Nail design with stickers
Before starting the design, be sure to process the nail plate and remove the cuticle. How to do a manicure at home is shown here.
The next step is choosing stickers with a suitable pattern. You can buy them at any manicure accessories store. They are called sliders or water-based decals because they must first be immersed in water for a few minutes to be fixed to the nail to release them from the substrate. They can be used to decorate all nails, but more often the stickers are used for 1-2, covering them partially or completely. This creates striking accents in nail design.
Let’s get started.
1. Degrease the nail plate. Apply base coat, then apply color gel polish and top coat. Bake each layer separately in a lamp for 1-3 minutes, depending on its device
2. Match nail art stickers with suitable pattern, cut to shape and length of the nail. The nail on which you will place the sticker must be covered with a light varnish, against such a background the drawing will look bright and contrasting
3. Dip the sticker into water for a few seconds, then use tweezers to peel off the color layer from the base
4. Apply the sticker to the nail, smooth out gently. Remove excess around the edges with pliers.
5. If there are areas on the edges that are not covered with a pattern, carefully paint over them with a thin brush, using varnish to match
6. Apply the make-up coat. A dedicated sticker top will work best
7. Do not forget to paint over well the end of the nail with the top, otherwise the film with the pattern will cling and quickly deteriorate. Dry the coating in the lamp
Stylish nail design is ready! You can experiment from time to time, emphasizing your individual style, because there are countless options for stickers. The whole decorating process is shown in more detail in the video of nail design.
