Frequently Asked Questions
How long does this Photo-Real Foil design typically last?
With proper application and aftercare, this design can last 2-3 weeks, similar to a standard gel manicure.
Can I get this design on short nails?
While it's possible, medium to long nail lengths are highly recommended as they provide a larger canvas to fully showcase the intricate 'photo-real' detail and multi-dimensional shimmer of the foil.
Is foil nail art durable?
Absolutely! When expertly sealed with a high-quality gel top coat, the foil is protected, making the design very durable and chip-resistant.
Does 'photo-real' mean it's a sticker or print?
No, 'photo-real' refers to the advanced technique of layering and applying transfer foils to create a rich, multi-dimensional effect that *looks* incredibly detailed and almost like a photograph of metallic textures, not a pre-printed sticker.
Can different foil colors be combined in one design?
Yes, mixing and layering different metallic or iridescent foil colors is a fantastic way to enhance the 'photo-real' depth and customize the design to your preference.
Will this design damage my natural nails?
When applied and removed professionally by a skilled technician, this design, like other gel-based nail art, protects your natural nails rather than damaging them.
Aftercare Tips
- ✓Apply a quality cuticle oil every night to maintain nail health and prolong the life of your manicure.
- ✓Protect your nails from direct, heavy impact to prevent chipping or lifting of the foil.
- ✓Avoid prolonged soaking in water immediately after your appointment to allow for full curing and adhesion.
- ✓If any lifting occurs, refrain from pulling and contact your nail technician for a quick fix.
Safe Removal
- 1.The top gel coat must be gently filed down to break the seal.
- 2.Soak nails in pure acetone for 10-15 minutes until the product softens.
- 3.Gently push off the softened gel and foil with a wooden pusher, never force or scrape harshly.
