FAQ

What comes with my purchase?

All Mana+Cura nail sets come with 20 full-coverage gel tips (in assorted sizes to ensure best fit), instructions for applications and removal, a nail file, buffer, glue, 2 alcohol wipes and a cuticle stick. 

How do I apply/remove my nails?

A detailed set of instructions is included with your purchase.

What is the difference between a gel and acrylic nail tip?

Mana+Cura nails are made with high-quality Aprés Gel nail tips. Gel tips are stronger and more flexible than acrylic, providing a more natural looking nail and more flexible application to the nail bed.

What is the difference between the short and long nail length?

       

How long will the nails last?

With proper application, you should be able to get a solid 1+ weeks wear from your nail set. Avoiding prolonged exposure in water will help extend wear (i.e. wear gloves while washing dishes and cleaning). If you’re looking for temporary wear, try using adhesive nail tabs to apply your nails instead of glue. Nail tabs can be purchased easily here in Canada and here in the US.

Can nails be reused?

Mana+Cura nails sets can be reused when removed and stored properly. It is best to remove old glue from the back of your nail tips (with a nail file, buffer, or carefully clip off with cuticle clippers) before reapplying.

How are these nails different than a set I can buy at the store?

Mana+Cura nails are created using a full-coverage gel tip, where as mass produced nails are often made from a lesser-grade plastic or acrylic. They are also hand-painted and customizable.

How will press on nails effect my nail heath?

As long as nails are applied properly (nails tips lay flat on your natural nail bed and do not capture moisture) and you do not over-buff your nails, they should remain perfectly healthy.

How long will my order take to ship?

Orders will be shipped out within 1 week of order confirmation. All nail sets are hand painted with care and precision, so shipping times may vary due to order volume.

Do you accept returns?
