Apply Press-on Nails
Items included in your press-on nail packaging:
- Handmade press-on nails
- Adhesive Stickers
- Alcohol Pad
- Nail Buffer
- Nail Filer
- Nail Glue
How to prep nails:
Clean your nails thoroughly using the provided alcohol pad to remove any oils or residue.
Make sure press-on nails fit each of your natural nails perfectly. If needed, file the sides of the press-on nails to match the shape and size of your natural nails. For better adhesion, make sure to file the bottom of your thumbs of your press-on nails to match the cuticle line of your thumbs.
Depending on the type of adhesive you want to use:
- Adhesive Stickers: Peel off the backing of the adhesive sticker and carefully place it on your natural nail, aligning it with your cuticle. Place press-on nail at 45° starting at the base and press down firmly to ensure it adheres well.
- Nail Glue: Apply a small amount of glue to the back of the press-on nail and a big drop at the bottom and apply a thin layer on your natural nail. Avoid getting glue on your skin. Place press-on nail at 45° starting at the base press down firmly onto your natural nail and hold for a few seconds to secure.
PROTIP: Etch the back of your press-on for better adhesion. If you have a curvature on your natural nail use both the adhesive sticker and nail glue to fill the gap (repeat if the gap is large). Apply adhesive sticker regularly, if the gap is larger apply a second one, but towards the tip of your nail. Then apply nail glue on top of the sticker.
OPTIONAL: Add cuticle oil (Essie: Apricot Cuticle Oil), if any, to moisturize your nails and fingers.
