Tips for Perfectly Applying Your Nail Stickers
- Align the sticker carefully: Place it slightly smaller than your nail, avoiding contact with the skin and cuticles.
- Reposition if needed: If the sticker overlaps the skin or is misplaced, gently peel it off and reapply without damaging it.
- Start with smaller nails: Apply the stickers on your pinky fingers first and work your way to the thumbs.
- Apply gradually: Avoid placing the sticker flat all at once. Start at the base of your nail and press it down slowly toward the tip to avoid bubbles.
- For short nails: Cut the sticker in half if necessary.
- Trim for precision: Adjust the edges of the sticker by cutting them to fit your nail shape.
Top Coat Recommendations:
- Use a quality top coat: This ensures the stickers last longer.
- Recommended products:
- A semi-permanent top coat for the best protection.
- A long lasting classic top coat, which dries quickly in the air and works well with nail stickers.
- Optional: You can skip the top coat, but your manicure won’t last as long.
Aftercare for Non-Permanent Top Coats:
- Avoid water for several hours: While you can wash your hands gently, avoid showers or dishwashing right after application.
- Reapply weekly: Add another layer of top coat every week or whenever your manicure seems less protected.
Removal Tips:
- Magic remover gel: Apply a dissolving gel “magic remover” for 3 minutes, then gently scrape off the stickers.
- Soak method: Soak your nails in regular nail polish remover until the stickers soften, then peel from the edges.
