Gel tabs: 1-2 days. These are ideal for temporary wear and special occasions. They make it very easy for you to switch up your nail look. Nail glue: on average a timeframe of 2 weeks. Could be shorter or longer. Do not continue to wear nails that are lifting as it can become a source for bacteria to breed. Remove the lifting nails, then clean and dry before reapplying nails. Note, nails with 3D designs such as rhinestones, etc. are delicate, so take extra care when wearing your nails!
