How to apply Magic Gel Strip - Pedicure?
Step 1: Prep
Wash hands and clean nails before applying Magic Gel Strip.
Step 2: Select Size
Select the suitable gel strip size for each fingernail, measuring from one side of the fingernail to the other. A slightly smaller gel strip than your natural nail will give a more natural finish.
Step 3: Application
Place the gel strip close to the base of the nail (cuticle side) and press downwards starting from the centre. Press downwards on both sides of the nail, and repeat as needed to smoothen out any air bubbles or wrinkles.
Step 4: Press
Tuck the excess gel strip under your nail. Using the white side of the provided nail file, file off the excess gel strip in a downward motion.
DO NOT cut by filing side-to-side. Trim the middle first, then proceed to file and trim away the sides. Thereafter, use the grey side of the nail file to smoothen and finish the edges. Avoid water for an hour.
