Rather you're a press-on pro or a curious first-timer, this guide will help you master the art of dazzling, durable nails with ease. From sizing to cleaning and applying, we’ve got you covered—because your sparkle deserves to shine!
Press-on nails typically come in standardized sizes to fit a wide range of nail beds.
Standard Press-On Nail Sizes
Nails are usually numbered, with smaller numbers representing larger nails.
Thumbs: Sizes 0–2 (largest nails)
Index Fingers: Sizes 3–5
Middle Fingers: Sizes 4–6
Ring Fingers: Sizes 5–7
Pinky Fingers: Sizes 8–10 (smallest nails)
Measurements by Size
The numbers correspond to the width of the nail (measured in millimeters) at its widest point:
Size Number
Approx. Width (mm)
0 = 17–18 mm
1 = 16 mm
2 = 15 mm
3 = 14 mm
4 = 13 mm
5 = 12 mm
6 = 11 mm
7 = 10 mm
8 = 9 mm
9 = 7–8 mm
1. Finding Your Perfect Size
Proper sizing ensures comfort and longevity. Here’s how to measure for the perfect fit:
Use a soft measuring tape or a flexible strip of tape to measure the width of your natural nails at their widest point.

2. Prepping for Perfection
Clean, well-prepped nails are key for flawless application:
Wash and Dry: Start with clean hands and dry nails to ensure adhesive sticks properly.
Buff and File: Gently buff the surface of your nails to remove shine and file to your desired shape.
Push Back Cuticles: Use a cuticle pusher to create a smooth base for your press-ons.
Clean Again: Use an alcohol wipe or acetone-based remover to eliminate oils and residue.
3. Applying Your Dazzling Design
Now for the fun part!
Adhesive Choice: Decide between glue for longer wear or adhesive tabs for temporary glam.
Apply with Care:
Glue: Add a small dot to both your natural nail and the press-on, then press firmly for 10–15 seconds.
Tabs: Apply the adhesive tab to your nail, peel off the backing, and press the press-on firmly into place.
Check and Adjust: Ensure alignment before the adhesive sets.
4. Sparkle Maintenance
To keep your Enchanted Creations glowing:
Avoid Water for 2 Hours Post-Application: This helps the adhesive bond securely.
Be Gentle: Treat your nails like jewels—avoid using them as tools!
Touch-Ups: Keep a small bottle of nail glue handy for quick fixes.
5. Easy Removal Without Damage
When it’s time to switch up your look:
Soak: Submerge your nails in warm, soapy water or use an acetone-based remover to loosen the adhesive.
Gently Lift: Use a wooden cuticle stick to carefully lift the edges, avoiding unnecessary pressure.
Hydrate: Moisturize your nails and cuticles after removal.
