How Do Nail Wraps Work? Glaize stick-on gel nail wraps
Nail wraps have become one of the easiest ways to get salon-quality nails at home — but how do they actually work? If you’ve ever wondered what makes them so quick, long-lasting, and glossy, this guide breaks it down.
What are nail wraps?
Nail wraps are pre-shaped gel or polish coatings that you apply directly to your natural nails. Instead of painting or curing gel, you simply stick them on and go.
At Glaize, our wraps are made from a unique gel formulation, developed in the UK, that delivers a high-shine, salon-gel finish without UV lamps, toxins, or messy removal.
How do they work?
Here’s the science behind the simplicity:
- Adhesive technology - each wrap has a thin, pressure-activated adhesive backing that bonds to your nail when pressed firmly.
- Flexible gel layer - the gel layer gives that signature glossy finish while flexing naturally with your nails, preventing cracks or chips.
- Protective barrier - once applied, the wrap acts as a shield, helping to prevent everyday wear and tear, meaning fewer breaks and more growth.
Why Glaize wraps are different
Not all nail wraps are created equal. Glaize stick-on gels are made using patented made-to-measure technology, custom-sized to fit your nails, meaning no gaps, no overlaps, no messy edges. We also offer free resizing to ensure your made-to-measure gels fit perfectly.
They’re also HEMA and TPO-free, meaning they’re safe for sensitive nails and skin. And when you’re ready for a new look, removal is damage-free. They’re also the only stick-ons to be made in the UK.
The bottom line
Nail wraps work by combining smart adhesive design with advanced gel technology, giving you salon-quality nails in minutes without damage, toxins, or UV lamps.
With Glaize, you get a custom-fit, glossy manicure that lasts up to 14 days, all from the comfort of your home.
