COURTESY IMAGEIf you know me, you know my go-to beauty ~thing~ is a manicure. My camera roll is mostly screenshots of winter nail trends at this point, and I slather my nails in cuticle oil like it’s my GD job. But here’s the thing: Getting a salon-worthy mani every single time is hard, and I don’t always have the time (ahem, patience) to put on a base coat, two color coats, a top coat, and wait for it all to dry to dry. Which is why my manicures now exclusively consist of nail stickers and wraps, which are basically your nail polish’s chiller sibling—just peel, stick, paint on a top coat, and you’re set.

　　Trust me, nail stickers and nail wraps are the answer to your chipped, dented, and finger-printed DIY manis. And because I care, I found the best nail stickers to try tonight, so you can join me on this hassle-free-mani ~journey~ asap. Keep scrolling for the 17 best nail sticker sets on the internet rn.

　　1. Best simple nail stickers

　　Base Coat Nail Art Set

　　$25.00

　　SHOP NOWADVERTISEMENT - CONTINUE READING BELOW

　　These nail stickers are perfect for a minimalist mani. Paint on your fave color for the base (the lighter the color, the more the decals will stand out), then when your nails are totally dry and ready, soak these decals in water for 10-15 seconds to remove them from their backing, and just stick them to your nail. There’s really no better way to rep your sign than with these super-cute astro nail stickers, IMO.

　　2. Best nail tattoos

Apply them just like those temporary tattoos from when you were a kid: Remove the plastic cover, place one face down on your clean nail, and press a damp paper towel on the back for a few seconds. Peel back the sheet to reveal your nail tattoo, and seal it with a glossy topcoat.

Start by quickly cleaning your nails with the included prep pads, place and smooth the stickers right above your cuticle line, then gently file away any excess material until it fits your nail shape. Pro tip: Hold off on applying any creams, lotions, or oils until your stickers are set (usually an hour or so).
