How to Apply Press-On Nails with the Included Kit – It's Super Simple!
You'll need: a cuticle stick, glue, nail file, and alcohol wipes.
Trim Your Nails: Cut your nails as short as possible for a more natural look with press-on nails.
Prepare Your Nails: Use the cuticle stick to remove any dead skin from your nails and trim the cuticles.
Buff Your Nails: Thoroughly buff your nails to remove any remaining dead skin and to create a smooth surface for the nail glue.
Shape Your Nails: Use the nail file to shape your nails if needed.
Clean Your Nails: Use the alcohol wipes to remove any dust and oil from your nails.
Use the Glue: The glue in your kit has two tips:
- Precision Tip: Cut it with scissors for precise application. The downside is it can dry out quickly, making it almost single-use.
- Regular Tip: Twist the cap off for multiple uses without drying out.
Apply the Glue: Squeeze the glue onto the press-on nail – not too much, just enough to spread evenly. Also, apply some glue to your natural nail. The glue isn't very runny, so it won't drip easily. Press gently to control the amount.
Press and Hold: Scrape the press-on nail against your natural nail to spread the glue evenly, then press it down firmly for about 6-7 seconds until it's secure.
