1Before you order — or before you glue
Find your perfect fit.
The right size is the secret to a natural, salon-quality finish. Each press-on should cover your nail from side wall to side wall without touching the skin.
| Size | Thumb | Index | Middle | Ring | Pinky |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 14 | 10 | 11 | 10 | 8 |
| S | 15 | 11 | 12 | 11 | 9 |
| M | 16 | 12 | 13 | 12 | 10 |
| L | 17 | 13 | 14 | 13 | 11 |
1Tape
Wrap clear tape across the widest part of your nail.
2Mark
Mark both edges where the nail meets the skin.
3Measure
Lay the tape on a ruler and read the width in mm.
- Measure all 10 nails. Left and right hands are often slightly different — size for your widest nails.
- Between sizes? Choose the larger size and gently file the sides for a seamless, edge-to-edge fit.
- Need a hand? Email a photo of your nails next to a ruler to support@nailartsupply.shop — we’ll recommend your size within 1 business day.
22 minutes that make the difference
Prep for a flawless hold.
Natural oils are the #1 reason press-ons lift early. A clean, dry, lightly buffed nail gives the glue something to grip.
Buff lightly
Use the file to lightly buff the surface of each nail until the shine is gone. Keep it gentle — just enough texture to grip.
Dehydrate
Wipe every nail with the prep pad (or rubbing alcohol) and let them dry completely. Don’t touch your nails after this step.
Pro tip: lay out all 10 press-ons in order — thumb to pinky, left and right — before you start gluing.
3Choose your look
Press on, your way.
Two methods, both included in your kit. Choose glue for long wear, or tabs for a weekend look you can change in minutes.
Nail glue
- Apply a thin layer of glue to your natural nail and a small drop to the inside of the press-on.
- Place it at a 45° angle, starting at the cuticle, then lower it down onto the nail.
- Press firmly from the center out to the sides and hold for 20–30 seconds.
- Wipe away any excess glue at the edges and repeat on each nail.
Adhesive tabs
- Choose a tab that fits your nail, peel and place it, sticky side down.
- Smooth it out and peel off the top film.
- Press the nail on from the cuticle down and hold firmly for 20–30 seconds.
- Tabs are gentlest on natural nails — ideal for a first try.
4Make them last
Wear & care.
Do
- Avoid water and lotion for 1–2 hours after applying.
- Wear gloves for dishes and cleaning.
- Use the pads of your fingers, not your nail tips, to open things.
- Keep the extra glue handy for quick touch-ups.
Don’t
- Soak in hot water, pools or hot tubs on day one.
- Use your nails as tools to pry, scratch or peel.
- Pull or bite off a lifting nail — re-glue it instead.
- Apply over oily, lotioned or damp nails.

Remove & reuse.
Soak
Soak your fingertips in warm, soapy water with a few drops of cuticle oil for 10–15 minutes.
Lift gently
Use the cuticle stick to ease each nail up from the sides. If it resists, soak a few more minutes — never force or pry.
Clean & store
Buff away leftover glue from the back of each press-on, then store the set in its box to wear again.
Your new favorite manicure awaits.
