Using the Press-On Nail Application Kit included with your order, begin by filing your nails and shaping them down. You don't want your natural nails to be longer than the nail tips, so also be sure to order the proper length/size for a proper application.

• Use the wooden cuticle pusher to gently push your cuticles back.
• Buff your nail bed with the included buffer to reduce the shine.
• Remember, if the oils aren't fully removed from your natural nails, the press-on nails won't adhere properly and will most likely lift. So, buff, buff, buff!

• When the shine has been removed from your nail bed and your cuticles have been pushed back evenly, use an alcohol wipe to clean off all the dust and oil on your natural nails.
• If you skip this step, you could see lifting with your press-ons. So, don't skip this step!

• Now, you're ready to apply your press-on nails, using the nail adhesive tabs and/or nail glue provided to you.
• This part is sticky, literally, so be careful not to use too much nail glue on the nail bed.
• Super Tip: If you want to wear your press-ons for longer than a few days, consider using the nail tab + nail glue method for stronger hold and longer wear.

Using the nail tab + nail glue method for stronger hold and longer wear:

• After full prep, place the properly sized nail adhesive tab to your nail bed and peel the backing. The tab will stick more securely if the nail bed has been buffed and filed with all oils removed.
• Next, apply a small bead of nail glue around the tab, avoiding flooding around the cuticles.

Sizing

The most important step (outside of prep) is order the correct size.

• If the nail tip is too small, too big, or the wrong shape for your nail bed, you will most likely see lifting and will have trouble gluing the nails on.
• For your convenience, we offer sizing kits in all available shapes and lengths.
• Be advised, when you order a custom press-on set with us, you will automatically receive a sizing kit before the order is fulfilled.

After Care

• For your convenience, we also offer application prep kits that can also be used as repair kits. They're the perfect size and contain all the tools needed to achieve the perfect manicure or to touch up your set when you're on the go or traveling.

Note: Don't immediately submerge your hands after application, at least until all the glue is dried.
