Gel nail wraps – application & tips
Our gel nail wraps work slightly differently to self-adhesive nail foils.
In just 40 seconds, we will show you how to apply them step by step.
Step 1 – Preparation
Clean your nails, push back your cuticles and file your nails into shape.
Tip: Use Base Coat for best durability.
Step 2 – Select size
Select the appropriate foil for each nail
Tip: For intermediate sizes, use the smaller foil
Step 3 – Remove the wrap
Remove the protective film and carefully peel off the gel nail wrap.
Step 4 – Apply and smooth
Place the foil in the centre, smooth it out from the inside to the outside, fold the excess over the tip of the nail
Tip: Warm the gel nail wraps briefly in your hand – this makes them more flexible.
Step 5 – Filing
File down any excess foil.
Tip: Do not file sideways – this prevents ridges.
Step 6 – Curing
Cure your gel nail wraps hand by hand (NOT each finger individually) for 60-90 seconds under a UV LED lamp.
