20 best nail wrap brands and stores to check out for pretty, easy-to-use nail stickers

Getting a manicure is a fun, relaxing way to change up your nail looks, but it can be time-consuming and costly when added up over time.

That’s why nail stickers are truly a lifesaver for those of us who want to do our nails at home but don’t have the skills for elaborate nail designs. They are quick, easy, affordable and without any potential mess that nail polishes can cause.

How to apply nail wraps without bubbles so they stay on for longer

Before we get to our top recommendations for nail wraps, here are some tips that can help you apply them without creating any ridges or bubbles and help them stay on for as long as possible.

• Make sure your hands and nails are clean so there’s no dirt, oil, or moisture before you start
• Select the best nail wrap to use on each nail according to your nail size. When in doubt, go for something smaller rather than larger.
• Place the nail sticker onto your nails (just above your cuticle and not on it) and use a cuticle pusher to even out the sticker so there’s no crease nor ridge.
• Hold the nail wrap down for a while to allow it time to adhere to your nail.
• File along your nails in a downward motion to get rid of excess sticker. The excess sticker should break away by itself – do not attempt to tear it away in case you tear into the portion where it’s supposed to be on your nail.
• Applying a layer of top coat will help it last longer. Note that there are top coats that aren’t compatible with certain brands of nail wraps, so always do a test on one nail first to make sure it works before you continue.
• Let the nail wraps set for while. Avoid washing your hands or going for a shower right after application to make sure they stay on for a longer time.

How to remove nail wraps

Most of the time we let them stay on until they come off by themselves, but if for some reason, you need to get them off or want to change up your look, there are a few ways you can do it.

• Soak your nails in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes. The nail stickers should roll off easily as you run your finger on it.
• If they still don’t come off, you can consider wiping them with a nail polish remover a few times.
