Product Information

  • Every Faebound set is hand-painted and crafted with intention — no factory prints, no shortcuts.

    These are story-driven, high-detail, main-character nails designed to look like you walked out of a fantasy novel… not a fast fashion cart.

  • Press-ons give you salon-level drama without salon-level commitment.

    ✨ Instant transformation
    ✨ No damage when applied correctly
    ✨ Reusable
    ✨ Switch styles whenever your main-character arc changes

    They’re freedom. With claws.

  • 3D press-ons include sculpted elements — raised art, charms, texture, crystals, layered gel detailing.

    They’re not flat.
    They’re not subtle.
    They are wearable art.

    Handle with care and store properly between wears.

  • It depends on your application spell:

    Adhesive tabs: 1–3 days (perfect for events)
    Nail glue: 1–3+ weeks (with proper prep)

    Longevity always comes down to prep and lifestyle. Your nails are only as loyal as your cuticle prep.

  • Yes — if removed gently and cleaned properly, your Faebound claws can absolutely rise again.

    Adhesive tabs make reuse easier. Glue gives longer wear.

    1. Push back cuticles

    2. Lightly buff natural nails

    3. Clean with alcohol

    4. Apply adhesive (tab or glue)

    5. Press firmly for 20–30 seconds

    Application instructions are included with every order.

  • Never rip them off.

    Soak hands in warm, soapy water and gently lift from the sides using cuticle oil.

    Slow removal = reusable nails.

 

Sizing

  • Measure the widest part of each nail and compare to our Fit Guide.

    Between sizes? Choose the larger option for comfort.

    If you want certainty, order a Faebound Sizing Kit first.

  • Unlike other press-ons, Faebound press-ons are available in both Natural (flat) and Sculpted (curved) fits.

  • Think of it like this:

    Natural = balanced, versatile, suits most people
    Sculpted = deeper curve, more dramatic fit

    If your nails are fairly flat or standard in shape, choose Natural.

    If your nails have a strong arch or you’ve struggled with press-ons feeling too flat before, Sculpted may suit you better.

    When in doubt, Natural is the safest choice.

  • All sets are handmade to order, so we’re unable to offer remakes or exchanges for incorrect sizing.

    Please measure carefully before ordering — we promise it’s worth the extra minute.

  • Slightly.

    Different shapes and lengths can feel a little different on the nail. Our tiers are proportioned carefully, but if you have unique nail proportions, custom sizing is always available.

  • Yes — if you know your exact sizes (00–9), you can select custom sizing at checkout.

    Perfect for those who fall outside standard tiers.
