If you want to bring a touch of the Marvel universe to your fingertips, nail wrap company Jamberry has you covered. A collaboration between Jamberry and Marvel is giving comics fans a line of nail wraps featuring some of Marvel’s iconic heroes.

The capsule collection includes a Captain America “Soldier On” set, an “I am Iron Man” set, a comic book panel style “Your Hero” set, and a “Change the World” set that is pink and features Captain America’s shield. The “Change the World” set is also available in a junior size.

The nail wraps are just as colorful in person as online. The samples provided by Jamberry looked great, with the “Your Hero” set standing out with its colorful, comic-panel style. Instructions are available online for the wraps’ application and removal. 

We tried wraps from each of the sets, and they were all rather easy to apply —though how easy will depend on your nails. I’ve discovered I always have a slightly harder time with any nail wraps because of my small nails.

According to a spokeswoman, each set should deliver “two to three manicures depending on nail shape and size.” These wraps are the only collaboration going on between the two companies at the moment.

While it’s a small collection, Marvel fans will probably love the assortment. It’s also a great step toward offering more geek-themed cosmetics to fans, with tons of potential to expand in the future. It would be especially nice to see more variety in the junior sizes.

Each of these nail wrap sets costs $18, and will be available until Oct. 31. You can learn more about each set on Jamberry’s website.

Disclosure: Jamberry provided nail wrap samples to the Daily Dot for review.
