Gel Nail Strips - Palaka: Malolo Syrup

ʻAuhea wale ʻoe te wahine holo lio, pua nani o Hawaiʻi lā? Though palaka has roots in the colonial plantation history of Hawaiʻi, our people have used it to build our local identity and style. Now it's a classic mainstay of style & fashion in Hawaiʻi.  Aloha i ka Hawaiian Cowboy!

This hot pink shade brings to mind pink stained lips from childhood pāʻina where juice from Malolo Syrup was a staple.

These are the perfect addition to any girl’s night in. You can give yourself or your friends a salon-style manicure right in the comfort of your own home! And it’s incredibly easy as well! You can easily give yourself a salon-style manicure at home in 30 minutes!

The set includes a nail filer, a cuticle pusher, Iwi Nail Prep Pad (alcohol wipes), and nail strips. When the nails are applied and correctly cured, they can last for at least three weeks and beyond. They are also easy to remove, so you can switch up the designs as often as you’d like.

To remove the nails, there are no harsh chemicals or grinding required! Just take the wooden burnisher, wet it, or drop cuticle oil on your cuticles. Then you use the burnisher side to slide the water or oil under the nail, and the glue will start to dissolve. Do not rip them off, as this could damage your nail beds.

This would also make a great addition to any nail care/salon gift basket. It is the perfect way to get at-home nails that you or your loved ones will love—from the process to the end result.

Features:

• Includes: Nail Filer, Cuticle Pusher (burnisher), Iwi Nail Pre Pad, and Nail Strips.
• Top coats are optional and can give a unique matte or high gloss finish.
• Unopened sets should last up to a year.
• Note: Iwi Nails do their best to photograph the nail strips to capture the true color, but the color online may vary slightly from the actual color.

Application Instructions:

1. Buff your nails with the nail filer before cleaning.
2. Clean your nails really well with the alcohol wipe (any dirt or oil will prevent nails from sticking).
3. Apply the strips and burnish with the little wooden stick included. Rub out any air bubbles and make sure there are no lifted edges.
4. Cure for the full 60 seconds. (There is a built-in timer in the lamp).
5. A top coat helps, but you should get to wear the strips even without it.

Please note you will need a Gel Nail Lamp if you do not already own one. You can purchase one here.
