Frequently Asked Questions

Can I achieve this design without an airbrush?

While an airbrush creates the most photo-realistic effect, you can try blending with a makeup sponge, though the result won't be as seamless.

What kind of stencils should I use?

Delicate floral or lace stencils work best to create an elegant and refined look.

How long will this design last?

With proper application and care, gel polish can last up to two weeks without chipping.

Is this design suitable for short nails?

While medium-length nails are ideal, you can adapt the design to shorter nails by simplifying the airbrush details.

Can I use regular nail polish instead of gel?

You can, but the durability and photo-real finish will be difficult to achieve. Gel polish is recommended.

What's the best way to clean an airbrush?

Use an airbrush cleaner and follow the manufacturer's instructions to prevent clogs.

Aftercare Tips

  • Keep nails moisturized with a hand cream.
  • Avoid picking or biting your nails.
  • Schedule regular manicures to maintain nail health.

Safe Removal

  • 1.File off the top layer of gel polish.
  • 2.Soak cotton balls in acetone, place them on your nails, and wrap with foil. After 10-15 minutes, gently scrape off the softened gel.
