Glaze
How do I prep my nails for Glaze?

Wash your hands with an oil-free soap and water (dish soap works great to remove oils from the skin and nails! This helps Glaze adhere best). Shape the nails and push back cuticles. Use the enclosed Prep Pad to remove any remaining oil and residue. Make sure your nails are completely dry before application.

Do I need a base or top coat?

Because Glaze is an all-in-one product, no additional base coat, nail strengthener or top coat is needed. Should you decide to wear an additional product with Glaze, we cannot guarantee lasting results.

I'm in between sizes. What should I do?

If you’re in between sizes, size down! It’s always better to use a strip that is slightly too small, than too big. If there is any overlap on the skin along the sides or cuticle line, there may be lifting.

What if I mess up a nail? Can I redo it?

Yes! You can reposition the strip if needed, but we recommend minimizing the number of attempts. If you feel the adhesive is weaker after repositioning, it's best to use a new strip for optimal results.

How many times do I need to cure?

Glaze only requires 1 cure for 60 seconds.

My nails feel sensitive while curing. Why is this happening?

If you notice any discomfort during curing, this may indicate a thinning or weakened nail bed. Remove your hand for a moment, and then replace to finish curing.

I'm noticing lifting and/or chipping at the tips. What happened?

Glaze should be trimmed to the exact length of your natural nail prior to curing—please make sure the strip is not extending beyond your nail length, as this can cause lifting and chipping. After curing, take care to file off any remaining excess so that the strip is completely flush to your natural nail.

How can I prevent my hair from getting caught?

Tip 1: Before use, clean the cuticle line neatly. This step is important, as dead skin is a main cause of premature lifting, and hair getting caught. Carefully push back the cuticles and optionally remove your cuticles by trimming with a cuticle nipper or gently buffing them away with the included file. Then, ensure the nails are clear from oils and residue by wiping down with the included prep pad.

Tip 2: Press down all around the cuticle area and entire nail surface using the included manicure stick. Then, press and smooth the entire nail surface with your finger, making sure there is no gap between Glaze and your nail.

How do I remove Glaze?

To remove Glaze, apply cuticle oil (such as our Magic Off+ Remover) to the base of the nail. Using a manicure stick, gently and slowly lift the nail strip from the corner of the cuticle area. Saturate the nail with additional oil to help loosen the adhesive. After a few moments, gently and slowly lift off the Glaze from your nail by pushing from the cuticle line toward the tip of the nail with the manicure stick. Do not rush! If you feel any tension, apply more oil, and allow more time for the adhesive to dissolve.

How should I take care of my nails in between manicures?

Use our Red Therapy line to treat your nails! Make sure to also regularly moisturize your hands and nails with lotion and oils.

How do I store my leftover Glaze? Does it expire?

Before curing your nails, make sure your leftover strips are placed in the black carton in order to prevent premature nail curing if exposed to LED lamp light. Glaze will stay fresh for 12 months after being opened!

    My favorite design thus far

    These nails are so pretty and unique. They lasted pretty much 2 weeks and I couldn’t stop looking at them haha. My big tip for anyone using the glaze nail strips is to press down the edges of the strip with the wooden tool immediately before curing! Makes a huge difference to longevity.

    I got these from the store about a week ago and tried using them this morning.

    What happened with this color? I have been getting nails from you since 11/29/2023 and never really had any problems with the nails. I ordered 43 times and a ton of times from my area stores if I'm in a real rush.

    I always clean, prep, the whole deal and thisis the first time I had a problem, other than rewards. These are the best nails . The It's Science, Duh are really nice colors. I peeled them off the plastic, actually they came off by themselves, they felt a little stiff. I tried a few and stopped. Cured them all. Within a few minutes, they were shrinking and just coming off. I'd like to know what you think about what happened, I've never had a problem like this. I wish I would've taken a picture.

    Thanks in advance.

    Love these nails!

    I just recently did these as my manicure...I had done it before and decide to do again. I think that is what I love about the set, that you get multiple manicure from one set. I have gotten two full manicures so far and probably could get on more...or at least mix with another to make a full set. That make the money you pay for these that much better. I love the effect...you look at them and they are purple then again and they are turquoise...I have gotten so many compliments! They are so durable too! I have told so many people about Dashing Diva!
