The new Japanese-style manicure was named so unusually for a reason. Purely visually, such a coating on the nails resembles ceramics, restored just according to the principle of kintsugi. This art of joining cracks in crockery with a mixture of lacquer and gold powder dates back to the 15th century. Even then it became clear that kintsugi helps not only to repair the product but also adds beauty to it.
This season, nail masters offer to try out the ancient Japanese technique right on their nails. Agree that it looks very stylish and unusual? Another bonus of such a manicure is that it will perfectly complement any look, be it an office suit or a casual outfit for a walk with friends around the spring city.
Golden cracks look especially cool on a matte marble background. However, you can apply sparkling lines on top of the varnish of any other color – it all depends on your desires and imagination.
By the way, in some cases, the kintsugi technique can save a damaged manicure. For example, if your nail polish is cracked due to a craftsman’s mistake, you can fill them in with paint that imitates gold leaf. This will not only hide imperfections but also give your nail art a new life.
