No Base Color! A Special Feature on the Allure of "Clear Nails"

Sparkling in the Sunlight ♡ Transparent Nails*

In the world of nails, new designs and art trends are constantly emerging to match the seasons and times.

Recently, I found a design that I thought was so cute called "transparent nails"! ♡

Transparent nails, also known as clear nails, have a clear and transparent appearance just like the name suggests. *

Normally, when doing nail art, it’s typical to apply a colored base coat over a base coat ➡ do the art ➡ then apply a top coat.

However, in the case of transparent nails, you skip applying base colors like red or pink, using clear (or very very light colors) as the base, and then doing the art on top of the clear. ♩

This results in a unique nail art that has a nuance nail-like appearance. ♡

I Want to Try Transparent Nails ♡

Transparent nails that feel somewhat mode, earthy, and masculine might be a type of nail art that is completely opposite from the girlie and feminine impression.

Such nuance nails tend to have extravagant designs, but (they surprisingly make hands look beautiful), so there are many benefits for women that make me want to challenge myself to try them! ♡
