Applying luxury press-on nails for the first time can be intimidating, but don't worry. It's easier than you think, and believe us, once you get the hang of it, it's hard to switch back to traditional manicures.
Grab your application kit and let's get started.
Step 1. Prepare your nails
Make sure nails are clean, dry, and free of any product. Optional: gently push back your cuticles with a cuticle stick.
Step 2. Trim and buff
Lightly buff your nails to remove shine and trim your natural nails so that they’re shorter than the press ons.
Step 3. Wipe and clean
Use the alcohol wipe to remove any debris and oils from your nails, then cut the tip off the liquid glue tube.
Step 4. Add liquid glue
Add a drop of liquid glue to your natural nail. Avoid the cuticle area and sides of your nail to prevent flooding. You can also squeeze a small amount of liquid glue onto the back of the press on nail.
Step 5. Align and press
Starting at the cuticle, align the press on with your nail then gently press down to secure it in place. Give it a few seconds to allow the glue to set.
Step 6. Hold and set
Hold firmly and apply light pressure on and around the nail to remove air bubbles and seal the bond.
