UV Gel Pink Sapphires: Glam Application Guide

Quick answer

Prep your nails, select the right size wrap, apply with gentle pressure to avoid bubbles, and cure under a UV lamp for a glam, long-lasting finish.

How to apply UV Gel Pink Sapphires for a glam look

1. Prep your nails: Push back cuticles, gently buff the nail surface, and wipe with alcohol to remove oils. This ensures the wrap adheres evenly and lasts longer. Skipping the alcohol wipe is the most common cause of early lifting.
2. Select the right size wrap: Match each wrap to your nail width. The set includes 22 wraps in graduated sizes; pick the one that covers the nail without overlapping skin or cuticle. If the wrap is too large, file the excess after application—never stretch it to fit.
3. Apply the wrap smoothly: Peel the wrap from the backing, center it at the cuticle line, and press outward toward the tip. Use gentle, firm pressure to eliminate air pockets. Work slowly; a bubble trapped under the wrap will show as a dull spot after curing.
4. File the free edge: Fold the excess wrap over the nail tip and file downward in one direction to seal the edge. This prevents peeling and gives a clean, rounded finish. Use a fine-grit file and avoid sawing back and forth, which can fray the wrap.
5. Cure under a UV lamp: Place your hand under a UV or LED lamp for the recommended time (typically 60–90 seconds). The gel hardens and locks the color in place. Do not touch the wrap before curing; fingerprints can create a permanent haze.
