HOW TO APPLY NAIL ART GEMSUpdated a month ago


Prep Your Gems:

Pour your nail gems into the Gem Plate and give it a gentle shake to spread them between the ridges. This makes picking them up much easier.

Use the dual-ended Gem Applicator to pick up, place, and adjust your gems effortlessly.

Adhesive Options – Choose What Works Best for You:

Option 1: Nail Glue (Strongest Hold)

  • Place a drop of Nail Glue on a piece of plastic.
  • Use an Orange Wood Stick to pick up the glue, then apply a dot on your nail where you'd like the gem to sit. Make sure the glue dot matches the size of the gem.
  • Quickly pick up the gem with the wax side of the Gem Applicator and press it onto the glue.
  • Tip: If the gem pops off, you may not have used enough glue. Adjust the amount so it perfectly fits the size of the gem.

Option 2: 2in1 Base Coat & Extension Gel Adhesive (Long-Lasting Hold)

  • Apply a thin coat of 2-in-1 Base Coat to your entire nail.
  • Use the wax side of the Gem Applicator to place your gems and the metal side to position them exactly where you want.
  • Cure your design under the Ezmio Nail Lamp for 60 seconds.
  • Apply a layer of No Wipe Top Coat, carefully painting around the gems with a nail art brush to avoid dulling their shine.

Option 3: No Wipe Top Coat (For Small, Light Gems)

  • Apply a coat of No Wipe Top Coat to your entire nail.
  • Use the wax side of the Gem Applicator to pick up and place the gems, adjusting their position with the metal side.
  • Cure under the Ezmio Nail Lamp for 60 seconds.
  • Note: This method is best for small, lightweight gems, as the top coat provides a lighter hold than the other options.

Pro Tip: Always handle gems with care and avoid applying top coat directly over them to maintain their sparkle. Happy gemming! 💅💎
