Black and white – a classic color combination that looks stylish at all times. This combination of shades is found quite often in manicures. Modern materials and manicure techniques allow you to create amazing works of art on your nails.
Black and white manicure is an excellent choice to complement an evening outfit. Depending on the desired overall style and image, the color scheme in the manicure is determined, namely the predominance of black or white.
It would seem that you can create something unique and unusual using just two colors. But a collection of photos with black and white manicure ideas clearly demonstrates that the main thing in nail design is your imagination and the ability to improvise. First you need to choose a base shade and do one of the options: white manicure with a black pattern or black manicure with a white pattern. The first design is more casual, the second is more evening-oriented.

Black and white manicure looks more stylish when combined with plain clothes. Although a lot depends on the choice of design and the main color of the nails (again, black or white). If you want to create an evening manicure, then you can additionally use elements to decorate your nails, such as pearls, microbeads, gold ribbons or foil, etc.
Combination of textures and geometry
In the past, there was a clear competition between glossy and matte finishes. This season they are being used together. Nowadays, an active combination of glossy and matte varnish is in fashion. Matte shades are often used as a base, and triangles, diamonds and squares are rendered glossy or vice versa, which also looks very stylish (photo). The velvety quality of the base coating is perfectly emphasized by metallized adhesive tape.
It is also possible to use two types of coating not only on one nail, but on the entire hand. For example, several fingers can be coated matte and geometric shapes (dots, intersections of lines) placed on them, and the remaining fingers can be coated with glossy varnish. If you are not a professional craftsman and you do not have the necessary tools, then you can use improvised means, such as thin brushes, needles, stencils and much more.
Your assistants
If you decide that your nails will be decorated with geometry this fall, you need to arm yourself with the necessary tools for such a manicure:
- An orange stick, dots or bobby pin with a ball at the end will help you apply dots;
- when drawing artistic lines, you can use an eyeliner brush or a regular one for drawing, which must first be cut;
- to mark the boundaries of the area to be painted, thin tape is indispensable;
- thin metal tapes are a fashionable idea for applying shiny lines;
- The easiest way to create stylish geometry is to use purchased stencils or stamping.

Color selection
The color of the coating is of great importance. Especially in geometry. If the shade of the lines of geometric shapes does not match the varnish coating, then even the most fashionable pedicure will look ridiculous.
The most classic combination in the geometric style is the contrast of dark and light shades. It can be black with white, dark red with soft pink, blue with light blue, etc. Delicate shades go well with bright ones: blue stripes on beige or white features on yellow.
The design color palette should be chosen taking into account the current colors of a particular season. So in winter, all shades of red and nude tones are considered popular. But a summer pedicure can be done in bright colors: yellow, blue, green.
Pedicure with a bright geometric pattern
If you are in doubt when choosing the right shade for a complex or simple pattern, give preference to black. It looks good in combination with any tone.

Use your imagination and you will succeed.
