How to apply your press on nails

With Glue (watch the video tutorial here)

  1. Before applying, make sure your hands are clean and thoroughly dry.
  2. Remove nails from tape and size them to your natural nails. **If the base of the press ons are too wide for your cuticles, gently file them down with the nail file provided. This may cause lifting.**
  3. File your natural nails to your desired length.
  4. Using the cuticle stick provided, gently push down your cuticles. You can use the pointed side to safely remove any dead skin and dirt under your nails. 
  5. Using the buffing block provided, gently buff the shine off your nails. **If cuticles aren't pushed back enough and the shine isn't removed, it can lead to lifting.**
  6.  Next, with the alcohol wipe provided, cleanse your nails, removing any remaining oil and residue.
  7. Cut the tip of your nail glue stick.
  8. Add a small dot of glue to your natural nails. Avoid applying the glue to your cuticles and skin.
  9. Apply the press on at a 45 degree angle, and press on from the bottom and move up to avoid air bubbles.
  10. Avoid getting your hands wet, applying lotion, oils, etc. for at least 30 minutes.
  11. Enjoy! 

With Nail Glue Adhesive Stickers

    1. Before applying, make sure your hands are clean and thoroughly dry.
    2. Remove nails from tape and size them to your natural nails. **If the base of the press ons are too wide for your cuticles, gently file them down with the nail file provided. This may cause lifting.**
    3. File your natural nails to your desired length.
    4. Using the cuticle stick provided, gently push down your cuticles. You can use the pointed side to safely remove any dead skin and dirt under your nails.

    6.  Next, with the alcohol wipe provided, cleanse your nails, removing any remaining oil and residue.
    7. Find the nail glue adhesive sticker that covers your nail. Apply the sticker straight onto the nail and put the base of the sticker as close to your cuticle as possible.
    8. Remove the sticker and apply the press on at a 45 degree angle. Press on from the bottom and move up to avoid air bubbles. Repeat this on each finger.
    9. Avoid getting your hands wet, applying lotion, oils, etc. for at least 30 minutes.
    10. Enjoy! 

**Please note, the stickers create a gap between the base of your nail and your press on. Nail glue adhesive stickers are great for 1-5 day wear.**
