Preparation is Key

Before you start, ensure your nails are clean, dry, and free of any oils. Buff your nails lightly to create a smooth surface for better adhesion. Also, have your tools ready: nail polish remover, cuticle pusher, nail file, and a timer (for the perfect drying time).

Choose the Right Base

Start with a base coat to protect your nails and provide a smooth surface for your Color Street strips. We recommend using the Color Street Base Coat & Top Coat for the best results. Apply a thin layer, let it dry for 30 seconds, then proceed with your strips.

Applying Color Street Strips: The Perfect Technique

Applying Color Street strips is an art form. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you achieve salon-quality results every time:

Peel off the strip from the backing, starting from the corner.
Position the strip on your nail, starting from the cuticle. Press down gently, using a cuticle pusher or orange wood stick to smooth out any bubbles or wrinkles.
Use the edge of the cuticle pusher to trim the excess strip from the tip of your nail.
File the excess strip from the bottom of your nail using a nail file. Be careful not to file too much and expose the nail bed.
Use the Color Street Nail Buffer to lightly buff the tip of your nail, ensuring a smooth, seamless finish.

Timing is Everything

After applying your strips, set a timer for 30 seconds. This allows the strips to adhere properly to your nails. Once the timer goes off, use the Color Street Nail Buffer to lightly buff the surface of the strips. This helps to activate the adhesive and ensures a strong bond.

Adding Glitter and Bling

Want to add some sparkle to your manicure? Here's a trick for applying glitter polish without the mess:

Paint a thin layer of clear polish onto your nail.
While the polish is still wet, dip your nail into a small dish of glitter. The clear polish will act as a glue, picking up the glitter and adhering it to your nail.
Once dry, seal with a top coat to lock in the glitter and add shine.

Removing Color Street Strips

When it's time to remove your Color Street strips, follow these steps for a hassle-free process:

Soak a cotton pad in nail polish remover.
Place the soaked cotton pad on your nail and wrap it with foil. Leave it on for 10-15 minutes to allow the polish to soften.
Gently peel off the strip, starting from the cuticle. If any residue remains, use a cuticle pusher to scrape it off.
Wash your hands and apply cuticle oil to moisturize your nails and cuticles.
