PURPLE VIOLET NAILS+30 ideas in Images 💅

At the same time, a bright and expressive purple-lilac manicure becomes a noticeable accent in the image, even if the pink color is used only in nail design.

From delicate lavender to dark "aubergine", the variety of shades of purple and lilac inspire a wide variety of nail art options. In this article, we will show you how to combine shades of purple with other colors and what design ideas with the addition of purple can come to life.

WHO ARE PURPLE AND PINK NAILS FOR?

Considering how many shades of purple and lilac there are, you can choose a manicure option of this color for any color type and for any occasion.

Light varnishes of this color with a milky-white base suit, perhaps, all, regardless of the “warm” or “cold” color type. The result in both cases is soft, with a touch of romanticism. But such a manicure is appropriate not only on a date, but also in any everyday situation.

This shade is more saturated. It is not universal, it is mainly combined with neutral colors: gray, black, white. When choosing an outfit with such a manicure, keep this in mind.

If the purple is brighter, it is easy to combine it with other colors. Even with self-sufficients like red, blue, green, yellow, orange. Purple nails are perfect for a party look.

The deep purple color of ripe plum is an expressive and deep shade that can be used in any situation: it makes all looks (both day and night) prettier, “more mature”, “more expensive”. But it is important to understand that this shade is more likely for girls with “summer” and “autumn” color types, that is, for a warm skin tone. If the color type is cold, then such a manicure can give the skin a painfully pale look.

COLOR COMBINATION IN PURPLE DESIGN.

Those who decide to use lilac or purple in nail art in combination with other colors should think about choosing the right combination. Shades should be in harmony with each other or expressively contrast. Lavender is suitable for most pastel shades, and dark mulberry can be combined with contrasting light colors, for example, white.

White and purple are friendly as both colors are equally catchy. A manicure with such a color combination turns out to be successful. It is better to use this color combination in graphic design. The easiest option is to make the background color purple and paint over the nail hole with white. But there are other ways, as in the photo below.

To make the violet shade look more noble, apply a special matte finish on top of the varnish layers. The finish will be velvety and will make the result more expressive.

Light purple and lilac manicure with beige

For those who are ready to experiment with manicure, you can add beige to light purple; this non-obvious combination turns out to be extremely beautiful due to its softness. In manicures, these colors are best combined using techniques such as water marbling. Stains of lavender with delicate touches of beige and coffee will decorate the nails, stripes will also look very impressive.

For darker shades of purple, finding a "pair" isn't easy. If you don't want to use neutral colors like white as a complement, choose shimmery varnishes with a metallic effect. Its radiance will contrast with the depth of the purple tone, due to which the manicure will turn out to be especially expressive. Another option is to use rhinestones instead of "metallic" varnishes. True, this design is more likely for special occasions.

PURPLE NAIL DESIGN OPTIONS

Making a manicure with purple varnish, consider the features of its compatibility with other colors, but do not be afraid to experiment.

Purple tones are what you need to create a graphic manicure. For example, a service jacket. It is suitable for both short and long nails. To highlight your tips, feel free to use purple in its brightest incarnations. You can try another option: instead of translucent pink, as in the classic French manicure, use lavender as the background color.

Lunar purple manicure

So that a monochrome manicure does not look ordinary, try to “cut” a hole, circle the contour and leave it colorless. You can do it in another way. For example, combine several shades of purple in your nail art (say, the “milky” color of yogurt with blueberries and dark blackberries): paint over the background with one of them, and highlight the hole with the other. To make this graphic design more original, try customizing the shape of the hole.

Transparent manicure with a purple pattern.

At the height of the fashion: decoration of nails covered with transparent varnish, small drawings. Use purple to decorate such a manicure with inflorescences, delicate violets or other flowers. This pattern is in line with the latest trends. Find other ideas for purple manicure with drawings below.

Matte “knitted” violet manicure

If flowers are not the most obvious option for the autumn-winter season, then what you need in the cold is a knitted manicure. Use soft, “cozy” shades of violet to create a volumetric pattern that repeats the pattern of a chunky knitted sweater. A matte finish will give this manicure an even warmer look.
