Application Guide

Application Method 01:  Sticky Tab System

The Jeauxette Sticky Tab system is engineered for flexible, short-term wear (1–3 days). This non-damaging application prioritizes speed and the absolute preservation of your Jeauxette sets for future use.

THE VISUAL GUIDE
01 | PREP THE FOUNDATION 02 | SELECT THE BOND
Begin with a clean, dry canvas. Gently push back the cuticles and lightly buff the natural nail surface to remove shine. This texture ensures the adhesive anchors perfectly.  Identify the Sticky Tab that precisely matches the dimensions of your natural nail bed. A perfect fit prevents lifting and ensures a seamless profile. 
03 | ALIGN & SECURE 04 | THE REFINING TOUCH
Apply the tab to your natural nail, smoothing out air pockets. Remove the backing, align your Jeauxette set with the cuticle at a 45-degree angle, and apply firm, even pressure for 15 seconds.  Once adhered, if the free edge of the tab is visible, use the file to gently blend or refine the shape for a flawless, customized finish. 

 

PRO TIPS: 

  • DEHYDRATION IS KEY: A sterile, moisture-free surface is the secret to maximum adhesion. Always follow buffing with a thorough wipe using a prep pad or alcohol.

  • TEMPERATURE MATTERS: The sticky tab resin activates with heat. For a tighter initial bond, try gently warming the tab between your fingertips or with a hairdryer for 3 seconds before application.

  • INTERNAL ARCHITECTURE: Instead of applying the tab to your natural nail, apply the correct-sized tab inside the base of the Jeauxette set. This technique concentrates the bond where the set meets your apex, resulting in a tighter, more natural profile at the cuticle area.

Application Method 02: Brush-On Nail Glue System

The Jeauxette Precision Bond Brush-On Nail Glue (The Ultra Bond) is engineered for superior tensile strength and a seamless, air-tight seal. This method prioritizes structural stability and pristine, long-wear performance.

THE VISUAL GUIDE
01 | STERILIZE THE FOUNDATION 02 | CONTROLLED ARCHITECTURE
Push back cuticles and gently buff the nail plate to create an essential anchor. Cleanse with a prep pad to dehydrate the natural nail. A moisture-free base is critical.  Unscrew the Precision Brush-On glue (Ultra Bond). Select your Jeauxette set sizes. Apply a thin, even layer of the glue directly to your natural nail. A controlled application prevents lifting. 
03 | ALIGN & SECURE 04 | THE REFINING FINISH
Align set with the cuticle at a 45-degree angle. Slide backward into the cuticle area for a flush fit. Apply even pressure and hold for 15 seconds until the bond cures.  Once adhered, use the provided file to gently refine the edges and blend the shape to your natural anatomy for a flawless, bespoke finish.

PRO TIPS:

  • DEHYDRATE IS NON-NEGOTIABLE: The enemy of nail glue is oil and moisture. A perfectly sterilized, dehydrated surface is the singular key to preventing premature lifting.

  • LESS IS MORE: Excessive glue is the root of application failure. It pools, delays set time, and can damage cuticles. A controlled, whisper-thin layer is all that is needed for an unbreakable seal.

  • THE COHESIVE BOND: Instead of applying glue only to the natural nail, apply a micro-thin layer to your natural nail and a small dot inside the base of the Jeauxette set. This creates a cohesive structure, eliminating air pockets and creating an undetectable integration at the cuticle line

 

Application Method 03: UV Solid Gel System

The Jeauxette UV Solid Gel is a professional-grade bonding agent designed for absolute structural integrity. Unlike liquid adhesives, this solid-state gel allows for infinite repositioning before it is cured under UV light, ensuring a perfect, bubble-free alignment every time.

THE VISUAL GUIDE
01 | STERILIZE THE FOUNDATION 02 | CONTROLLED ARCHITECTURE
Lightly push back cuticles and gently buff the natural nail plate to create an essential high-grip anchor texture. cleanse thoroughly with a prep pad to dehydrate the natural surface. Oil is the enemy.  Select the correct sizes for your Jeauxette set. Scoop a pea-sized amount of the UV Solid Gel and place it centrally inside the inner base of the set. Do not spread it; pressure will distribute the bond. 
03 | ALIGN & COMPRESS 04 | THE PHOTON CURE
Align the set with the cuticle at a 45-degree angle. Slide backward toward the cuticle. Press down firmly to spread the gel to all edges, ensuring no air bubbles are present. Wipe any overspill.  While maintaining pressure, place the nail under the Jeauxette UV Lamp. Flash-cure for 20 seconds to set position, then complete a full, standard cure for 60 seconds. The bond is now locked. 

PRO TIPS:

  • THE NO-BUBBLE GUARANTEE: If you see an air pocket after pressing but before curing, simply lift the set, add a tiny bit more gel, and re-compress. The gel will not cure until exposed to the UV light.

  • CLEAN SIDEWALLS: For a flawless cuticle line, use a wooden stick to swipe away any gel overspill around the sidewalls before curing. Once cured, the bond is rigid and permanent.
