How to Safely Remove Press-On Nails at Home: A Step-by-Step Guide

Steps:

  • Prepare a Soaking Solution: Mix warm water, a bit of hand soap, and a splash of oil (such as olive or coconut oil) in a bowl.
  • Lift Edge with Manicure Stick: Use a manicure stick to carefully lift the edge of the press-on nail.
  • Roll Off Adhesive: Gently work the stick under the nail to roll the adhesive off. If you encounter a sticky part, use the stick to roll it away.
  • Remove Adhesive Leftovers: Use the manicure stick to roll off any remaining adhesive on the nail.
  • Repeat for Each Nail: Carefully repeat the process for each nail, taking about 1 minute per nail.
  • Re-Soak if Necessary: If nails are still sticky, soak again briefly. Keeping the adhesive moist makes it easier to remove.
