Nail Wraps - where to buy

15 replies

87mum · 23/05/2025 09:42

I have recently started using the semi cured nail wraps for MyYou but they are starting to work out quite expensive for mix and matching.

Has anyone got any other recommendations of where to buy in the UK that works out slightly cheaper - plain colours and some pretty designs I can use to mix and match?

Holy Grail Nail are good - don't need curing and last 10-14 days. My low-maintenance friend wears them almost constantly.

@Squirrelsnut, do you happen to know if they are easy to get off? Im rubbish at nails but have been looking at these recently but wondered if they’re a bugger to remove!

Oh I'll have a look at these? Do they just work in the same manner in regards to placing and getting them to stretch to fit?

I use normal (non gel) wraps from Lily and Fox(Aus based, free delivery but takes a while) or Nails on the run (UK based, does no cure gel, normal and semi cured gel, stock might be low as she's updating)
Normal wraps i use normal top coat and remove with nail polish remover, gel's i have some stuff that 'dissolves' them, it actually makes the gel go very gummy so can be wiped off with normal nail polish remover (with acetone)

I also like lily and fox, cheap and easy to use.

Lily and fox user here as well, cheap as chips but delivery takes forever

You just stick, trim excess and give the edge a brief file to smooth. She puts a clear top coat on and they look really good.

No, just nail varnish remover, I believe.

Bewitched digits! Same as Lily and fox but uk based so delivery is much quicker and they have sales pretty often so they are about £3 a set! Love them

Will have a look at these, thanks :)

I’ve just started using Lily and Fox as well, but I’m planning to try some from Oh My Gosh Nails next.

They’re a British company so quicker delivery, and they’re still really cheap as well.

I’m a lily and fox Au fan too. I always do two coats of base coat before I apply

What are you using as a base coat? I'm going to try this for my next set

I second Holy Grail Nail, really really easy to use and take off.
