- Apply 1-2 coats of your chosen sophisticated base color (e.g., nude, soft grey) to all nails, curing each layer.
- Using ultra-fine brushes and high-pigment gel paints, meticulously hand-paint the photo-real detailing elements (e.g., intricate florals, lace, architectural motifs) on each nail. Cure after major sections.
- Add depth and realism through subtle shading, highlighting, and fine line work, building up the photo-real effect. Cure often between intricate layers.

- Cleanse any inhibition layer with alcohol, then apply nourishing cuticle oil and hand cream to finish.
Expert Tip
Achieving true photo-realism requires patience and a steady hand. Work in thin layers, cure frequently, and don't hesitate to use a magnifying lamp for intricate detailing to ensure every line is crisp and every shade blends perfectly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does this photo-real detailing typically last?
With diligent aftercare and professional application, your sophisticated design can remain pristine for 2-3 weeks, similar to a standard gel manicure.
Is it possible to apply this intricate design on shorter nails?
While our artists are highly skilled, the complexity and detail of photo-real art truly flourish on medium to long nail lengths, offering ample canvas for the intricate work.
What makes this design 'photo-real' compared to other nail art?
'Photo-real' refers to the artistic technique of creating lifelike depth, shading, and texture using gel paints and micro-brushes, mimicking the realism found in photographs or fine paintings, rather than literal photo transfers.
Why is the cost higher for photo-real detailing?
The investment reflects the extensive time (often 1.5 hours or more), advanced artistic skill, and specialized tools required for creating such intricate, high-quality, and unique salon-level artwork.
Can I customize the subject of the detailed design?
Absolutely! Consult with your artist to discuss specific themes or patterns that can be translated into the sophisticated photo-real style, tailored just for you.
How do I protect this sophisticated design from damage?
A durable, high-gloss top coat is essential. Also, practice gentle nail habits, wear gloves for protection during chores, and apply cuticle oil daily to maintain the integrity of the artwork.
Aftercare Tips
- ✓Avoid prolonged soaking in water, as this can compromise the gel adhesion.
- ✓Moisturize hands and cuticles with a non-greasy lotion to keep them healthy.
- ✓Resist the urge to pick or peel at your gel, as this can damage your natural nails and the detailed design.
- ✓If a nail needs repair, consult your professional artist promptly.
Safe Removal
- 1.Gently file off the top coat to break the seal over the sophisticated design.
- 2.Soak nails in acetone wraps or a bowl for 10-15 minutes, allowing the gel to soften completely.
- 3.Carefully push off the softened gel with an orange wood stick, avoiding scraping your natural nail. Never force the gel off.
