How do I apply my press-on nails?

  1. PREPARATION:
    Start with clean, dry nails.
    Gently push back your cuticles to ensure the press-on nails adhere smoothly.

  2. SELECT NAIL SIZES
    Choose the press-on nails that match the size and shape of your natural nails for the best fit.

  3. STICK

    With Jelly Stickers (short term):

    • Clean the nail bed with the supplied alcohol pad
    • Peel off the protective backing from the jelly sticker.
    • Place the jelly sticker onto your natural nail, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
    • Press the press-on nail onto the jelly sticker, starting from the cuticle at about a 45 degree angle and press down firmly.
    • Hold in place for about 30-60 seconds to allow a secure bond.

    With Nail Glue (for longevity): 

    • Clean the nail bed with the supplied alcohol pad
    • Apply a drop of nail glue onto your natural nail and a drop to the press-on nail.
    • Press the press-on nail onto your natural nail, starting from the cuticle at about a 45 degree angle and press down firmly.
    • Hold in place for about 30-90 seconds to allow the glue to set.
       
  4. SERVE
    Once all press-on nails are applied, gently file and shape them to your desired length and style.
