Frequently Asked Questions
How long will this 'photo-real' manicure last?
With professional application and proper aftercare, you can expect this gel manicure to last beautifully for 3-4 weeks.
Can I achieve this look with regular nail polish?
While you can mimic the sheer color, the 'photo-real' high-gloss, durability, and smooth, flawless finish are best achieved with professional gel products and techniques.
Is this design suitable for shorter nails?
Absolutely! The sophisticated nature of this design, particularly with an almond or oval shape, looks incredibly elegant on shorter to medium length nails.
What does 'photo-real' finish truly mean?
'Photo-real' refers to a finish so smooth, shiny, and perfectly executed that it looks flawless and natural, even under the intense scrutiny of high-definition photography.
Will adding a design ruin the 'sophisticated' look?
Subtle, minimalist additions like a single micro-gem or an ultra-fine, barely-there lace accent on one nail can enhance, rather than detract from, the sophisticated aesthetic, provided they are applied with precision.
Is this look expensive to maintain?
While the initial salon service is an investment in quality, proper at-home care with cuticle oil and protection will extend its life, making it a cost-effective choice for long-lasting beauty.
Aftercare Tips
- ✓Keep nails and cuticles moisturized to prevent dryness and peeling.
- ✓Be gentle with your hands to prolong the life of your manicure.
- ✓Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals without protection.
- ✓If a nail breaks or lifts, consult a professional for repair to avoid damage.
Safe Removal

- 2.Professional soak-off removal is recommended to protect your nail health.
- 3.Ensure all gel is gently pushed off, never forced, after soaking.
- 4.Hydrate and nourish nails immediately after removal.
