1. Nail Preparation is Essential

Proper nail prep helps your press-on nails stay longer and look more natural.

Prep Your Cuticles

Use a cuticle pusher to gently scrape off dead skin and trim off any excess cuticle. This gives a cleaner nail bed and helps the press-on nails fit better without bumps or gaps.

Buff Your Nails

This is a must for a stronger, longer-lasting hold. Buff the surface of your natural nails, and finish by wiping your nails with an alcohol pad to remove dust and oils.

2. Choose the Right Nails Size and Direction

Find the Correct Direction

The thicker end (with the number on the back) goes at your fingertip, and the thinner end should align with your cuticle. If placing the thicker end with your cuticle, the fit will be poor and may not adhere properly.

Pick the Right Size

Our sets include 12–15 sizes to help you find the best match. If none of the included sizes fit perfectly, choose a slightly larger one and file down the edges for a custom fit.

3. Choose the Glue and Apply

Tips for Better Hold

• Apply glue to both your nail and the press-on nail, or slide the press-on slightly 2–3 times when applying to evenly spread the glue.
• Hold firmly for 20 seconds. 
• Avoid contact with water for 1 hour.

Recommended Glues Based on Usage:

• -Wear for one day like parties or photoshoots, adhesive tabs are recommended.
• For light-colored nails worn for a week with reuse in mind, solid glue is advisable.
• For long-lasting wear, semi-solid glue is the best choice.

4. Personalize Your Look (Optional)

If there is any leftover glue on the edges of your nails, remove it, and then you can achieve a perfect manicure. If you have specific requirements for the shape and length, you can trim or file the nails to your desired shape and length.

5. How to Remove

Soak your nails in warm water for about 10 minutes to loosen the adhesive. Gently lift the press-on nail from the edges using a wooden stick. After removal, apply cuticle oil to nourish your nails.

For faster removal and less damage, you can use the Curvlife Remover.
