How to Apply (Sticky Tabs)
1. Get Ready
Use a measuring tape or cut a thin strip of paper with a ruler.
2. Measure Your Nails
Measure across the widest part of each nail. If using paper, mark the edges and check the length in millimeters.
3. Record Your Sizes
Write down all 10 nail widths. Compare with the size chart—or if you want a custom size, simply take note of your measurements when ordering.
How to Apply (Sticky Tabs)
1. Prep Your Natural Nails
Gently push back your cuticles with the pusher. Lightly buff the nail surface to remove shine and oils, then wipe with an alcohol pad to make sure nails are completely clean and dry.
2. Place the Adhesive Tabs
Select the tab that best matches your nail size. Position it in the center and smooth outward so it covers the entire nail evenly.
3. Apply the Press-On Nails
Line up the press-on with your cuticle, then press down firmly at a 45° angle for 15–30 seconds to ensure a strong hold.
How to Apply (Solid Gel)
1. Prep Your Nails
Push back cuticles with the pusher, lightly buff to remove shine and oils, then clean with an alcohol pad so nails are dry and oil-free.
2. Apply Gel
Spread a thin, even layer of solid nail gel either on the back of the press-on or directly onto your natural nail.
3. Attach & Cure
Position the press-on close to your cuticle, press gently, and cure under a UV/LED lamp for 60 seconds to secure.
How to Remove Press-On
1. Soak in Warm Water
Place nails in warm, soapy water for 5–10 minutes to loosen the glue or adhesive.
2. Gently Lift
With a cuticle pusher or wooden stick, carefully lift the edges. If the nail resists, soak longer—never force removal.
3. Clean & Care
Buff away any leftover adhesive, then wash and moisturize your hands to keep nails healthy.
