Sizing Guide

Choosing Your Sizing Method

There are two ways to find your press-on nail size:

1. Order a sizing kit

A sizing kit includes physical Gel-X tips that allow you to find your exact size easily at home.

Sizing Kit Credit

A $6 USD (~$8 CAD) credit will be applied toward your first press-on order. A discount code will be provided by email and included with your sizing kit upon delivery.

 How to use your sizing kit

  1. Test each tip: Place the gel tips onto your bare nails.
  2. Check the fit: The tip should cover your entire nail from side to side, without pressing down hard.
  3. Measure both hands: Write down the size number for each finger on both hands, as sizes can vary between your left and right hand.
  4. In between sizes? Always choose the larger size. You can easily file the sides for a perfect fit.

 

2. Measure your nails manually

You can also measure your nails yourself using clear tape, a pen, and a ruler marked in millimetres. Follow the instructions below for the most accurate fit.

Tape & Ruler Method

You’ll Need:    

  • Clear tape
  • A pen or fine-tip marker
  • A ruler with millimetre markings

Before You Start

  • Measure each nail at its widest point.
  • Be sure to measure both hands, as nail
    sizes can vary from one hand to the other.


Steps

  1. Place a small piece of tape across the widest part of your nail.
  2. Mark both sidewalls of the nail directly
    onto the tape.
  3. Remove the tape and place it flat against a ruler.
  4. Measure the distance between the two marks
    in millimetres.
  5. Write down the width of each nail in millimetres (mm) for both hands, and submit your measurements with your order.
    Example:
    Left Hand: (Thumb) 14.0 / (Index) 11.5 / (Middle) 11.0 / (Ring) 10.0 / (Pinky) 8.0
    Right Hand: (Thumb) 14.0 / (Index) 11.0 / (Middle) 11.0 / (Ring) 10.0 / (Pinky) 8.0
