Apply nail polish to your nail and let it completely dry. You can use a fast dry top coat over nail polish or bare nails to create a flat surface which can help product stick better. Make sure nail is dry and free of oily residues before applying product.

Peel product from backing sheet and lightly push to the nail paying attention near skin and the tips of nails. You can cut the product to help form to the tip, sides and curvature of the nail. If small pieces remain inside a stencil, try peeling faster from different directions or flip and stick/peel the stencil to the back of the sheet to pull out the small pieces.

Apply fresh or thinned nail polish across the product. Shimmer or metallic nail polishes work better than cremes. You can apply nail polish with a sponge, like ombre design, to prevent bleeding for cleaner lines. If needed, remove extra nail polish from your skin by using a flat brush dipped in nail polish remover.

Remove product immediately after applying nail polish using your fingers, tweezers or nippers while the polish is still wet. For better results, pull the tape following its edges and stencils following the pattern.

Wait until your design has completely dried and apply fresh or thinned top coat. To prevent smearing, apply using the least amount of strokes and hold your brush parallel to your nail. If you want to leave stickers on your nails, seal them with 1-2 thick layers of top coat.
