- Gel Base Coat & Top Coat
- Jet Black Gel Polish
- Metallic Gold Gel Polish or Gold Chrome Pigment
- Ultra-fine Nail Art Brush (000 or similar)
- Lint-free Wipes & Gel Cleanser
- Prep nails: shape, buff, push back cuticles, and apply a dehydrator/primer.
- Apply a thin layer of gel base coat and cure. Follow with 1-2 coats of jet black gel polish, curing each layer.
- Using an ultra-fine liner brush and metallic gold gel polish or gold chrome pigment (applied over a tack-free black layer), meticulously paint the geometric Art Deco patterns, ensuring crisp lines and sharp angles. Cure.
- Add intricate details or accent shapes with the fine brush, ensuring symmetry and precision for the 'photo-real' effect. Cure each element if layering colors.
- Seal the entire design with a high-gloss, no-wipe gel top coat, ensuring even coverage and encapsulating all art. Cure thoroughly for optimal shine and durability.
- Cleanse any tacky layer (if not no-wipe top coat) and apply cuticle oil for a perfect finish.
Expert Tip
Achieving the 'photo-real' finish requires patience and a steady hand. Work in thin layers, cure each color thoroughly, and ensure your fine line brush is properly saturated but not overloaded to prevent bleeding and maintain sharp, crisp edges.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does this Art Deco design last?
With proper gel application and aftercare, expect your stunning Art Deco nails to last 2-3 weeks without chipping or fading.
Can I customize the geometric patterns?
Absolutely! While inspired by classic Art Deco, we can adapt the specific geometric shapes and line work to your preference, making each set uniquely yours.
Is the metallic gold actually gold?
We use professional-grade metallic gold gel polish or chrome pigment to achieve that authentic, brilliant gold shimmer, not just a yellow tone.
Will these nails look bulky?
No, our 'photo-real' technique focuses on fine line work and thin gel layers, ensuring a sleek, natural feel without added bulk.
Can this design be done on shorter nails?
While longer nails allow for more intricate detail, we can adapt simplified Art Deco patterns to suit shorter nail lengths, maintaining the elegant aesthetic.
What nail shapes best suit this design?
Almond, coffin, and square shapes beautifully complement the sharp lines and sophisticated geometry of Art Deco designs.
Aftercare Tips
- ✓Moisturize hands and cuticles regularly to extend the life and look of your manicure.
- ✓Avoid harsh chemicals or acetone-based products near your nails, as they can dull the finish or damage the art.
- ✓Be gentle with your nails, especially immediately after application, to allow full curing.
Safe Removal
- 1.Gently file off the top coat to break the seal, being careful not to file into your natural nail.
- 2.Soak cotton pads in acetone, place them on each nail, and wrap with foil for 10-15 minutes.
- 3.Gently scrape off the softened gel with a wooden stick; never force or peel.
