10 Coolest Nail Art Designs

3d nail art with stereoscopic designs is made by quickly applying a paint-like substance called ‘mixture' over the nails and forming the shape you want before drying. When creating nail designs such as flowers, each part is made individually in advance, then put together and glued on to the nail chip. Sounds like a lot of trouble. Meet some crazy nail art designs and other pictures of nail art ideas!

Asian Nail Tips

ASIAN NAIL TIPS


Did you know that the art of sculpting nails actually started in the Asian countries? They had already been extremely popular in Korea and Japan long before the fad reached the European countries as well as the United States. It was in these countries, therefore, that many unique nail designs came just like the famous Asian nail tips.

Asian nail tips are characterized by its rectangular shape that grows thinner as it grows longer. It is quite hard to achieve this, especially for working moms as longer nails are more fragile and could easily break. Aside from that, those who have kids are not allowed to have long nails at all, making it even more impossible to achieve the look.

For those who are obsessed about getting Asian nail tips but could not, do not lose hope. Thanks to creative nail art suppliers, fake nails can readily be purchased without much hassle. Through this, one can just point or click the buy button at their desired Asian nail tips look or length. You even have the freedom to color and design the nails the way you want to and just choose from among them which one would best suit the occasion and then have them glued on your own nails.

acrylic nails



Acrylic nails the last longer and are stronger than most nail overlays on the market now. It is best to go to a qualified nail technician that has experience with applying acrylic nails; sometimes if not applied properly they will look thick and fake.

If you prefer to do this at home on your own then this is the items you will need to apply your own acrylic nails:

• Cotton Balls
• Paper Towels (The best are nail towels for applying acrylic nails.)
• Nailbrush (So you can scrub your nails after you have filed and smoothed the acrylic nails to prepare them for polishing.)
• Nail Polish Remover (Use a non-acetone because acetone removers will destroy the acrylic nail tips and the overlay)
• Nail File (To help shape your new acrylic nails)
• Filing Block – 3-way filer (This is a rectangular file with grit on all four sides)
• Acrylic Nipper (This is for clipping off old acrylic nails)
• Artificial Nail Tips (You can choose from many different styles for your acrylic nails)
• Acrylic Liquid (Choose the type you prefer for your acrylic nails)
• Powdered Acrylic (Do not use a cheap brand, it can cause your acrylic nails to lift off and also can cause a
yellowing effect if you are out in the sun or use tanning beds.)
• Acrylic Brush (For applying the acrylic nails)
• Dampening Dish (This is to hold the acrylic liquid while you are applying the acrylic nails)
• Nail Brush (To remove excess powder)
• Polish (Just choose your favorite)
• Fast Drying Topcoat (Choose your favorite)
• Nail Oil (Choose your favorite)

How to apply the acrylic for your acrylic nails:
~First, you should use the nail polish remover, then prepare your nails, use the nail file and roughen up your nails a bit. Have your artificial nail tips ready and set out beside your dampening dish. ~Now, add a drop of
nail glue and put the acrylic nail tips in place. Use the acrylic nipper to clip the tips to the size you want your acrylic nails to be. File down any rough edges. Now pour some liquid acrylic into the dampening dish
and open the acrylic powder.

Dip your brush into the liquid not too much; make sure it is not dripping off the brush, then dip the brush into the powder. A small moist ball should form at the end of your brush. Apply this ball to the seam and on your natural nail. Repeat this process; be sure not to get any of it on the cuticle as this can cause lifting. You will have to make a tiny mound so your nails do not look fake, but will look natural. Apply the liquid and powder to the whole nail including the acrylic nail as to even out the nail and remember the mound.

After, your acrylic nails are dry you can then file and shape them the way you way. Scrub your nails again to remove any excess dirt. Now, you can apply your favorite polish and you are set to go.

You can now enjoy applying your own acrylic nails in the privacy of your own home and save money. But, when you want to be pampered let the nail technician do this job...^~

An Easy way to paint you nails...

I will give you many  way to paint your nail:
  • ~ you can do zebras like I do Just grab a bright color like neon green & then with a black color on the toothpick Just quickly move it to the left or right diagonally.its so cool when you experiment with other colors too.
  •  
  • ~ you can do little cute smiley face sat your nails
  •  
  • ~ Take black nail polish, paint all of your names black, then take 3 other colors. Say, if you use pink, purple, and teal , take the pink, put it on the pink and thumb ends like french tips, then take purple, put purple as you did with pink but put it on the ring and index finger. Then take teal and put it on your middle finger one.
  •  
  • ~ Maybe try to paint your whole nail a darker colour like dark purple, dark blue, black, etc. Then take a glitter pink and go from one corner to another...
  •  
  • ~ Put polka dots on some nails after painting it (once its dry) , or you could paint your nails lots of different colours if that makes sense.
  •  
  • ~  1. Make them about three colors that match nicely together such as pink, orange, and white or brown, light pink, and yellow. 2. Stripes, put red white and blue strips on for the 4th of July or red and green for Christmas. 3. French manicures always look good. They are really nice for special occasions or when you don't want anything really funky

Japanese nail art


Stereoscopic nail art has been popular in Japan since the mid-90s and the style is increasing in popularity in the US and other parts of the world too now.
This isn't like French manicure on a sports-length acrylic nail . We're talking one to two inches of nail extending past the tip of the finger. Accompanying the trend is an accessories trend designed to either show off the nails.
 In Japanese nail art, nail artists use hand-painting or airbrush techniques on on acrylic nail chips that are then attached to the real nail underneath. The artwork work can also be done directly on the hand (or foot!)

While most of the two-dimensional art is designed to give some depth and the impression of three dimensions, actual 3-dimensional art is practiced as well ,using sculpture powder and the addition of charms and small bits of jewelry. Apparently, the nail industry is really big in Japan right now, so it’s no wonder they’ve actually organized an exposition where nail artists could showcase their latest masterpieces.
