FAQs

Semi-cured gel nail stickers are crafted from a unique blend of gel polymers that have been partially cured under UV light. This semi-cured state ensures the stickers are flexible and easy to apply, while still delivering the durability and high-gloss finish of a traditional gel manicure once fully cured.

What’s the Difference Between Gel Nail Stickers and Regular Nail Wraps?

The main difference between gel nail stickers and regular nail wraps lies in their composition and finish. Gel nail stickers are made from semi-cured gel, providing a glossy, long-lasting finish that mimics a salon gel manicure. Regular nail wraps, usually made from vinyl or other flexible materials, do not require curing and typically offer less durability and a shorter-lasting finish compared to gel nail stickers.

What Should I Do Before I Apply Gel Nail Stickers to My Nails?

To achieve the best results when applying gel nail stickers, follow these steps:

1. Clean Your Nails: Remove any existing polish and wash your hands thoroughly to eliminate oils and dirt.
2. Dry Your Nails: Make sure your nails are completely dry before application.
3. Shape Your Nails: Trim and file your nails to the desired shape.
4. Push Back Cuticles: Gently push back your cuticles to ensure a smooth application surface.
5. Use a Prep Wipe: Cleanse your nails with an alcohol wipe or nail cleanser to remove any remaining residue.

Do I Need a Base or Topcoat?

For optimal results, applying a base coat is not necessary with Oliryah's gel nail stickers. However, a topcoat can be applied after curing to enhance shine and extend wear time, although the stickers are designed to be durable and shiny on their own.

How Long Do These Gel Nail Stickers Last?

Oliryah gel nail stickers typically last up to two weeks, depending on nail care and lifestyle. Proper application and aftercare can help extend their longevity. Oliryahs gel nail stickers can even last up to more than two weeks if applied properly.

What is the Curing Time, and Can I Cure Shorter or Longer?

The recommended curing time for Oliryah gel nail stickers is about 60 seconds under a UV or LED lamp. Curing for the suggested time ensures the stickers fully harden and adhere properly. Curing for a shorter time might result in incomplete curing, while longer curing times do not provide additional benefits and can potentially overheat the gel.

How to Store Gel Nail Stickers?

Store your gel nail stickers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and UV light exposure. Keeping them in their original packaging or a sealed container can help maintain their quality and prevent premature curing.

How to Prevent Gel Nail Stickers from Coming Off Easily?

To prevent your gel nail stickers from coming off easily, follow these tips:

1. Ensure Proper Nail Preparation: Clean, dry, and prep your nails as mentioned above.
2. Apply Stickers Correctly: Make sure to press down firmly on the stickers to eliminate any air bubbles and ensure good adhesion.
3. Avoid Excessive Water Exposure: Minimize prolonged exposure to water, especially in the first few hours after application.
4. Use a Topcoat: Applying a topcoat can help seal the edges and provide additional protection.
5. Handle with Care: Avoid using your nails as tools and handle tasks that may cause wear and tear with care.
