Have you ever ordered a set of press-on nails from a favorite retailer only to find them too big or too small to stick over your natural nails? This situation is a huge disappointment, especially if you ordered from an overseas company and waited weeks for your nails to arrive (yes, we're sadly speaking from personal experience!). You can try to work with wrong sized nails, but the secret to making press-on nails last longer is having a secure fit. Wouldn't it be amazing if you could have a set of press-ons curated to your exact nail size before you commit to buying them?
This TikTok user had the same thought. Maganda Nails, a press-on nail boutique, knows the struggle of wasting money on nails. Keeping that struggle in mind, they developed a simple hack to eliminate "blind buying" when it comes to press-on nails.
It's easy. To get started, grab a coin and set it on a flat surface. Next, take a pic of your hand next to the coin, making sure your polish-free nails are clearly visible in the photo. Then, take another photo with just your thumb, nail side up, and the coin. The coin helps set a size comparison of your nail, which Maganda Nails will use to get your perfectly sized press-ons.
