AILLSA Short Almond Nail Tips - Upgraded Matte Gel Nail Tip No Filed, Pre-shaped Soft Full Cover Short Almond Nails Clear Acrylic False Gelly Nails Tips for Soak Off Nail Extensions 240 PCS 15 Sizes

2nd update:I tried a few other brands and none fit my as well with no filing necessary. Although I only use 4 sizes, so a lot goes to waste. But U have small hands and very round cuticle beds and these are the only brand that don't require filing at all except a buff when I put them on. I recently tried another brand and they said medium but we're way narrow and so long that I had to clip them (also almond medium). So I'm bumping these back to 5 stars, but you need a lot of glue to keep them on several weeks. And pressing them for several minutes - after gluing makes all the difference.UPDATE: Not only do they break horizontally, they also chip fairly frequently (not the color, the entire nail). I bought 3 boxes when they were on lightning deal. So I'll be using them awhile, the fit is perfect but the quality isn't. Much more high-maintenance than my previous brand. I cant get through a week without having to reglue or replace one. But like I said, the fit is perfect, no filing required at all for me. And I can go longer or shorter with these. My suggestion is to use a ton of glue. But if it breaks off where the nail bed ends, you will be struggling to get the rest of it off. NOT for large hands.I had previously left a 5 star reviews. I've been wearing these a few months now. Previously only used BTARTBOX but they didn't have this almond shape. These are an absolute perfect fit for my small nails (I wear XS gloves and only one size is too big so large nailed people might want to try something else). I didn't care about the etching, I stil buff my nails good before using. I use the same glue I used with the other brand that last 2-3 weeks. Some of these will pop off after only a few days applied the exact same way. But the part I don't like is that many have broken - not chipped) horizontally, right at the line wear the etching stops. So pretty much the full tip beyond my nail bed. This has happened after only a day of applying, which makes getting the rest of the nail off my nail bed very difficult. I do love the shape though- others I've had to trim down because I type all day but these are the perfect length and look very natural once painted. I used a base coat, the regular non-gel polish followed by Seve Viche quick-dry top coat (you can apply this stuff to wer polish and it dries it all in under a minute. Never have to touch up the polish. I get less wear overall. About 7-10 days and usually have to reapply during that time several times because they popped off. I thought I would hate that they're on a strip and not already loose, but having them on a strip makes choosing the right size easier- just go down the line holding sizes over your nails. I also don't like that they're clear. I've used the "natural" kind from BTARTBOX and they look good without polish m these need to be polished right away. I'd fine 3.5 stars if I could. Love the fit, but not the same quality. Get rid of the etching and they probably would not break off where it ends. Use the pink glue here on Amazon, it last the longest.. NOT kiss glue. I used to be able to wear nails until the cuticle grew out in 2-3 weeks with the same glue. These don't glue on the same even though I use the same process (glue on the nail itself and a good amount on my natural nail). There should be enough so there is excess that squeezes out that you need to wipe off IMMEDIATELY. Then press down hard (pinch) about 20 seconds and you're set. No UV light is required. It dries FAST. Anyway to summarize, great shape but not as long-lasting, break off horizontally if you hit them just right (and you will) and just don't glue on the same. I'll probably go back to BTARTBOX but those are bigger and loose in a box separated by size (which will end up mixed together) and I only use 3 of the 12 sizes. They're bigger than these and require more shaping. NEVER polish before gluing on. Because if you're using enough glue to last a few weeks, excess will get on the polish and you'll have to polish them again. I do keep 5 polished in my purse just in case one pops off when I'm out and I can't find it. Easy fix.

love the length, they are in the thinner side but i personally don’t mind them. I wouldn’t use on my clients though

I like that these are a bit thinner than some nails. I will say that even though they are buffed, I would still recommend filing the inside before adhering to your nails. They give a great look and don't need to be filed after! Easy to apply and don't chip.

So nice! I love how they are laid out (not in those boxes with all the sizes in different compartments) as it makes it easy to pick the right size and then take the one you need.

These nails are perfect for my daughter who has an interest in doing her own nails. I won’t let her get real acrylics from the salon because many reasons. So she paints these herself and then uses good nail glue to attach them. They are easy to apply and remove and the length is easy to adjust with a nail filer. They aren’t super thick so they look like your real nails.

It doesn't come with glue so I used a glue I've used with other press on nail sets that has never caused problems before. I filed down my nails, used alcohol prep, pressed down my cuticles, everything needed to make it last. With just normal use (housework, some light cooking) I had two pop off within half a day. I tried to re-glue them and a third popped off an hour later. I gave up after that and popped the rest off myself.Also, this was only an issue for one single nail, but I noticed near the end that the thumb nail was really bendy, and folded with little pressure. I didn't notice that when I first put them on, so maybe something softened it.The plus side is, it's excellent for matching sizes. The size range is great and the differences between them is so slight that there's no need to file down the nails themselves to fit, there will be one that works.

Strong. Hold up well. Used with builder gel. Turned out good.

Rarely leave reviews but these were so great I had to. I applied builder gel and gel polish on top. My mom’s nails break frequently and these have really been a self esteem boost for her. Will update with photo.
