Apply the Gel Nail Stickers

Step 1: Choose the Gel Nail Sticker in your size

Hold the sticker sheet above each nail to see which gel nail sticker fits best on the nail. Make sure the Pink Gellac logo is on the right side, so the gel nail sticker is not applied upside down.

Choose the right size and remove the protective film. For the best hold, choose a gel nail sticker that is slightly narrower than your nail width.

Step 2: Apply the Gel Nail Sticker on the nail

Carefully take the gel nail sticker from the sheet and apply it to your nail. Press the gel nail sticker firmly and smooth the edges with the flat side of the woodstick. Important: Leave a small space (1 mm) between the gel nail stickers and your cuticles to prevent the gel nail stickers from coming off prematurely.
