  How Do You Apply Press-On Nails?

  It’s easier than you might think!

  
  

  1. Prep Your Nails: Start with clean, dry nails. Lightly buff the surface and push back your cuticles.

  2. Choose Your Sizes: Match each press-on to your natural nail. File the sides if needed for a perfect fit.

  3. Apply Adhesive: You can use either nail glue for stronger hold or adhesive tabs for a gentler, temporary option.

  4. Press and Hold: Place the press-on on your nail, starting at the cuticle and pressing down firmly for about 30 seconds.

  5. Style and Go: File or shape the tips if desired — and you’re done!

  
  
  
  

  Pro Tip: Avoid water or heavy hand use for the first hour to allow maximum bonding time.
