How to use nail stickers?
Applying nail stickers is a fun and easy way to add some sparkle to your nails without the hassle of traditional manicures. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you apply nail stickers correctly:
Prepare your nails
Before you start applying nail polish or removing stickers, clean your hands and nails to remove any dirt, oil, or residue. You can also use nail polish remover. Even if you don't have nail polish on your nails, cleaning your nails before applying nail polish will prevent the stickers from falling off prematurely.
In addition to cleaning, you can also shape and polish your nails as needed. File your nails to the length and shape you want. Lightly polish the surface of your nails to ensure that your nails are smooth and flat.
Apply base coat
Apply a layer of base coat to your nails. This helps protect your nails and create a smooth surface for the stickers to stick on. Remember to let the base coat dry completely.
Choose and prepare stickers
Choose the sticker design you want. You can choose from fresh, hot summer, sweet, cool girl... and choose the corresponding style of stickers. We offer a wide variety of sticker styles, so you can choose your own, or contact us for custom designs!
Then, carefully peel off the sticker once you’ve chosen your style (you can also use tweezers to remove the sticker for extra caution). Be careful not to touch the sticky side with your fingers to keep it clean.
Apply the stickers
After removing the stickers, apply them one by one to the designated nails, gently pressing each sticker into place to secure them. Then, use a nail tool or your fingers to gently press and smooth out any bubbles or wrinkles.
Apply a top coat of nail polish
Seal your look with a top coat, making sure to cover the entire nail from cuticle to tip and cap the end. Let dry for about five minutes. During this time, avoid any activities that may smudge or damage the stickers.
Tips for best results:
Avoid contact with water: After applying the stickers and topcoat, try to avoid getting your hands wet immediately as this will weaken the adhesive.
Store properly: Keep the nail stickers in a cool, dry place to prevent them from drying out or losing their stickiness.
Use high-quality stickers: Choose high-quality nail stickers for better adhesion and longer-lasting results.
With these steps, you should be able to apply nail stickers smoothly and enjoy a stylish look on your nails.
