Semi-cured gel nails are made from high quality PET film containing real gel nail polish semi-cured into a flexible sticker form. It is comprised of a base coat, gel colour and top coat. The semi-cured gel nail sticker adheres seamlessly to your natural nail with a non-toxic medical adhesive. Once exposed to UV light the gel nail sticker cures and hardens.Ā
- If you have any nail polish on your nails first remove everything so you are working with clean natural nails.
- Smooth the top of the nail, prep to desired length, shape and push back cuticles.
- Clean nails with an alcohol pad and wait for nails to dry.
- Choose the right size gel nail sticker by comparing the nail to the various sizes. Peel off the clear protective film that’s on the gel nail sticker.
- Place the gel nail strip on the fingernail gently pressing it down. Since these gel nail stickers are flexible you can stretch them slightly to fit the nail.
- Smooth down the edges using the wooden stick applying light pressure to seal it.
- Cut off the excess to match your nail length.
- Cure for 60 seconds. We recommend curing twice with the 6w UV LED Nail Lamp to ensure a stronger manicure.
- Use a nail file to even out any rough edges.
The time will depend on each person and whether you are also going to still prep your nails. If your nails are already natural, cut and shaped to your wishes then simply applying and curing the gel nail stickers won’t take very long. In general estimate about 30 min.
- Use the wooden stick to lift the edge of the semi-cured gel nail sticker at the cuticle side and gently use a back and forth motion to remove it, option to use cuticle oil or a natural oil like olive oil to help with loosening the adhesive.
- Clean nails with cotton pad to remove any excess adhesive, we suggest using a natural oil on the cotton pad or an alcohol swap.

No, semi-cured gel nails are not meant for lengthening your nails. For best results they should be cut to your nail length.
No, the semi-cured gel nail stickers need to be cured to harden and adhere to your natural nail.
One box of semi-cured gel nails is meant for one application.
It contains 20 semi-cured gel nail stickers of various sizes to choose from to ensure you can find a size that matches each nail.
However, depending on your nails you could try get two uses out of one box. If a semi-cured gel nail strip is a few millimeters too narrow for a finger gently stretch it out to get fuller coverage. Some of us have managed to successfully get two uses out of one box and others not, it just depends on your nails.
We all have different sized nails and if a specific semi-cured gel nail sticker is a little bit narrow you can gently stretch it out a bit to get fuller coverage on the nail.
They can last up to 2 weeks if applied correctly and treated with care, sometimes longer depending on how much work you do with your hands.Ā
