Gilded Blush Press-On Nails, Almond Medium

Gilded Blush, cut on almond in a medium length. Sides tapered in, tip rounded off. Almond gives you the line of a stiletto with far more to grip on.

A medium almond shape

The almond taper narrows to a soft rounded point, which lengthens the finger without the fragility of a filed edge. Long enough to notice, short enough to keep using your hands normally.

Ten minutes on, two weeks of wear

Two weeks is the realistic wear window when the prep is done properly. The design is moulded into the tip rather than painted on top, so there is no lacquer layer to chip. What ends a set is the bond underneath, which is why the prep step matters more than anything else.

Twelve sizes in every set

Twenty four nails in twelve sizes, so one of them is yours. No glue in this set. Add it for $12.99, or take three sets and the glue is on us.

How to apply

1. Prep. Wipe with the prep pad, push the cuticle back and buff the shine off. Thirty seconds a hand, and it is what buys you the second week.
2. Size. Lay the nails out and match every finger dry before any adhesive.
3. Press. Brush a thin line of nail glue down the centre of your nail, or use an adhesive tab. Press down for thirty seconds.
4. Go. Around two weeks of wear. To remove, soak in warm soapy water for five minutes and ease the nail off with a cuticle stick.
