Find it difficult to apply nail polish neatly? Want to stay up to date with the latest nail art designs quickly and easily? Don’t have time or money for expensive salon visits?
Nail wraps are self adhesive stickers made of real nail polish – simply choose the correct size for your nail, peel and stick. File off the excess and apply a top coat for extra durability! They don’t require curing and last for up to 2 weeks depending on what your hands get up to!
Our Crystal and Gel are applied in the same way! Simply cure the Gel wraps for 120 seconds and the Crystal wraps for 60 seconds with our UV/LED lamp to give a rock hard long lasting finish.
For our Classic Mani or Pedi wraps, Wide Fit and Mini Me ranges, 16 nail wraps are included in each pack.
For our Crystal or Gel Manicure ranges, 20 nail wraps are included in each pack.
For our Gel Pedicure range, 32 nail wraps are included in each pack.
Our Classic and Wide Fit wraps will last up to two weeks with a topcoat if they are applied correctly.
Our Crystal and Semi Cured Gels last approximately 3 weeks. It’s all dependent on what you do with your hands really – remember if you’ve got a stunning mani, your nails are jewels, not tools!
We’d also always suggest changing your wraps at least every 3 weeks and giving your nails a bit of time to breathe.
No! The wraps and gels work well with gel, acrylic and shellac nails.
Our Classic Wraps (including Wide Fit and Kids Wraps) do not contain gel – they are made from normal nail polish so are completely fine for gel allergy sufferers.
Our Gel wraps and our Crystal wraps are both made of gel, and so if you have a gel allergy, it is best to be cautious with these.
We only recommend our MAGIC GLOSS TOP COAT, ULTIMATE SHINE TOP COAT andMATTE TOP COAT for use with our wraps.
Yes, all wraps are vegan and have never been tested on animals.

They are quite similar, in that they are both made from gel and both need to be cured with our UV lamp.
Our Crystal Wraps are a little thinner and stretchier, so many of our customers find them helpful if they have slightly wider nails.
Gel Wraps are a bit thicker, and cure to give a harder finished mani.
While both styles are likely to last longer than our Classic Wraps (as they are made of gel), the Gel Wraps are also likely to last a little longer than the Crystals as they are that bit thicker.

Application and Removal

HOW TO USE MAGIC REMOVER
We always recommend applying your nail wraps around bed time, so the adhesive has a chance to set overnight. This really helps with durability! The longer the wraps have to set, the better! And try not to expose your hands to water in the 4 hours after application, to give the adhesive time to set. We’d always suggest using gloves for washing up.
Our wraps can last for ages, but we'd always suggest changing your wraps at least every 3 weeks and giving your nails a bit of time to breathe.
When applying top coats, take care not to shake the bottle as this can introduce air bubbles.

Thin layers are better than thick layers.

Not every top coat is suitable for every person (we all have different nail chemistry!). If you do not get the results you are expecting with your top coat, it may be worth switching to a UV curable top coat - like ULTIMATE SHINE TOP COAT, or switching to a non-UV curable top coat - like MAGIC GLOSS TOP COAT.
If you are having difficulty trimming, the best way is to turn your hand over, and trim using nail clippers from the palm side of the hand, then if needed, very gently file in a downwards motion to finish (this may not be necessary with practice if you can trim right up to the nail).

A trick some of our customers do is to cut the wraps a little bit past the nails and then fold the overhang and tuck it in under the tip until it “sets” a little. Once it has had a little while to set, and adhere to the very tips of your nails, you can then start filing!

Tips and Tricks

This is often because the wrap is too cold, meaning that the adhesive hasn’t reached maximum stickiness! Try using a hairdryer to warm them up (very short blast of a few seconds), or try rubbing them on a heater for a few seconds , etc. This will soften the adhesive and make it easier to stick.
This is usually due to application technique. As with many things, the prep is important.

Wash your hands with dish soap to remove all oils. Then push back your cuticles or remove your cuticles with CUTICLE MAGIC. Any oil / cream / sunscreen on your nails will cause the wrap to peel off.

Make sure you the place wrap so that it is not touching your cuticle or skin. If there is overlap on your skin or cuticle, the wrap is more likely to peel off. Choose a wrap that is very slightly smaller than your nail for best results. After applying the wrap, press down thoroughly all over the nail surface. That adhesive needs to stick well, so the more you press, the better the adhesion! Press, press and press again!

Don’t forget to press in the corners of your nail beds too (using a wooden cuticle pusher can help).

Finally seal in your wraps with a good quality top coat.

We recommend our ULTIMATE SHINE TOP COAT and MAGIC GLOSS TOP COAT.

Avoid using quick dry top coats.
Make sure to follow one of the removal techniques outlined on the INSTRUCTIONS for each of our products.

Perhaps the easiest removal method is using MAGIC REMOVER.

Whilst it is tempting to do (especially if you want to get that next style on the go!) peeling the wraps off can damage your natural nail by tugging at the surface.

If you’ve peeled and need to repair you nails, try lots of nourishing hand cream, use CUTICLE DOCTOR twice daily, try using biotin vitamin supplements and apply nail strengthener.

Let any damage grow out before using nail wraps again.
Our glitter wraps are a bit thicker than a solid or plain patterned wrap, because of all the glitter in them. If you are having problems applying, then try warming them up by giving them a short blast with a hair dryer. This will make them more flexible and easier to put on.
We know, it can be a bit fiddly but here’s a tip to remove all at once – using a piece of sellotape, place across the middle section of the wrap – the bit that all of the wraps are attached to – and then peel off! Voila, all of the plastic should come off!
Try applying the wraps to your non dominant hand first, then your dominant hand, but leave both thumbs until the end, as you will use your thumb nails for peeling off wraps etc and these wraps are the most likely to be damaged in the process of you applying to your other fingers.
Sometimes wraps can shrink back a fraction by the following day if they have been stretched whilst putting them on or whilst filing. Make sure you don’t stretch them too much, and trimming the wrap using nail clippers rather than filing the excess off can sometimes be better (as filing can sometimes stretch and fray the tip of the wrap).

Some quick dry top coats can also cause shrinkage, so make sure you test the top coat before using!
When taking off each piece of plastic film, put it down on the silver foil packaging – it will stick to that instead of your fingers.
Sunscreen, hand creams and body moisturizer can sometimes cause the nail wraps to become soft and sticky. Sealing your nail wraps in with a top coat will prevent this and help your nail wraps last longer.
Tip wear can happen! Sometimes no matter how careful we are, the tips of our nails can get a lot of wear and just rub off. Glitter wraps are usually a bit better for this because of their thickness, as are Gels and Crystal wraps.

If you are a classic wrap user, incorporating a UV top coat like ULTIMATE SHINE TOP COAT – and when you apply, capping the tips (putting a little extra across the very tip of your nail) can help to reduce the tip wear.
If your tips have worn slightly, you can gently file off the worn tip, and reapply a layer of top coat to extend the wear time of your wraps.

Gel Allergies

Our Classic Wraps (including Wide Fit and Kids Wraps) do not contain gel – they are made from normal nail polish so are completely fine for gel allergy sufferers.

Our Gel wraps and our Crystal wraps are both made of gel, and so if you have a gel allergy, it is best to be cautious with these. Many of our customers with gel allergy are able to use our gel products as they are completely dry and no wet gel actually touches your skin or nail.

Additionally because they are stickers, only the adhesive on the back of the sticker is actually in contact with your nails – however everyone is different and we would always recommend patch testing to be sure.
