Why JC Nailbox
100% hand-painted

No prints, no decals, no factory line. One artist paints every nail with a brush — no two sets leave the studio identical.

Premium qualified gel

The same salon-grade gel a top studio uses — not cheap plastic blanks. Painted, then cured sixty seconds under UV into glass-hard gloss.

Sterile out of the box

Every finished nail passes a UV-C sterilizing chamber before it is cased and sealed. It arrives clean enough to wear straight away.

Gentle by design

All the curing happens in the studio — never on your hand. Your own nails stay whole, protected and free to grow.

Tap a size to compare it against your measurements.

Between two sizes? Always choose the larger one — a slightly wider nail files down; a narrow one never fits.
How to measure — all you need is clear tape, a pen and a ruler
1

Place a strip of transparent tape across the widest part of your natural nail.

2

Press the tape firmly into both sidewalls of the nail.

3

Mark the left and right edges of the nail on the tape with a fine-tip pen.

4

Peel the tape off and lay it flat on a ruler.

5

Measure the distance between the two marks in millimetres.

6

Repeat for all ten nails — every finger is different.

Fingertip with a strip of transparent tape across it, marked in red at both edges of the nail

Tape across the nail, one mark at each edge — then read the marks flat on a ruler

No tape at hand? A thin strip of paper works the same way — wrap, mark both edges, measure it flat.

Between two sizes, go larger — a wider nail files down. Still unsure? Message us and we will help.
