I tried an at-home gel pedicure to see if nail stickers really work

The pedicure kit
(ManiMe, $15-$25)

Includes custom-sized stickers, an alcohol pad, and a nail file. You can also get the base and top coats for extra.

First, I removed all my nail polish and used the alcohol pad for a clean base.

Next, I peeled off each sticker one at a time and applied to my nail, leaving a small gap between my cuticle and gel nail.

Don't worry. There's supposed to be extra hanging off.

Then I used my nail clippers to get rid of the excess gel. You can also use the nail file they provide, but nail clippers get the job done quicker.

Finally, I topped each toe off with a clear top coat and a shimmery top coat for some extra shine.

A week later and they're still looking good. I give gel stickers a 10/10 for efficiency, cost, and looks.
