Short Almond Nail Tips: Soft Gel Tips for Full — Long-Wear

These short almond nail tips are pre-etched soft gel tips designed for full cover, long-wear manicures at home or in the salon. Each set includes 120 pieces made from clear PMMA resin, covering 12 sizes so you can find a close match for every nail on both hands.

Design and construction

The tips come in a short almond shape with a smooth, glossy clear finish that can be worn as-is or painted over. The pre-etched surface is designed to help gel or adhesive bond more securely, supporting a longer-wearing, full-cover application compared to plain unetched tips.

How to use

Select the closest-fitting size for each nail, apply gel or nail glue to the tip and natural nail, then press and hold in place for a secure full-cover fit. Cure under a lamp if using gel, then shape and finish as desired with a top coat. To remove, soak and gently file or buff following your normal soft gel tip removal process.

Care tips

Avoid prolonged soaking in water and wear gloves during cleaning or dishwashing to help the tips last. Store any unused tips in a dry, closed container to keep them clean between uses.

FAQ

Do these require a UV/LED lamp? If applying with gel, curing under a lamp is recommended; if using nail glue only, no lamp is needed.

Can these be reused? With careful removal, tips can often be reused for a future application, though fit and finish may vary with wear.

What shape and size range is included? A short almond shape across 12 sizes, for a full-cover fit across most nail widths.
