Sizing Kit InstructionsInstructions Find the size for your pinkie nails. Take the smallest press-on nails from the kit and try them on your pinkie nails. The trick is to have them feel natural; not tight. If you are in between sizes, size up; you can always file them down. Check if your other pinkie is the same size. Most of the time your left-hand sizes match your right-hand sizes, but not always. Once you have found the right size(s) write it down. Repeat these steps for the remaining fingers. Helpful Tips: Pinkie nails are most commonly a 7,8, or 9. Thumb nails are most commonly a 0,1, or 2. When sizing your middle, ring, and index finger, your middle is normally the largest of the three. Your ring finger is typically one size smaller than your middle finger. Your index finger is normally the smallest of the three.

Nail Application Using Sticky TabsPush back cuticles. If your cuticles are long, cut them. This is important so that the press-on nails aren't pinching them and causing discomfort. File your natural nails, if needed. Buff your nails. You can use your own nail buffer or if you are in a hurry, lightly scrape a nail file over each nail bed. Clean each nail with an alcohol wipe. If you don't have a wipe, you can use a paper towel with alcohol; not a cotton ball. Select sticky tabs that are similar to the size of your nail beds. Peel them from the sheet and place on your natural nails. Important: line them as close as you can to your cuticles to prevent water from seeping in. Peel the top layer film from the sticky tabs.
