What's in the box
Everything you need to get started is in the box:
- 15 handmade soft gel nails: 10 for your hands and 5 spares, in your size
- 150 adhesive tabs, good for several rounds
- Nail file, cuticle pusher and 5 alcohol wipes
Choosing your shape and size
You choose the shape yourself: Round, Oval Short, Square Short and Oval Long, from the shortest to the longest. Then you choose a size: XS, S, M or L. False nails stand or fall with the right size, so measure first. Lay a ruler across the widest part of your nail and note the measurement. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one: the sides file down to fit easily.
Applying and wearing
It takes you about ten minutes, no more: degrease your nails, choose your size, add an adhesive tab and press each nail down firmly for 10 seconds. No lamp, no drying time. For the first 2 to 4 hours, avoid keeping your hands in water for long; that gives the tabs time to bond properly. Expect 1 to 2 weeks of wear with the adhesive tabs included, about 10 days on average. Because this is real soft gel and not thin false nails, you can file them, paint over them and simply use the set again after removing it, three to five times on average. To be honest, if you do a lot of washing up or cleaning you will get slightly fewer days out of them.

Attach the press-onHold it at a 45-degree angle and line it up with the adhesive tab. Press it onto the tab, slide it towards your cuticle and then press it down.
Press firmlyFrom the centre towards the edges, so air bubbles disappear and the bond is strong.
Avoid water for 2 to 4 hoursThis gives the adhesive time to bond properly and keeps your nails on longest. Washing your hands is fine, just put off that long bath for a while.
