Applying & Removing Gel Nail Stickers
APPLYING GEL POLISH STICKERS
1. Prepare: File your nails into the desired shape. Use the cuticle pusher to push back your cuticles. Clean your nails with the included alcohol wipe.
2. Choose the right size sticker: Hold the sticker sheet over your nails to choose the right size. Leave a gap between the sticker and your skin/cuticle to prevent air from getting underneath.
3. Apply: Remove the protective film from the sticker. Peel the sticker from the sheet and apply it to your nail. Press the sticker down firmly, especially the sides.
4. File or trim: Trim or file off any excess so that the gel polish sticker is the length of your own nail. This doesn't have to be perfect.
5. Cure: Cure the sticker under the UV LED lamp. Afterwards, file the nail again so that the edges are nice and smooth.
6. Top Coat: Apply a layer of top coat for extra shine and protection and cure again under the lamp. And you're done!
TIPS: Rub the sticker sheet between your hands before applying so they are more pliable for application.
Do not apply in direct sunlight. And after application, avoid contact with water for the first few hours so that the gel polish stickers have a good chance to adhere.
Removing the gel polish stickers
Supplies:
Cuticle oil and an orange stick.
1. Create space: Gently loosen the edges a little using the orange stick.
2. Loosening: Apply cuticle oil between your nail and the sticker to dissolve the adhesive layer. Use the orange stick to carefully peel it off. Is it too difficult? Apply more oil and let it soak for a while.
IMPORTANT: Never remove the stickers without oil, and even when using oil, do not pull them off if they are still too stuck, as this can damage your nails.
