I have wide nails, will your semicured gel nails fit me?

At Self Care Beauty Australia we often get asked the question; ‘Will your nails fit my nails?’

Short answer is 'Yes, our semicured nails fit most’, this is simply because we cannot 100% guarantee that they will … although we wish we could.

But today we write with good news, we believe that with a few bits of application advice that can help you with applying our semicured nails to your nail size. 

Below we aim to highlight some of the application tips and tricks we've learnt along the way.

WIDER NAILS

If you have a winder nail, you may find that some of our sizes are just a little small. If this is you, then when applying the nail stickers ensure that it is centered on your nail. When sticking the rest of the nail down gently pull the nail sticker (as they have a little bit of stretch) to gain the extra millimetre you may require. If you plan on trying this technique please be sure to not over stretch the nail sticker as it can distort the nail colour or pattern. 

SHORTER NAILS

If your nails are shorter then prior to peeling off your nail sticker we recommend that you cut it in half, this means you can use the one nail sticker for two nails – winning. Using the nail stickers in this way will reduce waste. However, this won’t be the only win you'll have as you’ll be able to save on your cash as you will be able to get two sets from the one package. Should we be encouraging this, no! But do we love our customers and want to help them out? Yes, you can thank us later.

This brings us to one of the best kept secrets... How to store your left-over nails stickers.

To store your left-over nail stickers simply place them back on the black pouch and re-seal using your hair straightener.

Benefits for storing your nails like this:

  • No chance of UV hitting the nail, ensuring that they don’t set before you’re ready to us them again
  • They stay flexible and manageable
  • They don’t dry out
