Can I use Stickers with Gel Polish?
Noticed an increase in floral nails on your social feeds over the last few weeks? You may be part of the lucky few holding the skills (and patience!) to freehand these intricate designs, if freehand painting is something you’re still practicing there is a simpler and faster technique to achieve this sort-after spring look! In this weeks blog were taking a look at our quick guide for incorporating stickers into your Gel Polish treatments.
What will I need?
- Nail file and cuticle tools
- Lint free wipes
- Acetone and dehydrator
- UV/LED lamp
- Gel base and top coat
- Gel colours of your choice
- Tweezers
- Nail Stickers
- Cuticle oil
Step by Step
- Prep the nails
- Apply Base coat and cure
- Apply a single layer of your chosen base colour and cure
- Apply another layer of your base colour and cure
- Using your tweezers delicately apply the nail sticker to the nail, being careful to press down lightly to avoid denting the last layer. Remember at the stage the nail will have a tacky residue, ensure you apply accurately as you wont be able to remove the sticker and try again!
- Finish with application of top coat, curing and don’t forget the Cuticle Oil!
