The way they work is quite easy. You begin by first shaping your nails and pushing back your cuticles with the included nail file and wooden manicure stick. Next, use one of the prep pads to ensure nails are free of any oils and residue. They must be completely dry before application. Once you've prepped, figure out the size by holding the sheet over your nail, and gently lift the strip from the sheet starting from the edge.

Now comes the fun part, which is to place the strip over the center of your nail, beginning at the cuticle line and pressing outward. Once you've placed the strip, remove the protective film and press down on your nail firmly from center and side to side. Follow up by trimming the strip flush to your nails using nail scissors or clippers. Finish off by curing under the LED light for 45 seconds and filing so there isn't any Glaze exceeding beyond your nail length. And there you go!

Once you've nailed it (see what we did there?), nail wraps will certainly become a favorite way to rock a fresh new set of nails every two weeks or so – whether you're in the mood for a traditional hue or a creative set that shows off your wild personality.
