      I soaked my nails in acetone for 15-20 minutes and the lace fell off in it.

      Thanks for watching!! Orly has a stop nail biting polish. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth when you go to bite your nails. However, some people still manage to endure the bad taste in order to bite their nails:-( I have heard of a stronger product that actually works better. Let me find the name of it and I will message you later:-)

      Thanks for watching!! Its actually easier than it looks. After two or three nails, you develop a system of putting the lace on. The products dry really fast so there’s not a long wait time. Plus, they aren’t very expensive at Sally’s:-)

      Wow this is such a great tutorial. I would love to try this, but all these products seem like a lot of work!

      Thanks for the suggestion!! I think that would be an easy approach as well but I really wanted to show how to use the actual lace since it had been requested so many times by others. Both would take some patience and only an hour to complete but I may try this approach next time to see how it works for me. Thanks for watching:-)

      wow that seems like alot of work and time maybe next time u can try just painting ur nails black wait till it drys place the lace on top and paint over it with that nude opi color, and then take the lace off and let it dry. it’ll look exactly like u did it just without the feel of the lace when u touch ur nail.

      You can, but you …
      You can, but you probably want to make sure it doesn’t fray (or make sure the edges don’t unravel) as much when cutting out pieces. If applying a large size (like I did in the tutorial) I would suggest only letting some fabric hang off one side so that its easier to seal.
