Love the look of salon nails but don’t have the time (or money) for acrylics? Our press-on nails are the perfect solution! With a professional-quality finish and easy application, you can get a flawless manicure in under 10 minutes – no appointment necessary.

Follow this step-by-step guide to achieve long-lasting, salon-quality nails at home.

Step-by-Step Application Guide

Step 1: Prep Your Natural Nails for Maximum Hold

Proper preparation is key to making your false nails last longer.

Clean your nails thoroughly – Remove any oils or residue with a nail cleanser or alcohol wipe.
Push back cuticles – This helps the nails adhere properly.
Buff the nail surface – Lightly buff your natural nails to create texture, which helps the glue stick better.

Step 2: Choose the Right Nail Sizes

Lay out the false nails and match each one to your natural nails. If a nail is slightly larger, you can file it down for a perfect custom fit.

Step 3: Apply Nail Glue or Adhesive Tabs

Depending on how long you want your nails to last, choose between nail glue (for a stronger, longer hold) or adhesive tabs (for a temporary look).

  • For long-lasting nails (up to 2 weeks): Apply a thin layer of nail glue to both your natural nail and the back of the press-on.
  • For short-term wear (1-3 days): Use adhesive tabs, which are mess-free and easy to remove.

Step 4: Press and Hold for 10-15 Seconds

Align the false nail with your cuticle and press down firmly for at least 10 seconds to ensure a secure hold.

Step 5: Shape & Style

Once applied, file or shape the nails to your preference, and apply a top coat for extra durability.

Tips for Making Your False Nails Last Longer

✔ Avoid water exposure for at least two hours after application.
✔ Apply an extra layer of glue after a few days for added strength.
✔ Keep a spare set in your bag for quick replacements on the go!
