I'm a new Color Street Stylist but have been wearing it for over 1½ years, so I know quite a few tricks. Mineral Fusion works wonderful on Glitters, especially with nail clips or the hot water bowl & a cap full of Mineral Fusion in a Ziploc bag. OPI Plumping Top Coat works beautifully so does OPI Matte Top Coat. You can use a full size nail file to guide your extra set in without having to break them apart. When layering put the first set just a tad away from your cuticles and the other set up against your cuticles, this is the shelf method & prevents your nails from getting caught in your hair. Or if you place them on top of each other take a q-tip dipped in nail polish remover and gently smooth out each multi layer nail so that it won't catch in your hair. One last helpful tip: take off the plastic strip, pull the strip off the backing & place it on the backing about halfway down (this gives you better control with placement), use the same principle for the other hand but take off the silver tab & place the strip with the least amount on the backing. Good Luck and I hope that these tips help!

What is the purpose of layering?? Is one set not enough for lasting look?

I just used the dashing Diva, streeps and they feel so cheap and they didn't adhere to my nails at all! It's so sad, because I'm going somewhere and I wanted to look good. They feel thin and cheap, and won't stick !

If mine chip and are still attached or start to peel up from the back after one week of wearing, I pull it up gently and put a bit of clear polish under it and then press it down.

You are such a beautiful woman! You truly have a gift - talking to people and capturing their attention. Thank you. And I think I’m gonna try to find this color myself and get a bunch. I always do pink or some kind of pink, but I really like this color that you used! I always have to have some kind of sparkle added. ❤️

If you wanna REALLY change up a solid, put on a Matte Clear Top Coat on them and it'll change your entire manicure!!! I have done it so many times and LOVE it so much!

To remove, I highly recommend GelMoment’s Flake Off! Much gentler on your nails! It applies like a regular polish… you leave it on for 3-5 mins, then use a cuticle pusher to very easily swipe off the polish. Easy peasy!

I just started selling them. I started wearing them in November 2020. It was so fun to do. I kept buying all the colors! I love Color Street 🤗

Cut them in half instead of tearing before applying. Makes it easier to use one strip for one nail

Are you saying that each nail strip can be used on both hands?

@crystald3655

​@@nicolemcelwaine2587 yes. If you have short nails you can cut the strips in half and use half on one hand and half on the other

You don't need to separate all the nails to put them back in the package. (Hard to get them back out again.) Lay them across a nail file and use that to guide them back into the package 👍

I put a layer of Revlon color stay clear top coat the second day. I put a layer of the clear every other evening or so. Keeps the tips better and the amazing thing is when you are ready to take them off, you don't need acetone ( bad stuff) you can actually peel the color sheet right off. Give it a try. My nails last 3 weeks.

It’s easiest to remove if your pour a little bit of the acetone enough to fill a corner of a baggie and then place it in a warm bowl of water and wiggle your fingers in the baggie and it comes off so easy.

Holidaze was just added to the regular line for the spring launch! Also when applying a top coat, wait until they are cured just like washing your so the liquid doesn’tseep under the polish ☺️

Do you mean when applying a regular nail Polish top coat ( as I’ve heard some folks do ) to wait for them to cure first or before applying the glitter on top of the solids? Either way this is a wonderful tip and thank you but I’d like to understand it the right way 😆

@sguenther12

melissa harris when applying a liquid top coat, don’t do it right away. Wait for the color street to cure to the nails first (about 30 minutes). Some people notice what looks like bubbles and it’s because they didn’t wait for color street to cure to the nail and the liquid top coat seeped under it.

Thank you for the compilation of tips and tricks!!! I love that now all I learned, and some new hacks, are all in one video!!!!

I’ve been a Color Street Stylist since August 2020! I’m obsessed! Love how you shared those great tips!

I did my first set before watching any videos! Not a successful application 😖 but after watching you tube I have become addicted to color street! So easy and fun to wear ❤️

Love this video and all the tips. I'm relatively new to Color Street and these really helpful!

I looooooive that you’re not wasteful at all ❤️❤️

I started using them this year. Love them! Great tips!

Thanks for your video! I'm new to Color Street and appreciate the tips. I also love videos from people who are honest about their imperfections and share that.

I never leave comments but wanted you to know I found this very helpful. You have such a positive and calm way about you that I really enjoyed. Good luck!

I just joined as a stylist in March. I love them! I love doing my nails but I’m a first time mom and I’m trying to figure out how to mom and still have some me time. And these make it so much easier. Thank you for the tips and tricks. I’ll share these with my customers.

I just started using Color Street and really like them. I have even tried overlays. Your tips and tricks are very helpful. Thank you

Girl- you saved me lol I only did my nails one other time and was not so good lol I used up my sheet and was disappointed. But now, because of you.. I was able to get a full mani/pedi and have enough to possibly do a second mani. Thank you so much.

Very helpful ! Beautiful color. Love your pen!!

I suggest putting "Coming Up Rose Gold" on TOP of the "Berlin It To Win It. Really pretty!

Thanks for sharing your tips video. I started wearing Color Street in November and joined as a stylist last week. I watched your video to get ideas for my first video.

