Tips & Tricks

#1 tip from the red carpet

Take a tip from the red carpet: Glue on or press-on ready to wear false nails can help your nails look camera-ready within minutes.

Gels vs. acrylics

Choose gel over acrylics: Gel false nails and nail polish colors are more flexible than acrylic, so they are more comfortable and durable in the long run.

How to hydrate

Hydrate your nails. Between false nails and/or nail polish wear, apply cuticle cream or petroleum jelly to your nails and cuticles a few times a day to add moisture and rejuvenate your nails and skin.

Nails no no's

Never use your nails in place of a tool for opening can tabs, scratching off labels, etc. Poking, prying and picking can damage your nail tips.
