Application

Applying your nails

Seven small steps, about ten minutes, and a set that stays put all week.

Push Back Cuticles
01

Push Back Cuticles

Soften with a warm cloth, then ease cuticles back with the wooden stick.

02

Buff the Surface

A few light passes with the buffer take the shine off — that's all the grip you need.

Clean & Dry
03

Clean & Dry

Wipe each nail with the alcohol pad and let it dry fully. Oil is glue's enemy.

Size Every Nail
04

Size Every Nail

Lay the set out first. Pick the tip that sits wall to wall without pinching.

05

Apply the Glue

A thin line down the centre of the natural nail, plus a dot inside the tip.

06

Press & Hold

Angle from the cuticle down, then press firmly for 20 to 30 seconds.

Ready to Go
07

Ready to Go

Wait ten minutes before water. That's it — you're done.

Choose your hold

Glue or sticky tabs

Both come in the box. One is for the long week, one is for tonight.

Nail glue

5–7 days

Best for weddings, work weeks, travel.

  • Strongest, water-resistant hold
  • Survives showers and cooking
  • Soak off in warm water to remove

Sticky tabs

1–3 days

Best for dinners, shoots, trying a shape.

  • No glue, no residue
  • Peel off in seconds
  • Ideal for short natural nails
Removal

How to take them off

Gently, always. A soak does the work so your natural nail doesn't pay for it.

01

Soak

Five minutes in warm, soapy water loosens the bond gently.

02

Lift

Slide the wooden stick under the edge and ease upward. Never pull.

03

Reuse

Peel off old glue, wipe clean, and store the set back in its tray.

Wear well

Tips for longer wear

Give it ten

Avoid water for the first ten minutes so the bond can fully set.

Glove up

Wear gloves for dishes and cleaning. Prolonged soaking loosens glue.

Not tools

Don't use your nails to open, scrape or pry. Use the pad of your finger.

Oil at night

Cuticle oil around — not under — the nail keeps skin happy.

Top up

If one edge lifts, re-glue it the same day instead of waiting.
