The set contains 320 tips across 16 sizes, engineered for a close cuticle fit and minimal filing. Designed for both curved and flat nail beds, the tips aim to reduce lifting and speed up the prep and application process without requiring extra filing on the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these tips create stronger adhesion than ordinary false nails?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach tip features BTArtbox's patented XCOATTIPS system: a matte, slightly coarse back integrated with a primer layer that helps remove surface oils and improves glue or builder gel grip. Because the primer is paired during manufacturing, you start with a surface engineered to accept adhesive more consistently than smooth plastic tips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePatented XCOATTIPS technology combines textured back and primer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMatte surface reduces grease and promotes adhesive contact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo need to re-file the nail bed before application in most cases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFewer lifts and longer-lasting wear when applied correctly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the material and fit different from standard nail tips?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tips are molded from a soft, flexible gel rather than rigid plastic, allowing for a near-zero pressure fit that flexes with your natural nail. The edge profile is thin toward the back and slightly thicker at the front to mimic a natural nail curve while remaining comfortable at the cuticle line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSoft-gel composition for gentle flex and comfort.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUltra-thin back edge for a seamless cuticle transition.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePre-shaped almond silhouette for an elegant short length.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eResilient: bends, returns to shape, and resists cracking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I choose the right size and apply these short almond tips?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes 16 sizes (0–15) with 20 pieces per size, making it easy to find the closest match for each finger.
