How to Apply GEL Nailwraps
Hey Gorgeous! Ready to get those nails party-ready in minutes? Follow these super simple steps to apply your nailwraps like a pro and add some finesse to your fingertips!
What You’ll Need:
- Your favorite nailwraps
- Nail file
- Cuticle pusher (optional, tip: dip into cotton wool and twist the end to create a soft cushion tip for your nails)
- Scissors (optional, for custom fits)
- LED nail lamp
- Alcohol wipe
- Base coat (optional as a layer of protection for your nails)
Step-by-Step Guide:
Prep Your Nails:
- Start with clean, dry nails. Give your hands a quick wash and ensure there’s no old polish or oils on your nails.
- Buff your nails lightly to provide a smooth base for your wraps.
- Use your cuticle pusher to gently push the skin from your cuticles back and away from your nails to help your nails grow.
- Apply a base coat (optional).
Choose Your Size:
- Select the nailwrap that best fits each nail. If the size isn’t perfect, you can trim the edges with scissors for a custom fit.
Apply:
- Peel the nailwrap off the backing paper. Place it carefully on your nail, starting at the cuticle. Smooth it out towards the edges to avoid any bubbles or wrinkles.
- Press down firmly on the wrap to make sure it adheres well to the nail. Use your fingertips or a soft cloth to smooth it out.
File Away Excess:
- Fold the excess wrap over the tip of your nail and gently file off the excess in a downward motion.
- Optionally, do this once the nailwrap is cured after snipping back to the nail.
Cure It:
- Pop your nails under an LED lamp for 60 seconds to seal in that real gel finish. You’ll feel the magic lock in.
Tips for Flawless Application:
- Make sure your nails are completely dry before applying the wraps.
- Avoid touching the sticky side of the wrap too much, as oils from your skin can affect the adhesion.
- If you make a mistake, no worries! Gently peel the wrap off, realign, and reapply.
- Keep your hands dry and avoid water for about an hour after application to ensure the wraps set properly.
