  1. I will be honest with you, they do not really look like anything other than press ons. It does not take away from how pretty they are.

    As a side note, I feel like pastels/bright colors in particular feel like it is hard to get away w them when it comes to press ons.

    No because press ons are not a one size fits all and you actually need to file them down to fit your nail beds.

    They look like press ons but look super cute and when your hands are in motion, no one but actual nail techs will probably notice this lol. They are really pretty!

    Since it’s your first time using press ons, I’ll give a bit of constructive advice. Most of these look too big for your nail beds. If you’re between sizes of nail tips (press on nails), use the larger size and file them down so they fit from sidewall to sidewall of your nail beds, and along the cuticle side, perfectly. This helps a lot and it’s easy to do. Enjoy!!

  4. Each nail looks slightly too large for your nail beds and sides, but the light color of them could be emphasizing that (making them appear larger). Someone suggested you have to file press-ons down anyway which can be true! Might be the brand and their size ranges, or maybe next time when you’re sizing the nails, one that looks *ever so slightly* undersized will look more natural. The aim is to find your perfect fit, with the nails and designs that you love, and I wish you luck!
