Gel Nail Stickers, Nail Charms and More: The Diverse World of Nail Stickers
A guide to gel, adhesive, metallic and film nail stickers, their application methods and precautions for protecting nails during use and removal.
Nail stickers are a form of nail art that can protect weakened nails from external factors. Their lower price compared with other products also makes them popular with many people. Using stickers provides a much wider range of styles to choose from, including floral nail stickers, character nail stickers and even 3D nail stickers.
1. Gel Nail Stickers
Gel nail stickers are recommended for people who want a manicured-nail effect. They are attached by placing a semisolid gel substance, similar to sticker gel, between the nail and the sticker.
2. Adhesive Nail Stickers
Simply peel off the sticker and apply it to the nail as desired. One advantage is that adhesive stickers can be applied without anyone else's help.
3. Metallic Nail Stickers
These stickers are made of metal and are often used to give the nails a distinctive accent. They are notable for the variety of nail charms that can be attached alongside them.
4. Nail Films
These stickers are made using polymer clay or film. They are generally applied to the nails using nail polish or nail adhesive. With a little practice, they are easy to apply and remove, making them popular for DIY nail art.
When using adhesive nail products, do not leave them on for more than a week. If they get wet while attached, dry thoroughly underneath the nails to prevent weakening. Because the stickers adhere strongly, take care not to damage the nail surface when removing them, and give your nails breaks between applications.
