Dashing Diva nail strips are a type of nail art that can be applied to your nails without using polish or glue. They come in different styles, colors, and effects, such as GLOSS, GLAZE, and GLOW.
Dashing Diva nail strips are a convenient and easy way to get a salon-quality manicure at home. There are two types of nail strips: GLOSS and GLAZE. Both are gel-based and last for up to 14 days, but they have different application methods.
- GLOSS nail strips are self-adhesive and do not require any LED light or heat to activate. To use them, first clean your nails with the prep pads. Then, choose the correct sticker for each nail. Try to place the sticker near the cuticle line. Then, trim any excess product and smooth out the bubbles with your fingers.
- GLAZE nail strips are LED light-cured and require a mini lamp (sold separately) to harden. To use them, follow the same steps as GLOSS. First, place your nail under the small LED lamp. Keep it there for 45 seconds. Make sure to cut off any extra stuff before doing this.

How to remove dashing diva nail strips
Dashing Diva nail strips are a type of gel nail strip that can last up to 14 days on your nails. They are easy to apply and remove and do not require UV light or soak-off removal. You can remove the GLOSS strips by applying a drop of polish remover or oil at your cuticle and gently peeling them off. You can remove the GLAZE strips by soaking your nails in warm water for 10 minutes and then peeling them off.
There are different methods to remove Dashing Diva nail strips, but here are some general steps that you can follow:
- First, gently peel up the edge of the nail strip from one corner of your nail. Do not rip it off quickly or forcefully, as this may damage your natural nail.
- Next, dip a cotton swab or pad in acetone nail polish remover and rub it under the lifted edge of the nail strip. This will help dissolve the adhesive and make it easier to peel off.
- Then, slowly peel off the nail strip while applying more acetone as needed. You can also use a wooden stick or a cuticle pusher to help lift the nail strip from your nail.
- Finally, wash your hands and moisturize your nails and cuticles. You can also buff your nails lightly to smooth out any rough edges or residue.
