Do you want to apply false nails at home? Here is the tutorial you need:

Preparation of capsules:

Always choose a cap slightly larger than your natural nail. This will avoid having the natural nail showing on the sides.

Cut and file your nails to have the cleanest surface possible.
Disinfect your nails and clean them using a cleaner.
Adjust the capsule to the width of your nail by filing it on the edges.
Then place the stopping point of the capsule against the free edge of the nail.
Cut the base of the capsule so that a third of the nail is covered.
File the cut part of the capsule using a grain file.
Then file the top of the capsule so that it blends perfectly with your natural nail.
Do the same for the other 9 capsules, and arrange them so you know which one will go on which finger.

Nail prep:

Installation of capsules:

Apply a thin line of nail glue to the surface that will be in contact with the nail.
Place the part of the capsule with the glue on the tip of your nail.
Hold it pressed on your nail for 5 seconds.
Repeat the procedure for the other nails.
Cut them and file them with professional manicure kits, in the same order as installation.
Polish the part where the natural nail connects to the capsule.
File the sides of the cap so that they are aligned correctly with your natural nail.

Application of the gel:

Apply the Corrective Base to the nail using very thin layers so that the UV lamp can harden each layer.
Leave to dry under the lamp for: 120 sec (UV) / 30 sec (LED).
Then apply the gel in the same way as the corrective base.
Leave to dry under the lamp for: 120 sec (UV) / 30 sec (LED)
Then, remove the sticky material using a cotton pad and the finishing product.
File the side of the nails to get a clean result.
Moisturize your cuticles using a special cuticle oil.

So! you should have a clean and shiny result! If you want a natural effect, you just need to file them a little to remove the shiny surface.
