How to Apply Pedicure Gel Nail Strips

Watch the videos below for step-by-step guidance for achieving the ideal pedicure.

Step 1 - Prep

Shape your nails with the nail file. Push back your cuticles. Clean your nails with the Maniac prep pad to remove any oils.

Expert tip: Avoid lotions and oils 1 hour before application.

Step 2 - Select

Hold the sticker sheet above each nail to see which gel polish sticker fits. Choose the right size and peel off the protective plastic of the sticker.

Expert tip:Select a sticker slightly smaller than the width of your nail, when in doubt.

Step 3 - Peel Off

Peel the sticker off the sheet gently and press it onto your nail. Press around the edges.

Expert tip: Avoid touching the sticky side and leave a small gap between your cuticle and the sticker.

NOTE: Ensure that the sticker does not touch the skin or cuticle.

Step 4 - Cut

Fold the excess sticker around the edge of the nail and remove the sticker buffer with the scissors.

Step 5 - Cure and File

Press the sticker around the edge to ensure no air is trapped underneath. Cure your nails under the LED light for 60 seconds. Remove the sticker buffer with the Nail Clipper and then smooth the edges with the file.

Step 6 - Top Coat it Off

Apply the Maniac top coat and cure under the LED light for 120 seconds.

NOTE: Ensure that the top coat does not touch the skin or cuticle.
