The products
What are Studio Gloss press-ons made of?

Our press-ons are made from high-quality acrylic rather than cheap plastic, so they look and wear like a proper salon set. They are also HEMA-free, one of the ingredients most often linked to irritation in traditional gels.

Are they reusable?

Yes. Cared for well, a Studio Gloss set is designed to be worn again and again. Remove them gently, clean off any adhesive, and store them safely between wears.

How long do they last?

It depends on how you apply them. Sticky tabs are perfect for a short wear or a quick change, while our gel adhesives hold for longer. Full guidance is in our Application Guide.

Application Guide
What is the difference between press-ons and gel wraps?

Press-ons are full nails you apply over your own for a complete set. Gel wraps are made with real, pre-cured gel that you apply, shape and wear with no lamp needed. Both give a salon finish at home.

Sizing and fit
How do I find my size when shopping online?

Use our Find Your Size tool. Take one photo of your thumb next to any bank-card-sized card and we will tell you your size in about a minute. Your thumb sets the size for the whole set, with each nail graded to fit its finger. If you would rather measure by hand, there is a size chart on the same page.

Find Your Size
What if I am between sizes?

Always choose the larger size. A slightly loose nail files down easily, while one that is too tight will not sit flush.

What if my thumb nail is 18 mm or wider?

Our press-on sets go up to size L, for thumb nails from 16.5 to 17.9 mm. If your thumb nail is 18 mm or wider, we recommend our UV-Free Gel Wraps, which come in a range of sizes and are trimmed and filed to fit your own nails.

Applying and wearing
How do I apply my nails?

We have a full step-by-step guide for every method, from sticky tabs to gel application.

Application Guide
Do I need a UV lamp?

No. Nothing we sell needs a lamp. Sticky tabs and our semi-solid glue set on their own, and our gel wraps are completely UV-free.

How do I remove them without damaging my nails?

Gently. Soak in warm, soapy water or use our glue remover to loosen the bond, then ease each nail off from the side. Never pull them straight off. Full steps are in the Application Guide.

Application Guide
Gel wraps
Are your gel wraps really UV-free?

Yes. They are made with pre-cured gel, so the strength and shine are locked in during manufacture. What would normally need a lamp is already done, so you get a real gel finish with no UV at all.

How are they different from nail stickers?

They are genuine gel, not printed plastic, so they wear and shine like a salon gel manicure. Simply apply, shape and go.

How long do gel wraps last?

Up to around two weeks with good care.
