💅 Press-On Nails – DO’s & DON’Ts

February 10, 2026

✔ Prep your natural nails
Clean with an alcohol pad and gently push back cuticles.

✔ Choose the correct size
Pick a press-on nail that is slightly smaller than your natural nail.

✔ Press & hold firmly
Hold each nail for 10–20 seconds for strong adhesion.

✔ Avoid water initially
Keep nails dry for 1–2 hours after application.

✔ Remove gently
Soak nails in warm water or oil before removal.

✔ Store nails properly
Keep unused nails clean and stored for reuse.

✖ Don’t apply on oily or wet nails
Oil and moisture weaken the adhesive.

✖ Don’t use nails as tools
Avoid opening cans, scratching, or pressing hard buttons.

✖ Don’t rush removal
Pulling or forcing can damage your natural nails.

✖ Don’t oversize the nails
Too-large nails lift easily and look unnatural.

✖ Don’t reuse adhesive tabs
Always use fresh adhesive for hygiene and better hold.

✖ Don’t expose to heat immediately
Avoid hot showers, steam, or saunas right after application.
