How To Apply
Achieve a beautiful, long-lasting manicure in just a few minutes.
What's Included
Every kit contains:
- 30 press-on nails (15 sizes)
- Nail glue
- Adhesive tabs
- Cuticle stick
- Alcohol pad
Step 1: Prep
Healthy preparation is the key to longer wear.
- Wash and thoroughly dry your hands
- Cut your nails to a shorter length
- Use the cuticle stick to gently push back your cuticles
-
Remove any loose skin from the nail plate
Step 2: Find Your Sizes
Before applying any adhesive:
- Match each press-on nail to your natural nail
-
Choose the size that covers your nail from sidewall to sidewall without pressing onto your skin
If you're between two sizes, choose the slightly smaller size for a more natural fit -
Lay your selected nails out in finger order before application
Step 3: Buff & Cleanse
A clean nail surface helps your press-ons stay secure.
- Lightly buff the surface of each natural nail to remove shine
- Wipe every nail with the included alcohol pad
- Allow your nails to dry completely before applying glue or adhesive tabs
Avoid touching your nails after cleansing, as natural oils can reduce adhesion.
Step 4: Apply
Using Nail Glue (Best for single-wear for up to 3 weeks)
When applied with nail glue, your press-ons are generally best enjoyed as a single-use set, as glue build-up may prevent successful reuse.
- Apply a small amount of glue to your natural nail
- Add a thin layer inside the press-on nail
- Align the press-on with your cuticle
- Press down firmly from the cuticle toward the tip for 20–30 seconds
- Gently buff the tip (the free edge) of the press-on nails to smooth any sharp edges.
Using Adhesive Tabs (Best for temporary multi-wear for up to 1 week per wear)
When applied with adhesive tabs, your press-ons can generally be reused up to 3 times. Adhesive tabs can be gently removed without leaving significant residue, allowing your press-on nails to be cleaned, stored, and reused for future applications when properly cared for.
- Select an adhesive tab that matches your nail size
- Apply the tab to your natural nail and press firmly
- Peel away the protective film
- Align the press-on nail with your cuticle
- Press firmly for 20–30 seconds
- Gently buff the tip (the free edge) of the press-on nails to smooth any sharp edges.
Aftercare Tips
For the strongest hold:
- Avoid water, lotions, or oils for at least 1 hour after application
- Wear gloves when cleaning or washing dishes
- Do not use your nails as tools to open cans, scratch surfaces, or lift objects
- Store unused nails safely so you can wear them again
With proper application and care, your press-on nails can be reused up to 3 times, subject to the application & removal method and usage.
