HOW-TO-USE GEL NAIL STICKERS & EXTRA TIPS!
Hey guys, I'm Selina from Gemhour!ย ๐ฎ
Welcome to Gemhour's Blog!ย ๐๐
We've been opened for about 2 months now, and we've received so many questions on how to apply nail stickers and tips on how to apply them well in order for it to last longer!
Well, I'm going to show you how to do them in a right way. So please read it carefully! Don't miss out anything!ย ๐
Before we start, I want to let you guys know that our nail stickers are all made out of REAL GEL, so it's very different to the normal nail stickers. Therefore, UV GEL LAMP is needed after applying them!
And, not to worry! We give GEMHOUR DIY UV LAMP for FREE on every first order :)

Okay, now, let's begin!ย ๐
First, select the design you want to apply.
I know, we provide tons of designs to choose from and you might be having a hard time to choose the design. Just get them all!ย ๐ฐ๐ฐ
ย
Step 1 Prep.
Use the prep pad (it should be in the box. If you don't or you can't find it, send me a DM) to make sure your nails are super neat and clean from those residue.
Also, please make sure your nails are completely dry before applying the stickers!
ย
Step 2 Selecting the right size for your nails
Choose the semicured gel nail sticker that fits your nail size. Gently lift the strip from the sheet starting from the edge.
*TIP: always choose a smaller size than your nails for proper adhesion. I found out that it peeled off easily when I used the same size stickers as my nails.
ย
*NOTE : some gel nail stickers have a clear film on top, so please don't forget to remove them!
ย
Step 3 Stick them onto your nails
Place the strip over the center of your nail and press down firmly starting from the cuticle line. Press!!!!!! Until you can feel that it's perfectly applied.
ย
Step 4 Trim them!
Cut the excess part of the strip. After cutting out the excess, trim them by using a nail file! Make the edges extra smooth.
*TIP : Most people would use nail clippers but I use scissors! It's so much more convenient!!
ย
FINALLY the LAST STEP!
ย
Cure them! Finish by curing the gel for more than 60 seconds. The gel activates under the uv light, so it should harden!
*FINAL TIP : Apply a top coat in order for the nail stickers to last longer!
ย
DONE!!
ย
ย
Since you know how to put them on now, I'll teach you how to remove them in a few steps!ย
Removing is as important as applying them on, so let's not forget how to remove them.ย ๐
ย
Step 1 -ย Apply a drop of cuticle oil or nail polish remover along the nail edges.
*TIP : Leave them on for about 1 minute for it to soak in
ย
Step 2 -ย Use the manicure stick to gently and slowly lift the nail sticker from your nail.ย
ย
*FINAL TIP : Apply nail serum or nail strengthener once you've done removing!
