course, these are far from all the options for how you can make a mint manicure. In addition to the above, you can use a matte top to contrast with a glossy finish, or a top that mimics the craquelure effect on your nails. Also, the design can be diversified with multi-colored foil stripes, kamifubuki (multi-colored serpentine), special beads resembling eggs, pieces of gold leaf and even voluminous jewelry.
