FLOSSé nail wraps are quick and easy to apply, see here for instructions on how to apply.

FLOSSé nail wraps are fast, easy and will take about 10 to 15 minutes to apply. Maybe a bit longer if you decide to add a top coat. The more FLOSSé manicures you apply, the quicker you get.

We recommend showering before applying your FLOSSé wraps, so they have time to adhere and cure to your nails. Showering soon after can cause damage to your new manicure. We also recommend to avoid getting your hands wet for 2 hours after application if possible for best results.

FLOSSé nail wraps generally last between 7 - 14 days, thicker styles like glitter and sequin can sometimes last longer. It depends on how well the wraps are applied and looked after.

Just like traditional nail polish, preparation is key for good results. Your FLOSSé wraps will be most susceptible to damage after extended exposure to water and rough use of your nails.

FLOSSé nail wraps don't like oils from moisturisers, make-up or sunscreen, these can melt your wraps. So be sure to wash your hands with soap after use.

Did you know you can apply a clear top coat for extra protection & to get a longer lasting finish! See below for more info

Yes, absolutely, especially as they require no dry time.

Each set comes with 16 wraps with eight different sizes. Each wrap is quite generous in length and can be cut in half, giving more of the little sizes If required, or save for a second manicure later.

Nail wraps are suitable for short nails but can be difficult to use on bitten nails if they have no edge. For the wraps to adhere properly, there needs to be a nail edge to file and seal the wrap against.

Yes, FLOSSé wraps look great on short nails. For the wraps to adhere properly, there does need to be a nail edge to file and seal the wrap against. Wraps can be difficult to use on bitten nails if they have been bitten right back with no edge.

Yes you can! Applying a top coat can extend the life of your FLOSSé manicure and adds some extra gloss. Be sure to apply it across the filed edge of your nail. Reapply on the edge in a few days as it wears off. Here are some top coats we recommend:

  • INM Out The Door
  • Sephora Brilliance and Shine Top Coat
  • Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails Strengthening Top Coat
  • Rimmel London Finishing Touch Ultra Shine Top Coat
  • Revlon Gel Top Coat
Other top coats may be suitable too. It's a good idea to do a test on one nail first. Check that the top coat doesn't shrink or melt your FLOSSé manicure before applying to all nails.

 

FLOSSé is made of 100% nail polish but it's a lot more fun. It is non-toxic and doesn't contain any of the nasty ingredients some nail polishes do.

FLOSSé ingredients are commonly used in traditional nail polish.
FLOSSé standard nail wrap ingredients: Styrene lsoprene Copolymer, Hydrogenated Poly(C6-20 Olefin), N-Butvl Acetate, Polyacrylic Acid, Ethyl Acetate, Nitrocellulose, Dipentaerythrityl Hexaacrylate, Hydroxypropyl Methacrylate, Hydroxycyclohexyl Phenyl Ketone, Bis-Trimethylbenzoyl Phenylphosphine Oxide

For best results remove by soaking your fingers in reasonably warm water for about 8 minutes. Once soaked, you can slowly peel your FLOSSé nail wraps off. A nail polish remover with Acetone can also be used.

Yes you can.

Yes you can. Transparent FLOSSé nail wraps look great layered on solid and glitter styles. You can also layer on top of traditional nail polish, but it pays to test the nail polish is compatible with your FLOSSé nail wraps first.

Once your FLOSSé manicure is peeled off it can not be used again. FLOSSé nail wraps are manufactured for one time use only.

Once the foil packet is opened we recommend you use your FLOSSé manicure immediately. Any left over wraps can be stored in an airtight zip lock bag. The nail wraps will start to dry and cure when exposed to air.
