We have a lot of choices when it comes to taking care of our nails—some just use plain nail polish, while others go the creative route of nail art. At Grace & Glamour, we think nail art is not just about looks; it’s about expression and self-expression.
These are merely some reasons why nail art is such a great option over traditional nail polish!
- A Canvas for Creativity?
Although basic nail polish is permanent, nail art allows you to try out design, colors, and patterns. You can adore bright, bold colors or subtle, refined ones through nail art – the choice is yours for projecting your personality.
- Makes You Stand Out
Among a sea of single-colored nails, nail art is sure to turn heads! Go to a party, wedding, or even work or school knowing that your customized nail art can be an amazing icebreaker.
- Personalizable Based On Your Flair
Nail art is completely personalized to your choice. In contrast to simple nail polish, which is not particularly versatile, nail art can be created in such a way that it will fit your mood, outfit, or event. You have the advantage of making your own or picking various designs that you like the most.
- Longer-Lasting Than Traditional Polish
Regular nail polish usually wears off within a few days, but with professionally done nail art, you can keep it going for weeks, as long as you provide it with some TLC. That’s because you simply don’t have as much time for touch-ups!
- Gives A Touch of Sophistication & Professionalism
Nail art, if done properly, not only makes one look stylish but also adds an elegant touch to one’s persona. If you’re working in the fashion, creative, or corporate industry, then neat and clean nail art indicates that you’re an individual who is meticulous and also maintains your dressing.
Looking to Try Nail Art? Here’s How You Can Get Started!
If you’re new to nail art, fear not! The Grace & Glamour team has some simple tips to get you started with nail art.
- Keep it Simple
You can start with solid colors and simple patterns like dots or stripes before attempting complex designs. It’s always best to take things step by step.
- Use the Correct Tools
You don’t have to have a whole professional kit, but spending in a base coat, top coat, good brushes, and dotting tools will be worth it. Stencils or tape will also give you sharp and clean lines.
- Play with Colors & Patterns
Experiment with different colors, textures, and patterns. If you’re at a loss for where to begin, start with pastel colors, easy florals, or geometric patterns.
- Don’t Freak Out About Making Mistakes
Nobody gets it right the first time! If your design does not turn out as planned, wash it off and attempt again. Nail art is all about patience and persistence.
- Maintain Healthy Nails
Good nails simply make any design more aesthetically pleasing. Trimmings of hydrated, clean nails, with a base coat always applied to prevent them from staining, are the secret. Drunk cuticles also make your hands appear more polished.
