Stylish newspaper manicure

Beautiful and well-groomed nails will always be appreciated by those around them, so all women are always trying to pick up something new and original for their marigolds. Today we take a look at the best newspaper manicure ideas.

What is newspaper manicure?

A newspaper manicure is a newspaper print that is achieved by transferring lettering or newspaper clippings onto your nails. Thanks to this, an amazing and unique nail design is formed.

In the modern world there are a large number of proposals where newspaper manicure differs from each other in color, texture and, of course, design.

Pros of newspaper manicure

• Easy to do;
• You need a minimum of material;
• Always original and unusual coating;
• Can be easily corrected if the coating fails to apply the first time.

How to do a newspaper manicure at home

Method number 1

You'll need:

1. Newspaper (can be old and yellowed to create a more "old" version of the manicure);
2. Scissors;
3. Light and transparent varnish;
4. Alcohol;
5. Plate;
6. Base coat and top coat.

Work process:

If your nails are in order, then you can immediately proceed to the next step, and if the nails require care, then you should first make the classic version of the edged manicure. Go on this link and you can read in more detail about the trim version of the manicure.

When your marigolds are already in order, then we cut out small pieces and strips from the newspaper. Try to cut the pieces of the newspaper so that the words are clearly visible in them. Next, we apply a base coat to the nails and wait for it to dry. Then we dip our finger in a plate with alcohol and put a newspaper strip on the nail.

The strip needs to be slightly pressed against the nail and removed after a couple of seconds. You will see the words imprinted on it. We do the same with other nails and cover the nails with top varnish.

Method number 2

You will need everything the same as in the first method, but only here you need to use cotton swabs that need to be moistened with alcohol. We also apply a large amount of varnish to the nails, and when it dries up, we apply alcohol soaked in a cotton swab to the nail.

After a couple of seconds, put a piece of newspaper on the nail and wrap it with a cotton swab with alcohol. Leave it for a couple of minutes and remove the cotton swab. The inscription is also beautifully imprinted on the nail.

Classical

It uses a standard newspaper, where the inscription is transferred to the nails in black and white. Light varnish or shiny varnish is used as a background.

Antique

As a basis for the design, newspaper clippings with barely noticeable "aging" should be applied to the nails. Also, the newspaper may be slightly burnt, which will help create an old-fashioned effect.

Original

As an original cover for newspaper manicure, color drawings, patterns, additional decor and nail decorations can be used. Drawings can decorate all nails at once, or only a few.
