How to Apply Press-Ons
Preparation is the most important step of the application. Good preparation ensures your press-on nails last.
STEP 1: PUSH BACK YOUR CUTICLES
Gently push back your cuticles with the stick provided.
STEP 2: BUFF YOUR NAILS
Very lightly file the surface of your nails to make it less smooth and improve adhesion.
STEP 1: APPLY THE ADHESIVE TABS
After preparing your nails, choose an adhesive tab that matches the size of each nail.
Peel the tab off its backing and apply it to your nail. Press firmly so it adheres to the entire surface.
STEP 2: REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FILM
Remove the protective film from the adhesive tab.
STEP 3: PLACE THE PRESS-ON NAIL
Position the press-on nail as close to the cuticles as possible, without touching them, at a 45° angle.
STEP 4: SECURE THE PRESS-ON NAIL
Press firmly and hold for 10 to 15 seconds. Repeat for each nail.
Avoid contact with water for the first 2 to 3 hours so the adhesive can set properly.
QUICK TIP 💡 (FOR SHORT NAIL BEDS)
If your natural nails are short, we recommend the following method.
STEP 1: APPLY THE ADHESIVE TAB
Stick the adhesive tab to the inside of the press-on nail, then gently smooth it from the center outward with the stick provided so it follows the curve.
STEP 2: REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FILM
Gently peel off the protective film, starting from the bottom. Check that there are no air bubbles under the tab: it is then properly applied.
STEP 3: PLACE THE PRESS-ON NAIL
Position the press-on nail as close to the cuticles as possible, without touching them, at a 45° angle.
STEP 4: SECURE THE PRESS-ON NAIL
Lower it into place, then press firmly for 10 to 15 seconds. Repeat for each nail.
Avoid contact with water for the first 2 to 3 hours so the adhesive can set properly.
