Snowflake Cat Eye Press-On Nails, Square Short

Snowflake Cat Eye, cut on square in a short length. Square holds a straight line across the tip, so tips, dots and stripes stay perfectly parallel.

A short square shape

A clean square edge, filed flat with the corners taken off just enough to stop them catching. At this length you can type, cook and work without thinking about your hands.

Ten minutes on, two weeks of wear

Applied to a clean, oil free nail, expect around two weeks of wear. 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

Twelve sizes in the set, which covers the two or three fingers that never match a standard chart. Glue is not in this box. Add a bottle below, or it comes free when you take three sets.

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.
