How to Apply
Step 1
Remove Existing Product
Before applying your press-on nails, make sure your natural nails are completely clean and free of any polish gel or regular.
Press-ons should always be applied directly to your bare nails for the best adhesion.
For a more secure fit, trim your natural nails so they don’t extend past your fingertips. Then, use the nail file included in your application kit to gently shape and smooth the free edge.
Step 2
Care for Your Cuticles
Using the cuticle stick provided, gently push back your cuticles with the angled edge and remove any dead skin from the nail plate for a clean surface.
If you’re experienced with tools like an e-file or cuticle nippers, you may use them for a more natural, salon like finish. However, if you’re not familiar with these tools, it’s best to skip this step to avoid damage.
Step 3
Buff Your Nails
Use the buffer block from your kit to lightly buff the surface of each natural nail. This removes surface shine and helps the liquid glue or adhesive tabs bond more effectively
Step 4
Clean with Alcohol Pad
Use the provided alcohol pad to wipe down your natural nails, removing any dust, oil, or residue from buffing.
For better retention, also wipe the underside of each press-on nail before application.
Step 5 -Option 1
Option 1: Apply Liquid Glue
Note: For long wear (10–12 days), follow Steps 1–4 before applying glue.
If you prefer only a few days of wear, you can skip the prep steps.
- Check the Fit – Test each press-on to ensure it fits your nail snugly and sits right against your cuticle line. Use the file to adjust if needed.
- Apply the Glue – Apply a thin, even layer
of liquid glue to your natural nail, avoiding the cuticle area. - Apply the Press-On Align the press-on nail at a 45° angle to your cuticle, then gently press down until it’s fully adhered.
- Secure the Nail – Hold and apply firm pressure for about 30 seconds, alternating positions so all areas of the nail receive pressure.
👉 Tip: Apply one nail at a time for best results.
Step 5 -Option 2
Option 2: Apply Glue Tabs
Note: Glue tabs are ideal for temporary wear (2–3 days).
- Prep Your Nails – Follow Steps 1–4 for
clean, prepped nails. - Select the Right Size – Match each glue tab to your natural nail size and apply it to your nail. Or you can apply directly to the press on from sidewall to sidewall
- Remove Plastic Film – Peel off the plastic covering to expose the adhesive surface.
- Apply the Press-On – Align the press-on with your cuticle line and press firmly for 30 seconds, alternating pressure across the nail.
👉 Tip: Apply one nail at a time for secure adhesion.
