What You'll Need
Before you start, gather your materials:
- Color Street nail polish strips
- Nail file or nail clipper
- Nail buffer
- Nail polish remover and cotton pads
- Orange wood stick or cuticle pusher
- Scissors or nail nipper
Preparing Your Nails
Start by preparing your nails for the Color Street strips:
- Trim your nails to your desired length and shape using a nail file or clipper.
- Buff your nails lightly to remove any shine and create a better surface for the strips to adhere to.
- Use a cuticle pusher or orange wood stick to gently push back your cuticles.
- Clean your nails with nail polish remover to remove any oils or residue.
Choosing and Preparing Your Strips
Now that your nails are prepared, it's time to choose and prepare your Color Street strips:
- Choose the color and design that you like from the Color Street collection.
- Remove the protective film from the strip, leaving the clear film on the back.
- Peel the strip from the backing, keeping it face down on a flat surface.
Applying the Strips
Applying the Color Street strips is the most crucial step. Follow these instructions for the best results:
- Hold the strip by the clear film and place it on your nail, starting from the cuticle end.
- Press the strip firmly onto your nail, using your thumb or a nail file to smooth out any bubbles or wrinkles.
- Trim the excess strip from the top of your nail using scissors or a nail nipper.
- Use the edge of the strip to file your nail to the desired length and shape.
- Repeat the process for each nail, ensuring that the strips are applied evenly.
Sealing and Finishing
After applying the strips, seal them in place for longer-lasting results:
- Use the Color Street Sealer to paint a thin layer onto each nail, allowing it to dry for 60 seconds.
- Apply a second coat of sealer, allowing it to dry for 60 seconds.
- Gently buff your nails with a nail buffer to remove any excess sealer and create a smooth, shiny finish.
Congratulations! You've just achieved a beautiful, long-lasting manicure with Color Street. Enjoy your stunning nails for up to 10 days with proper care. Don't forget to remove your Color Street strips using nail polish remover when you're ready for a new look.
