Frequently Asked Questions
How do I achieve the perfect clean lines?
Use a fine detail brush and steady hand. Practice on paper first, and clean up any mistakes immediately with a brush dipped in nail cleanser.
What type of gel polish is best for this design?
Highly pigmented gel polishes with a smooth, self-leveling formula are ideal for achieving a flawless, photo-realistic finish.
Can this design be done on natural nails?
Yes, this design can be achieved on natural nails, but gel polish typically lasts longer on structured enhancements like acrylics or builder gel.
How can I make the design last longer?
Proper nail prep, thin and even gel polish application, and consistent cuticle oil application are key to extending the life of your manicure.
Is this design suitable for beginners?
While the overall concept is simple, achieving the clean lines requires some practice and precision. Beginners may find it challenging at first.
Can I use regular nail polish instead of gel?
While possible, regular nail polish will not achieve the same photo-real quality and durability as gel polish.