LOVE Color Street! I've been using them for a couple years, and greatly appreciate these tips and tricks. I used to use gel, but developed an allergy. I find that Color Street provides nearly the same amount of protection and strengthening to my nails as the gel did. I have longer nails, so I can't use a single strip for both fingers BUT I can use the leftover for my toe nails, thereby getting both a mani and pedi out of one set. Also, when they start growing out and I don't feel like applying a new set, I'll paint over them with regular nail polish. I get the benefit of the protection provided by strips with the fun of using some of my favorite nail polish colors. And the polish lasts much longer than it normally would on bare nails. The only thing I don't like about this is the ridge when they grow out, so I love the idea of smoothing the ridge with a Q-tip and polish remover before applying nail polish. Thanks again!

Those are so cute!!!love holidaze!!!

I have been using Color Street close to a year, started selling in Oct 2020. LOVE the product!!!!

Thank you for all the information.

Love Capitol Hill with Berlin to win! Also I’m so glad Holidaze is back in the spring catalog!

Your nails turned out really well! TYFS

I just did my first French Nails by Color Street and I LOVE it! Each time I do my nails it gets better. I keep buying them...addiction! lol

Just started selling it. Your video was amazing and really helps me. Thank you!!

I used “Clear as day” over my solid on one hand and it lasted 14 days with minimal wear. I wore Dashing Diva and used Essie gel speed setter on the other hand and they lasted the same with minimal wear.

Just did a pedi today - it's fantastic! So incredibly fast!

You can also combine some of the sets! I don't really do that because in my opinion they are perfect the way they are with just 1 set but many some people like to do combos! Btw I am only 11 and obsessed with color street :D

I'm fairly new to Color Street too and also was putting whole strips back in packaging to save 😄 . Thanks for the tips they really helped! Still not a lot of luck saving the extras as my nails are short also. I may try doing matching pedicure and use the whole set at once.

Thanks for the tips top coats and putting it on at night!

I never really had an issue removing the polish but then I tried nail clips and OMG GAME CHANGER!!!! Comes off so so simple!! I never use a top coat (it is a base coat polish top coat all in one) Yes best time is before bed! I would suggest a glass file the one that comes with your set is so rough but whatever works! (full discloser I do sell it)

I saw another video where they folded the strip over the nail rather than leaving a raw edge. When I paint my nails I always try to do that so gonna try that.

I am a Stylist...great video!

I use CND Shellac as my top coat. Mine last 2-3 weeks with no chipping or shrinking. Also, I get the strip right up to my cuticles and use the sponge tool to smooth the edge right down to the very edge for a nice clean look. No fingernail showing along the edge.

Great video! I have one suggestion, instead of breaking them into two pieces when you put them back in the package, I just FOLD them, then seal the package with a flat iron. They are easier to remove.

I don’t use a top coat. The only thing is to make sure you don’t apply over cuticle. I have used their clear strips on top of those I want them to last a long time. They lasted two weeks.

Great and informative! Just an observation of your beautiful bedroom. You have regular red nail polish on your tray sitting on your nightstand. Just curious, do you polish your nails with polish or use Color Street Tips more?

Good news Wendi - they just announced this is back for spring! Stock up!

Use nail clips with. Little bit of Mineral Fusion on a half of a cotton ball. Let them sit for a minute or so and the polish practically slides off...glitters included and no scrubbing needed!!!

It’s good to wait 5 or so mins after applying to let any polish shrinkage occur before filing ;)

I get all 10 fingers done with one strip set . 💓 great bargain for beautiful fast nails 💅

Invest in nail clips.. I promise it will save u sooo much time trying to get it off. And mineral fusion! Oh and try the anchor trick when applying!

How long can we keep the strips in the freezer before they need to be used?

Do you ever get bubbles on these wraps and if so what’s causing them

I am very new to this and so not sure what you mean about the solid colors and apply another color???? Please explain.

New CS Customer. What is mineral fusion??

I never use a top coat and I do t have any issues. If it’s a base, and a top coat and polish all in 1, not sure why it’s necessary. ❤️

I use Clear as Day as the top coat... it’s from Color Street and you get 32 nails as opposed to 16 in a regular set... these won’t ruin your manicure... I’m a stylist for Color Street.

Can I get a users list of recommended top coats? Obviously I want ones that work but I also value 'healthier' options with fewer chemicals. Looking forward to everyone's expertise and thank you in advance!

I wish you had talked about which one to choose for which finger. Do you want them slightly bigger? Or smaller? Or ???

Why the glitter might be lasting longer than the solids is because solid is only 2 coats I believe and the glitter is 3 coats of nail polish.

How do you remove Color Street nails? Peel off or fingernail polish?

I wondered if that would work, and now I know it does and will be using mine as well.

I do my nails and toes at the same time. I usually have enough of each strip (after dividing between each nail) to cover one of my four small toes on one foot. I then use the largest strip halved between my big toes and divide one strip among my other four toes (on the other foot) I have quite small and short nails so I can usually get two Mani/pedis out of a set. But I REALLY love doing matching Mani/pedis with one of my daughters or my sister or mom! Then the remaining strips have no chance to dry out! 🥰
