Adhesive Tabs are ideal for short-term wear and can last around 3–4 days. For a longer-lasting hold, Nail Glue can keep your press-ons on for up to 3 weeks with proper prep and application.

*Your wear time may vary depending on your nail prep, fit, lifestyle, and how often your hands are exposed to water. Make sure your natural nails are completely clean and dry, choose the right size, and give the adhesive enough time to set before getting your hands wet.

You can choose from XS, S, M, or L using our size chart. Measure the widest part of each natural nail and compare your measurements with the chart to find the size that fits most of your fingers. If you’re between sizes or have flatter nail beds, we recommend sizing up for a more comfortable fit.

Not sure which size to choose? Our Universal Sizing option includes 24 nails in 12 different sizes, giving you more choices to find the best fit for each individual nail.

Mani Atelier nails are designed to be non-damaging to your natural nails.

For the best experience, always follow the recommended application and removal steps. Avoid pulling or forcing the nails off, as improper removal may damage the surface of your natural nails.

Mani Atelier brings together handmade artistry, Universal Sizing, and premium Soft Gel tips in every set.

Each collection is created by our in-house nail artists using Japanese gels and a protective Crystal Top Coat for a comfortable, durable, salon-level finish. The nails are designed to fit XS, S, M, and L nail beds, last for up to 3 weeks per wear, and be reused multiple times.

Start with clean, completely dry natural nails. Gently push back your cuticles, lightly buff the nail surface, and wipe each nail with the alcohol prep pad to remove any oil or dust.

Next, choose the best-fitting size for each nail and apply your preferred adhesive. Position the press-on close to your cuticle, then slowly press it down so it sits evenly without gaps or air bubbles. Hold it firmly in place to create a secure bond.

For the best wear, avoid water and soap for a few hours after application while the adhesive fully sets.

Never pull, peel, or force your press-ons off. Soak your fingertips in a bowl of warm water with soap and a little oil for 10–15 minutes to help soften the adhesive.

Once the edges begin to loosen, gently work around the sides using the cuticle stick included in your kit. If a nail still feels firmly attached, soak it again and give the adhesive more time to soften rather than forcing it off.

Taking your time helps protect your natural nails and preserve your Mani Atelier set for future wear.

Please also refer to our removal page

Yes! Mani Atelier nails are reusable when they are applied, removed, and cared for properly.

After removal, gently clean away any leftover adhesive from the underside without scraping or thinning the Soft Gel tip. Once the nails are clean and dry, place them back in their tray or storage case to keep their shape and design protected until your next wear.

How many times you can reuse them will depend on the adhesive you use and how carefully they are handled.

You can gently file the free edge of your Mani Atelier nails to make small adjustments to the shape or length. File slowly and take extra care around the artwork, charms, or raised details so the original design stays protected. Avoid making major changes that could weaken the Soft Gel tip or damage the finish.
