Nail Tattoos: How to Apply

What Are Nail Tattoos?

Nail tattoos are a fun and creative way to spice up your manicure! They come in a variety of designs and can be applied quickly and easily with a few simple steps. Nail tattoos are temporary and can last for up to two weeks, depending on how often you wash your hands, how often you apply lotion or oils, and how you care for your nails.

How to Apply Nail Tattoos

Applying nail tattoos is easy and requires only a few simple steps:

Step One: Prep Your Nails

Before beginning, make sure your nails are clean and free of any oils or lotions. Use a nail polish remover to get rid of any old polish and then wash your hands with soap and water. Once your nails are clean and dry, you can begin applying the nail tattoos.

Step Two: Select the Design

Choose the design you want to apply to your nails. If you are using a nail tattoo set, make sure to select the appropriate size for each nail. If you are using a single tattoo, choose a design that will fit the size of your nail.

Step Three: Apply the Tattoo

Once you have selected the design, use tweezers to carefully remove the tattoo from the sheet. Place the tattoo on the nail, making sure it is centered and that the edges are lined up. Press down on the tattoo firmly and then gently rub the back of the tattoo to ensure that it is applied properly. Once the tattoo is secure, you can move on to the next nail.

Step Four: Seal the Tattoo

Once all of your nails have been tattooed, use a top coat to seal the design. Allow the top coat to dry completely before adding a base coat or color polish. Your nail tattoos are now ready to show off!

Tips for Care and Removal

To ensure that your nail tattoos last as long as possible, avoid washing your hands too often and avoid contact with oils and lotions. If you need to remove the tattoos, use a cotton swab and nail polish remover. Gently rub the nail with the cotton swab until the tattoo has been removed.
