What they are for

The filling adhesive tabs are designed to fill the gap between the natural nail and the press-on nail, helping to compensate for difference in shape or curvature.

They help create a more even surface and improve the fit and adhesion of the press-on nail.

When to use them

They are especially for:

  • flat nails
  • upward-curving nails
  • downward-curving nails
  • uneven nail surfaces
  • differences in curvature between the natural nail and the press-on nail
  • a visible gap between the natural nail and the press-on nail

Important: Apply the filling adhesive tab before the regular adhesive tab.

How to use

1. Prepare the natural nail

Prepare the nail by following the usual application procedure:

  • gently push back the cuticles
  • remove any excess cuticle or dead skin
  • lightly buff the surface of the nail with the file
  • carefully remove dust, residue and traces of oil
  • clean the nail with an alcohol wipe

Before proceeding, make sure the nail is completely clean and dry.


2. Identify the area that needs filling

Temporarily place the press-on nail over the natural nail to identify where a gap remains or where the two curves do not match properly.

The filling adhesive tab does not necessarily need to cover the entire nail. Apply in only to the area that requires additional thickness.

3. Choose and apply the filling adhesive tab

Choose the shape and size that best fit the area to be filled.

Please the filling adhesive tab on the natural nail and press firmly, especially around the edges, to ensure good adhesion.

4. Add more layers if necessary

For a larger gap, you may apply 2 or 3 layers of filling adhesive tabs, depending on your needs.

Always apply one layer at a time:

  • press and smooth the first layer carefully
  • remove its protective film
  • apply the next layers on top
  • press and smooth it again

Repeat until the required thickness is achieved.

Do not apply more layers than necessary. The final surface should be even allow the press-on nail to fit securely and correctly.

5. Apply the regular adhesive tab

After applying the final filling layer, remove its protective film.

Choose a regular adhesive tab that matches the size of the natural nail and apply it over the filling adhesive tab.

The regular adhesive tab should cover the nail properly without touching the skin or cuticles.

6. Smooth the adhesive layers

Use your fingernail or the cuticle pusher included in the kit to press and smooth the edges of all the adhesive layers.

Make sure that:

  • the layers are firmly joined together
  • all edges are fully adhered
  • there are no folds or air bubbles
  • the surface is as even as possible

7. Apply the press-on nail

Remove the protective film from the regular adhesive tab

Position the press-on nail approximately 1mm away from the cuticle, holding it at an angle of about 45.

Apply it from the base of the nail and gradually press it down toward the tip.

Press firmly over the entire surface for at least 10-15 seconds, paying particular attention to the sides and the center.

Tips for better hold

  • Do not apply the adhesive tabs to wet or oily nails, or nails with cream residue.
  • Do not touch the adhesive surface with your fingers.
  • Always use the minimum number of layers required.
  • Avoid contact with water immediately after application.
  • Make sure the press-on nail does not touch the skin or cuticles.
  • Press each layer firmly before applying the next one.

Warning

The filling adhesive tabs are designed to compensate for small gaps or difference in curvature. They should not create excessive thickness or prevent the press-on nail from fitting securely and evenly.
