Frequently Asked Questions
How long will this design last?

Can I use regular nail polish instead of gel polish?
While you can, gel polish provides a more durable and long-lasting finish, essential for intricate designs. Regular polish might chip more easily.
Are photo-real nail stickers easy to apply?
Some practice may be needed, but generally, they are easier than hand-painting. Ensure the nail surface is smooth and clean before application.
What if I don't have an airbrush system?
You can achieve similar results with fine-tipped brushes and a steady hand. Alternatively, focus on detailed sticker application.
Can I customize the design with my own vacation photos?
Yes! You can find custom nail stickers or decals online that allow you to incorporate personal photos into your design.
