Gel Wrap Questions

💅 What exactly are semi-cured gel nail stickers?

Think of them as the perfect middle ground between regular nail polish and salon gels. They're flexible gel strips that are 60% cured—meaning they're soft enough to shape onto your nails, but once you cure them under a UV lamp, they harden like salon gel for long-lasting wear.

⏳ How long do they last?

With proper prep and care, your mani can last up to 2 weeks without chips or peeling. Some customers even get 3 weeks out of them—hello, low-maintenance glam!

🔦 Do I need a UV lamp?

Yes! A UV or LED lamp is a must to cure (set) the gel and lock in that glossy, hardened finish. No lamp, no magic.

🫶 Are they safe for my nails?

Absolutely—when used correctly. Our semi-cured strips are gentle on your nails, especially compared to acrylics or constant polish changes. And since there’s no harsh filing or glue involved, your natural nails can breathe easy.

📎 How do I apply them?

It’s super easy:

  1. Clean and prep you nails
  2. Choose the right size strip
  3. Stick it on and trim the excess (press the edges down flat using the wooden stick provided)
  4. Cure under the UV lamp
  5. File and you're done! We also have a video available on our How To page.
  6. Optional: For a prolonged shine, add a layer of top coat and cure.

💧 How do I remove them?

No drills, no damage. Just gently lift the edges with a wooden stick and soak off with some cuticle oil or acetone-free remover. Slow and steady does the trick.

✨ Can I use them on top of gel or acrylic nails?

Definitely! Just make sure the surface is clean and smooth. They’re great for switching up your style without a full salon appointment.

✂️ What if the strips don’t fit my nails exactly?

No stress—you can trim them to size or gently stretch them to fit. They’re super flexible and designed to mold to your nail shape.

♻️ Are they reusable?

Once cured and removed, they can't be reused. But each set comes with extras, so you’ve got some backup options!

🎨 Can I mix and match designs?

Of course—get creative! Combine sets, mix patterns, and make your own nail art story. That’s the fun of it.

⚠️ What if I’m allergic to gel nails?

Our semi-cured gel stickers are formulated to be hypoallergenic and are generally safe for sensitive skin and nails. They’re free from many of the harsh ingredients found in traditional salon gels. However, please note: if you choose to use a top coat, it does contain ingredients that can cause irritation or allergic reactions. If you’ve had previous sensitivities to gel products, we recommend doing a patch test or consulting a dermatologist before use—just to be safe.
