The curvy trend has existed since 2009 when nail art first caught on but has only just gained popularity. Thousands are now posting photos of their new 3D talons on Instagram under the hashtag #bubblenails.

拱形美甲最早出现于2009年，那时美甲刚流行开来，不过直到最近才人气大涨。当前，几千人在Instagram 上用“#泡泡美甲的标签，发布他们新做的3D美甲照片。

 

 

The bubble base is just another way manicure fans are making their talons the focus of their look with jewels and patterns also piled onto the nail. Women are choosing brightly-colored polishes or layers of glitter over the acrylic to draw attention to the nails.

美甲控们也会在泡泡美甲上装饰宝石和图案，如此一来，他们另辟蹊径，把别人对外在的注意力吸引到手上了。女人会选择亮丽的颜色或涂一些闪光层来博取眼球。

Hump nails are also gaining popularity - these use a similar technique to bubble nails but with a longer nail for a base. The acrylic close to the cuticle has to be thinner, with the liquid gradually building up towards a bump in the middle, then thinning out again at the tip of the nail.

拱形指甲也日趋盛行。这与“泡泡美甲上使用的方法类似，但指甲要长一点。指甲根部的美甲涂料须薄一点，越往中间越厚，形成一个拱形弧度，然后向着指甲尖处逐渐变薄。
