French tips, pearl and fine glitter, mostly in short square - the shape that survives a keyboard, a gym bag and a full day. Every box holds 48 nails - two full sets of 24 in two designs.
Pick your pair
- Elegance (short square) - soft pink gloss, paired with pearl white shimmer
- Nova (short square) - black with gold glitter, paired with black french tips on a sheer nude base
- Ocean Pearl (short square) - speckled gray and white, paired with bright teal and gold foil
- Pretty in Pink (short square) - pink and lilac with silver glitter, paired with nude and fine swirls
- French Fantasy (almond) - nude pink, paired with cream nude and a classic white french tip
Shape and length vary by design - four of the five are short square; French Fantasy is almond and runs longer. The shape is named next to each design above and shown on every product photo.
What's in the box
- 48 nails - 24 per design, 12 sizes per set
- Polyurethane nail glue
- Material: high-flex ABS. One size box, sized per nail

Wear and reuse. Up to 7 days with clean prep, and reusable two to three times if you take them off properly. Short square is the low-maintenance shape - nothing to catch, nothing to snap.
How to apply
- Wash hands and push cuticles back
- Lightly file and buff the natural nail - this is what makes it last
- Match each size to each finger before you glue anything
- Thin layer of glue, press and hold 30 to 50 seconds
How to remove
- Soak hands in warm water for 15 to 20 minutes
- Lift gently at the cuticle edge with a cuticle stick
- Work cuticle oil underneath to release the rest - never pull
Care: keep hands out of water for the first two hours. A light file across the free edge keeps the square sharp.
Safety: keep away from children. The glue is flammable and can irritate skin and eyes - avoid contact and rinse immediately if it happens. Don't apply over damaged or infected nails. Store cool and dry.
Before you buy
Will it turn my skin green?
Depends what's underneath the gold. Plating over stainless or titanium steel won't - steel doesn't react with sweat that way. Plating over copper or alloy can, because copper oxidizes against skin and the mark it leaves is green. It's harmless and it washes off. Check the material line on this page: it says which one this piece is.
Will it tarnish?
Sterling silver will, eventually - that's silver reacting with sulfur in the air, and it goes black rather than green. A polishing cloth takes it off. Platinum-plated silver resists it for much longer. Gold plating doesn't tarnish; it wears, which is a different problem with the same look.
Is it waterproof?
Water-resistant, not waterproof. Showers, swimming and hot tubs shorten the life of any plated piece - chlorine and salt are the worst of it. Take it off first and you'll double how long it looks new.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
Stainless steel, titanium steel and 925 sterling silver are the safest bets here. Plated alloy is the one to avoid if nickel is your problem. If you react to cheap earrings, stay in the steel and silver collections.
How do I make it last?
Last on, first off - after perfume, lotion and hairspray, before the shower and the gym. Wipe it with a soft cloth after wearing. Store it dry and separate, in the pouch it came in. That's most of it.
