How to Size

✨WHY, SIZING IS IMPORTANT!✨

Just like when shopping for shoes you have to size your feet before purchasing a pair that fits. The process of finding the correct sizes for your press on nails applies as well. A slight difference in millimetres will make your press on nails feel ill-fitted.

Everyone’s nail beds are different, some have long + narrow, broad sideways, and rounded nail beds, just to name a few. Therefore different lengths and shapes will look different on everyone.

Please consider purchasing a sizing kit in each shape and length you would like as this is the preferred way to get your best fit!

Sizing Kit

THIS METHOD IS RECOMMENDED FOR THE BEST + MOST ACCURATE FIT.


MUST DO THIS WITH NATURAL NAILS
, free from enhancements

1. Size all 10 nails, both left and right hand.

2. Take a tip and press it onto your nail using light pressure:
          o Ensure it covers the nail from side to side
          o Check for gaps:
                    ~ small gap: go up one size
                    ~ no gap: check with one size down in tip to confirm which size fits better
          o Check for overlaps:
                    ~ if there is an overlap past your nail on either side, it is too big
                    ~ go down in size and check for gaps and pinching
          o Check for pinching: – press down with light pressure
                    ~ if you feel pinching when pressing down on your nail, it is too small
                    ~ go up one size

3. If you are in between sizes and are unsure, my recommendation is to go with the larger size as you will be able to file sides for a custom fit to your nails.

4. Write down your sizes & add to ‘Custom Sizes’ OR send them via email to hello@nailsbycreme.com
ex. L 3 7 6 7 9  (thumb, index, middle, ring, pinky)
      R 3 7 6 6 9 (thumb, index, middle, ring, pinky)
