HOW TO APPLY
HOW TO REMOVE
• Soak your nails in hot water with dish soap and oil for 10–15 minutes.
• Gently lift around the edges with a cuticle stick.
• If they don’t come off easily, soak a bit longer.
• If you applied with glue, do not attempt removal before 7 days—you can damage your nail beds.
• Never force or pull them off.
• Proper removal is essential for the health of your natural nails.
• Once removed, wash your hands and apply cuticle oil to nourish and restore your nails.
• Sometimes glue can remain inside the gel nail tip—this can be filed out. For best results, use an electric nail file. They're affordable and work great for cleaning the inside of your gel tips.
APPLICATION PRO TIPS
• Make sure your nails and cuticles are clean.
• Push back your cuticles and remove all oil and buildup around the nail area—this is essential to avoid lifting or fall-offs.
• Ensure your hands are completely dry. Water molecules can interfere with adhesion, so avoid washing your hands right before application.
• Do not use creams or oils 2 hours before and 2 hours after applying the nails.
• Prep one hand at a time. Once nails are clean and dehydrated, apply immediately—don’t touch them again, or you’ll transfer oil and dirt.
• For short wear (like a weekend), use the sticky tabs included.
• For medium hold (7–14 days), use Makartt glue.
• For strong hold (2–4 weeks), use SOFbond™ glue
• If your nails are oily, use a nail dehydrator before applying.
Proper prep = strong, long-lasting nails!
MAINTENANCE
The Cox Studio luxury gel nails are made to last. Crafted with high-quality materials, they’re durable and reusable—but how you care for them makes all the difference.
Treat them like jewels, not tools. While strong and unlikely to break, they can still become damaged or pop off if you use them to open things or hit them against hard surfaces.
Apply cuticle oil daily. Moisturised cuticles help prevent lifting and keep your nails secure for longer wear.
Always wear gloves when cleaning. Dish soap and household chemicals are harsh—not just on your nail enhancements, but on your natural nails and skin too.
After removal, clean your nails and store them safely. With proper care, they can be reused many times—and even last over a year. That part is up to you.
