Frequently Asked Questions
What are semi-cured gel nail wraps?
Gel nail wraps are made of gel nail ingredients, not ordinary plastic. They are thin strips of gel polish that have been 60% cured, making them flexible and able to stretch to fit many nail sizes.
When the nail strips are cured, they are fully hardened and attached to your nails giving a salon quality finish at the fraction of the price.

How are the nail wraps applied?
-
Trim and shape your natural nails as desired*. Smooth your nails by using a nail file and remove the dead skin around the nails.
-
Clean nails with an alcohol wipe and wait for your nails to dry. Ensure there are no oils or lotions on your nail as this can affect adhesion.

-
Use a wood stick to apply pressure and smooth down the edges.
-
Remove the excess by using a nail file and cure under a UV/LED lamp for 60 seconds.
*We recommend you apply SPF 50+ sunscreen on your hands 20 minutes prior to commencing.
How are the nail wraps removed?
1. Apply a few drops of nail polish remover or acetone near the cuticle and use a wooden cuticle stick to gently push the nail strip away from the cuticle until it lifts. Alternatively, you can dip the wooden stick directly into the nail polish remover.
2. Use cotton wipes and nail polish remover to wipe off remaining adhesive
3. Finish off with cuticle oil and hand lotion.
How should the gel nail stickers be stored?
Gel nail stickers harden when exposed to light. Store unused stickers in the packaging they came in and away from direct sunlight. They should ideally be kept in a cool climate controlled area such as a drawer or cupboard.
