Flexible tape method
Place a flexible measuring tape across the widest part of the nail, from sidewall to sidewall. Record the width in millimetres for every finger on both hands.
30-piece multi-width fit
This 30-piece style includes multiple widths, not a guaranteed fit for every nail. Before applying jelly tabs, test the nails across both hands and choose a comfortable sidewall-to-sidewall fit.
A press-on should cover the natural nail from sidewall to sidewall without pinching. If a nail is slightly wide, file the side edges gently; never force a nail that is too small.
How to measure
Measure the widest part of each natural nail. Use a millimetre chart only when one is supplied for this exact style; measurements do not guarantee fit or curvature.
Place a flexible measuring tape across the widest part of the nail, from sidewall to sidewall. Record the width in millimetres for every finger on both hands.
Lay a narrow paper strip across the widest part of the nail, mark both sidewalls, then flatten the strip and measure between the marks with a millimetre ruler. Repeat for both hands.
Application and removal
The kit contains dry jelly adhesive tabs. Liquid nail glue is not included and must be purchased separately if preferred. Follow the instructions supplied with your chosen adhesive.
Before applying adhesive, match each press-on to a natural nail without pressing or forcing it. Do not use a nail that pinches or leaves exposed sidewalls.
Wash and completely dry your hands and nails. Gently push back cuticles if needed; do not apply over irritated or damaged nails.
Choose a jelly tab that stays within your natural nail. Smooth it down, remove its protective film, then align the press-on at the cuticle and press firmly following the adhesive instructions.
Check that the edges are secure and comfortable. Avoid using the nails as tools. Wear time varies with fit, preparation, adhesive, water exposure and activity.
For jelly tabs, soften with warm soapy water and gently ease the press-on away without pulling or peeling. Stop if there is pain or resistance. If using separately purchased glue, follow its removal instructions. Do not force removal.
