HELP / FAQS

Semi-cured gel nail strips represent the forefront of nail technology. Imagine salon-grade gel nail polish condensed into a convenient strip format! Achieve salon-worthy gel nails at home without the hefty price tag or the hassle of waiting for polish to dry.

These strips are 60 % partially cured, providing flexibility, elasticity, and effortless application. Simply peel, stick onto your natural nails, and cure under a UV/LED lamp for just 60 to 120 seconds. The strips conform to the shape of your nails and come in a pack of 30, catering to various nail sizes.
They boast an adhesive back, eliminating the need for soaking, allowing for easy removal whenever desired.

Absolutely not! [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® semi-cured gel nail strips are completely safe and free from 12 toxic chemicals, meaning they do not contain camphor, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, xylene, dibutyl phthalate, ethyl tosylamide, triphenyl phosphate, alcohol, parabens, animal derivatives, or gluten. They are crafted with salon grade gel polish.

Our [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® gel nail strips are not meant to be used for extensions. Instead, they're crafted to offer a thin yet resilient layer of gel on natural nails.

In contrast to acrylics, [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® gel nail strips offer greater flexibility, rendering them unsuitable for nail extensions.

Crafted for application on natural nail lengths, they seamlessly conform to the nail's contours upon curing, ensuring a secure fit without the risk of detachment.

Nail Preparation Steps:

1. Begin by washing your hands to eliminate oils and gently push back cuticles.

2. Use a nail file to lightly roughen the surface of your nails. Then, cleanse your nails with a prep pad and allow them to air dry.

*Tip: (Recommended) Use a primer for improved adhesion and protection.

Application of [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® Gel Nail:

1. Select the appropriate size and remove the clear protective film from the gel nail strips.

2. Peel off the gel nail and carefully apply it to your nail, ensuring a snug fit. Stretch the strip if necessary.

3. Utilize a wooden cuticle stick and roll it along the edges to seal them securely. Trim any excess gel nail and file downward to smooth.

Note: [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® gel nail strips are not designed for extensions; therefore, file them to match the length of your natural nails. Cure under a UV/LED light for 60 to 120 seconds. For enhanced protection, apply a clear UV topcoat.

Good to know:

Use the [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® Gel Nail strips immediately after opening to prevent UV exposure and to maintain their flexibility.

Tip: If the strips seem stiff upon opening, gently heat the strip sheet with a hair dryer for a few seconds to soften them before application.

Remember, [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® Gel Nail strips are composed of genuine gel polish, so they require curing under a UV/LED lamp to harden to the shape of your nails.

The strips are fully cured when they are no longer stretchable, or if you cannot leave an indent on the sticker with your fingernails.

To prevent hair snagging and gel nail strip lifting, prepare nails by using a nail dehydrator or prep pad, followed by primer. Press down the edges of the strips with a cuticle pusher, leaving a small gap between the cuticle and the strip. Apply a UV top coat to seal all edges and avoid water or moisture for at least an hour. If lifting occurs days later, buff the underside of the strips and reseal with a UV top coat. Ensure no skin or cuticle is trapped when sealing.

When nails are properly prepared and the [SHAPED FIT+]™ SnailCure® Gel Nail are applied correctly, they can last for 2 weeks or longer, and in some cases, even up to a month (if sealed properly with UV top coat)!

Just ensure that they are not adhered to any skin or cuticles.

To store them, keep any unused or leftover strips stored in their original black tray, preferably in a cool, dark environment.

Exposure to sunlight or UV/LED light may cause the product to begin curing on the sheet.
