Frequently Asked Questions

How long will this design last?

With proper care, this photo-real bridal nail design can last up to 3-4 weeks.

Can I add glitter to this design?

Yes, but use a very fine glitter sparingly to maintain the elegant and sophisticated look.

What kind of top coat should I use?

Use a high-quality, non-yellowing top coat to preserve the color and shine of the design.

Are there any alternatives to gel polish?

While gel polish offers the best longevity and finish, you can try using high-quality traditional nail polish with a long-lasting top coat. However, the results may not be as durable or photo-realistic.

Aftercare Tips
