Achieving salon-quality nails at home has never been easier with Pop of Color Amsterdam. Our gel manicures are quick, affordable, and look stunning—but there are a few tricks to ensure you get the best results.
Here are 5 must-know tips to make your at-home manicure experience seamless and long-lasting!
1. Skip the Hand Cream Before You Start
We get it—hydrated hands are the goal. But before applying your Pop of Color manicure, avoid using greasy creams or lotions. They can prevent the manicure strips from adhering properly to your nails. Save the moisturizing for after your manicure is cured!
2. Size Matters
Not sure which size strip to use? Always choose a size slightly smaller than your nail. A snug fit ensures better adhesion and a cleaner finish. Pro tip: filing off excess is easier than fixing overlap!
3. Press at the Cuticles
For the smoothest application, press each manicure strip firmly at the cuticles before curing it under the lamp. This step locks the strip in place and ensures a seamless bond with your natural nail.
4. Keep Strips Safe Between Hands
When working on one hand, remember to store the unused strips back in their black pouch. This prevents them from hardening while you’re curing the other hand under the UV lamp.
5. Position Matters Under the Lamp
Make sure all your nails are fully positioned under the lamp. Every corner of each nail needs UV exposure to ensure the manicure cures completely and lasts up to 14 days.
Bonus Tip: Care Makes Perfect
Once your manicure is applied, maintain its brilliance by reapplying the top coat after seven days. This extra layer keeps your nails looking fresh and minimizes the chance of wear and tear.
At Pop of Color Amsterdam, we want you to achieve perfect nails every time, and applying your gel nail wraps doesn’t have to be complicated! With these simple steps, your Pop of Color manicure will not only look salon-perfect but also last longer than ever.
