Techniques
Expert Tip
Achieving that 'photo-real' crispness lies in thin, even layers of white gel and a very steady hand with your liner brush. Practice painting on a nail wheel first to perfect your C-curve and ensure a perfectly uniform line before applying to the client's nails. Use an angled brush or a precise clean-up brush dipped in alcohol to sharpen any imperfect lines before curing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes these French Tips 'photo-real'?
The 'photo-real' aspect refers to the incredibly precise, sharp lines, perfectly uniform opacity of the white tip, and a glass-like glossy finish on the base. It’s a level of perfection that looks flawless even under close scrutiny and in high-definition photos.
How long do these professional French Tips typically last?
With proper application and aftercare, these gel-based French Tips can last 3-4 weeks before needing a fill or removal, maintaining their crispness and shine.
Can I achieve this 'salon quality' look at home?
While possible with extensive practice, the 'photo-real' salon quality requires advanced skill, a steady hand, and professional-grade products. We recommend trusting a skilled nail artist for the best results.
What's the best base color for a natural look?
A sheer nude or soft pink builder gel that complements your skin tone is ideal. It should be just transparent enough to look natural while providing a healthy, even tone.
Is this design suitable for shorter nails?
Absolutely! A well-executed French tip, even on shorter nails, can elongate the nail bed and still provide that sophisticated, clean aesthetic. The key is to adjust the thickness of the white tip proportionally.
How often should I get my French Tips re-done?
For optimal appearance and to prevent lifting or damage, we recommend a re-application or fill every 2-3 weeks, depending on your natural nail growth.
Aftercare Tips
- ✓Moisturize hands and cuticles regularly to promote nail health and flexibility.
- ✓Avoid prolonged exposure to water right after your appointment.
- ✓Resist picking or peeling at the polish, as this can damage your natural nail.
- ✓Apply a thin layer of clear top coat every few days to refresh the shine and add protection.
Safe Removal
- 1.Gently file down the top coat to break the seal, avoiding filing into the natural nail.
- 2.Soak nails in acetone-soaked cotton pads wrapped in foil for 10-15 minutes.
- 3.Carefully scrape off the softened gel with a wooden stick; do not force it. Repeat soaking if necessary.
