Press‑On Nail Guide

Wash hands thoroughly with soap and warm water to remove dirt and oils.

Push back cuticles gently using a cuticle pusher.

Trim or file natural nails to your preferred length.

Lightly buff the nail surface to remove shine and help glue adhere.

Clean nails with alcohol wipes to remove oils, lotion or dust.

Ensure nails are completely dry before applying glue.

Avoid lotions or oils before application — they weaken adhesion.

Lay out your press‑on nails in order from thumb to pinky.

Check sizing to ensure each nail matches your natural nail.

Apply a thin, even layer of nail glue to your natural nail.

Add a small dot of glue inside the press‑on nail for extra hold.

Press firmly for 10–20 seconds, ensuring there are no air bubbles.

Repeat for all nails, working one hand at a time.

Avoid water, steam or heavy activity for at least 1 hour to let glue cure.

Do not force or pull the nails off — this damages your natural nail.

Soak in warm soapy water, cuticle oil or an oil‑based remover for 10–15 mins.

Once softened, gently lift from the sides using a cuticle stick.

If the nail resists, soak longer — never force removal.

After removal, clean and buff lightly, then moisturise with cuticle oil.

Avoid excessive water exposure, especially in the first 24 hours.

Wear gloves when cleaning, washing dishes or using chemicals.

Avoid using your nails as tools (opening cans, scratching labels).

Apply cuticle oil daily to keep natural nails healthy and flexible.

Store press‑ons in their original box to keep them clean and protected.

Add a small dot of glue under any lifting edges to extend wear.

Remove old glue from the back using a wooden stick or gentle file.

Store nails in a clean, dry container.

Use fresh glue for each re‑wear.

Avoid soaking press‑ons in acetone — it can damage the design.
