FAQs
How long do the MoYou London Gel Nail Strips last?
Typically, the strips can last up to two weeks with proper application and care.
Can I use a top coat with these gel strips?
Yes, applying a top coat can help extend the life of the gel strips and provide extra shine.
How do I remove the gel nail strips?
Gently lift the edge of the strip with a cuticle stick and peel it away slowly. You can also soak your nails in warm water to loosen the adhesive.
Are these strips safe for my natural nails?
Yes, when applied and removed correctly, the strips are designed to be safe for natural nails.
Can I apply these strips over existing nail polish?
No, it's best to apply the gel strips directly to clean, bare nails for optimal adhesion.
What if the strip is too big or too small?
Choose a strip size slightly smaller than your nail and stretch it a bit to fit. For sizes that are too big, file off the excess.
Do I need any special tools for application?
No, you only need a nail file (provided with the strips) and possibly a cuticle stick or wooden tool for lifting the edges.
Troubleshooting
Gel strip is not sticking properly.
Ensure your nails are clean and dry before application. Press firmly on the strip to ensure it adheres correctly. Avoid touching the adhesive side of the strip.
Bubbles or wrinkles appear after application.
Carefully smooth out any bubbles or wrinkles during application. If bubbles persist, try removing the strip and reapplying it, ensuring it is properly aligned.
Gel strips are lifting at the edges.
Make sure you have sealed the edges by filing the excess strip properly. Also, avoid excessive water exposure and apply a top coat for extra protection.
Difficulty removing the strips.
Gently lift the edge of the strip with a cuticle stick or wooden tool and slowly peel it away. If necessary, soak your nails in warm water for a few minutes before removal.
