Retro Romance
Every set is painted by hand in our studio, never mass produced. We check each nail before it ships, so it looks fresh from the salon when it arrives.
With the glue in the box, your set stays on for 2 to 4 weeks of everyday wear. Only need them for one night? Use the sticky tabs and take them off anytime.
Our soft gel tips bend with your nail, so they feel light and never pinch. They come off without harsh filing or soaking, and our paints contain no HEMA.
Everything you need is in the box: prep tools, glue, sticky tabs and an easy guide card. No salon visit and no drying time.
Take them off gently, keep them in the case, and wear the same set again for your next event.
Emily in Paris Meets Valentine's Day: The Chicest Set of 2026
Not every Valentine's look needs to be pink and soft. For the fashion-forward girl who loves a bold lip and a vintage vibe, we present Retro Romance. This eclectic, mix-and-match set combines the timeless elegance of French tips with the playful energy of polka dots. It’s "Coquette" with an edge—perfect for a Galentine's brunch or a romantic dinner in the city.
The Design: A Parisian Love Affair
This set features a curated mix of designs that look like a custom salon manicure:
The Polka Dot Play: We’ve remixed the classic dot pattern in two bold ways. The thumb features a crisp White base with Red dots for a pop of brightness, while the middle finger flips the script with a dramatic Black base and White dots—giving major retro 1950s/60s vibes.
Modern French Tips: The index and pinky fingers keep it classy with a deep Red French Tip on a nude base. It’s the "Little Black Dress" of nail art—always sophisticated.
The Coquette Detail: The ring finger is the star of the show, featuring a specialized French tip adorned with red dots and tied together with a delicate, hand-painted Black Ribbon Bow. It perfectly captures the viral "Coquette" aesthetic dominating TikTok, adding a sweet, feminine touch to the bold color palette.
The Shape: Classic Almond
Sculpted in a medium Almond shape, this silhouette elongates the fingers and provides a sophisticated canvas that prevents the bold patterns from looking overwhelming. It’s sleek, manageable, and universally flattering.
Vibe Check: Bold & Playful
This set is for the "Cool Girl." She doesn't do clichés. She wears red lipstick, loves vintage fashion, and wants her nails to be a conversation starter. The high-contrast Black, White, and Red palette stands out in a sea of pastels, signaling confidence and style.
Your Instant Manicure
Get the "Emily in Paris" look without the flight ticket or the salon wait:
10x Hand Painted Nails: Sealed with a high-shine top coat for lasting durability.
All-Inclusive Kit: Comes with our signature Adhesive Tabs (for a 3-7 day fling) and Nail Glue (for a 2-4 week commitment), plus a file, buffer, cuticle stick, and alcohol pad.
Make a Statement
Why whisper when you can shout? Retro Romance is loud, proud, and impossibly chic. Add to Cart and bring a touch of vintage glamour to your Valentine's Day.
Each Handora set includes 10 handmade press-on nails and a complimentary Prep Kit to ensure a flawless application.
Your kit includes:
- 2x Sheets of adhesive tabs
- 2x Alcohol prep wipes
- 1x Wooden cuticle stick
- 1x Sponge buffer
- 1x Nail file
- 1x Nail glue
How to Apply
- Size: pick a nail for each finger that covers your nail edge to edge, just above the cuticle.
- Prep: push back cuticles, lightly buff, then wipe each nail with the alcohol pad.
- Glue: add a thin layer to your nail and a small drop inside the press on.
- Press: place it near the cuticle, press down and hold firmly for 10 to 20 seconds.
- Stick: peel an adhesive tab and smooth it onto your nail with no air bubbles.
- Press: remove the top film, press the nail on and hold for 10 to 20 seconds.
Remove according to the adhesive you used. Never pull or force a nail off.
- Adhesive tabs: soak in warm soapy water with a little oil for 10–15 minutes, then gently loosen the edges. Repeat if needed.
- Nail glue: use Magic Remover as directed on its label; allow 5–10 minutes and gently loosen. Repeat if the nail is still attached. Water alone may not release cured glue.
Acetone may affect the finish and reuse of the set. For reusable removal, follow the remover instructions. Stop if removal is painful.
Glue, adhesive tabs, file, cuticle stick and alcohol pad are all in the box.
these nails turned out more stunning than i expected, i will definitely be ordering again. they are sturdy, and chip-free!!!
I never considered press ons until I saw añ ad for these. I’m obsessed.
Cute. This is the set that looks most like what’s on the website
Cute! Wish it had more dark colors and details like on the website but excited to wear
Love these!
These nails are PERFECT and they fit with no issue. I did use my own glamnetic glue to apply them but the nails themselves are excellent quality.
I love them a lot I just have really small nails and wish I’d have ordered a different size for my thumbs bc they’re slightly larger
I ordered the wrong size first, but the customer service was SO good at helping me get the proper size! These nails are SOOOO dang cute. Easy to put on and they come with everything you need for a salon worthy manicure at home.
I get my fingernails only from Handora. I've purchased approximately 30 sets - or more! - and have positively adored each and every set. The sizing is perfect, and I know I will always get the highest-quality nails available. There are so many designs available, and there are many sets for any holiday or special occasion. I love Handora!
Exactly as shown in the pictures. Feels durable and quality. Not sure if they chip or wear down with time since they've only been on for a few days, but so far so good! I've definitely banged my nails a handful of times and they're still looking great.
Absolutely in love with these nails. They are so pretty and I have gotten so many compliments. Will definitely be buying more!
I’m obsessed with these! Really good quality and fit! Doxie mom approved!!
