FAQs
How long will this design last?
With proper maintenance, this design can last up to 2 weeks.
Can I use regular nail polish instead of gel polish?
Yes, but gel polish will provide a longer-lasting and more durable finish.
What if I don't have a steady hand for the Christmas lights?
Practice on a piece of paper first, or use nail stickers for an easier application.
Can I do this design on short nails?
Yes, but adjust the size of the French tips and the Christmas light details accordingly. The lights may become dots.
Is this design suitable for beginners?
While the French tips are relatively easy, the Christmas light details require some skill and patience. Beginners may want to start with a simpler design or use nail stickers.
What is the best gold polish for the lights?
A highly pigmented, metallic gold polish or a gold nail art pen will work best. Ensure the polish is thin enough to draw fine lines.
