How to Apply C-Curve Nail Tips

📏 Step 1 – Pick the right nail tips

• Find the right size for each nail. The tip should go from sidewall to sidewall, without pressure or overhang.

• Do not force the tip into place – it should fit naturally.

• Repeat for all the nails before you start gluing them on.

⚠️ Pro tip: Keep your tips in order! Don't mix them up – otherwise you risk your right thumb on your left pinky, and we want to avoid that.

🪒 Step 2 – Prepare the tips

• Use 100 Grit file to roughen up the underside (the curved part) of the tips

• This makes the Base stick much better.

• Do this for all the tips before you start gluing.

📌 Yes, it's like renovating a wall before painting – the groundwork determines everything.

🧪 Step 3 – Apply Base and Stick

• Apply a thin layer of Base along the edge of the nail tip

• Press and hold the tip on the nail for about 20 seconds until it is set.

• Repeat for each finger.

⏳ Keep even pressure – it should sit nicely on your nail

✂️ Step 4 – Trim and shape

• Cut to desired length with scissors

• File free edge and side walls with 240 Grit Pro file

• Also file the top surface to smooth the transition between natural nail and tip.

• Repeat for all nails.

🧼 Step 5 – Brush away excess

• Brush all nails thoroughly to remove any dust or filing excess

💖 Voilà!

You now have perfect C-Curve nail tips, fitted and attached like a pro. You are now 100% ready for applying colour – and who knows, maybe even a little glitter gradient? ✨
