Semi-Cured Gel Nails How To Guide
Apply Your Semi-Cured Nail Wraps
1Clean & Prep Your Nails
Wash and dry your hands thoroughly to remove oils and residue. Gently push back your cuticles, lightly buff the nail surface if needed, then wipe each nail clean with the prep pad.
2Choose Your Sizes
Choose the strip size that best fits each nail. For the cleanest finish and best wear, the strip should sit just inside your nail edges without touching the skin or cuticle.
3Apply Your Strips
Place the strip just above your cuticle and press it down from the centre outward. Smooth firmly across the nail and edges to remove any wrinkles or air bubbles.
4Trim & Cure
Trim away the excess strip, then file gently downward in one direction to shape the edge. Cure under a UV or LED lamp for 60–90 seconds until fully hardened.
5Finish & Set
Give your nails a final file if needed, and apply a top coat for extra gloss and wear if desired. Avoid water, oils, creams, or heavy hand use for about an hour after application.
Remove Your Semi-Cured Nail Wraps
1Loosen the Edges
Using a wooden stick or cuticle stick, gently lift the edge of the strip near the side of your nail. Apply a few drops of cuticle oil or polish remover underneath to help soften the adhesive.
2Gently Lift & Remove
Slowly work the stick back and forth while lifting the strip away from the nail. Add more oil if needed and avoid pulling or scraping forcefully.
3Clean & Nourish
Wipe your nails clean to remove any remaining adhesive, then apply cuticle oil or hand cream to keep your nails and skin feeling healthy and hydrated.
