How to Size for the Perfect Fit

Option A: Use Our Perfect Fit Kit (Recommended)

You will receive The Perfect Fit nail sizing kit complimentary with your first order with MUSESSENCE. Our sizing kit provides a sample of Aprés Nail Gel-X® tips of your ordered shape and length in all available sizes so you can find your exact fit with confidence. Order The Perfect Fit Kit.

- Place each nail tip on your natural nail.
- Choose the tip that sits flush with your nail plate and covers sidewall to sidewall.
- Note the etched size number of the nail tip for each finger.
- Repeat for both hands.

Option B: Soft Measuring at Home

Clients looking for a faster alternative can measure their own nails and compare to the designated sizing chart to find their size. This may introduce a margin of error in sizing as these measurements do not take all factors of nail shape into account.

You will need a strip of clear tape, a fine-tip marker, and a ruler in imperial units (with millimeters).

- Place a strip of tape across your natural nail. Press firmly and smooth out any wrinkles or folded edges.
- Mark the widest points of both sides of your nail with a pen.
- Remove the tape from your nail, lay on a flat surface, and measure the distance between the two points in millimeters. This is your Inner Curvature (IC) measurement.
- Now, measure your nails in the widest points sidewall to sidewall directly by placing the ruler over your nail. This is your Width (W) measurement.
- Compare the measurements to the sizing charts below.

Warm tips:
- It is normal for your sizes to vary between your dominant and non-dominant hand. Size every nail.
- Always double check your work; make sure you have written the numbers for the correct fingers and correct hand.
