How to succeed in his nail contouring?

For Agathe Pons, the "moon shadow matte" manicure is the simplest version of nail contouring when you want to start at home.
The different steps :
- Apply a base coat grow faster to protect its nails to the maximum.
- Apply a layer of white varnish that is allowed to dry well.
- Then apply a layer of hot smokin varnish ( darker) on the "3/4 of the nail. The idea is to embrace the crescent moon shape of the bottom of the nail ... But leave a little white varnish apparent. It is this detail that creates the nail contouring and gives the nail a perfect shape.
- Matify the manicure by applying a layer of matte about you.

Variants of the nail contouring

- The "ruffian" or "reverse french" manicure which consists of coloring the lunula of the nail but in the opposite direction ie at the base of the nail. We speak of "half moon inverted".
- The "moon" manicure consists of bringing out the lunula of the nail by applying a layer of different varnish on the lunula.
- The manicure "sideways" consists of applying a band of different color on one side of the nail. This nail contouring gives the impression of a longer nail.
