Nagelati FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
At Nagelati, we use plant-based resin (PLA) instead of conventional petroleum-based plastics.
- Renewable sources: PLA is derived from plants such as corn and sugarcane — not fossil fuels. This helps reduce our carbon footprint and reliance on non-renewable resources.
- Designed with the future in mind: Unlike traditional plastics that can remain in the environment for centuries, PLA is designed to break down under specific industrial composting conditions.
- Sustainable beauty: It’s our way of creating products that are kinder to the planet — without compromising on durability, comfort or aesthetics.
Please note: PLA does not fully break down in home composts or landfills. Proper industrial waste management is essential.
Adhesive Tabs (recommended for first-time users)
Adhesive tabs are easy to apply and beginner-friendly.
Each tab is pre-sized and numbered to match your press-on nails.
- Designed to loosen naturally over time
- Easy, gentle removal
- Ideal for first-time users
To remove: Apply a little cuticle oil and soak your nails in warm, soapy water. Gently lift once the nails start to loosen.
Liquid glue offers extra hold and is ideal if your nails are exposed to more strain.
- Offers a stronger, longer-lasting bond.
- Requires a little more patience during removal.
- Allow at least one week of wear before removal, and only remove once the nails begin to loosen naturally.
We’ve made a conscious decision not to include small, single-use liquid glue tubes in every nail set.
- Each set includes 36 high-quality adhesive tabs, which are sufficient for most wearers
- Many customers prefer adhesive tabs, while small glue tubes often go unused and create unnecessary waste
For those who prefer liquid glue, we offer our 7g brush-on glue separately at checkout for a small additional charge — ensuring it reaches only those who truly need it, while helping us reduce waste.
Quick removal – soak & remove
- Soak your nails in a warm oil and soap bath for 5–10 minutes
- Once the nails begin to lift, gently peel them off
- Never force or pull the nails — this protects your natural nails
With adhesive tabs, nails typically last 3-5 days, depending on application and daily activities.
With liquid glue, wear time will be longer.
For first-time users, we recommend starting with adhesive tabs as they are easier to apply and remove.
