3. How to Apply Press-On Nails: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

Follow these simple steps for a flawless application that will look like it was done by a professional.

1. Prep Your Cuticles: Gently push back your cuticles with an orange stick to create a clean base.

2. Sand the Nail: Use the buffer side of the file to lightly sand the nail surface in a vertical direction. This removes shine and helps the adhesive stick better.

3. Clean thoroughly: Run the alcohol wipe over each nail to remove dust and natural oils. Do not touch your nails again after this step!

Choosing and Applying the Adhesive

4. Choose the Right Adhesive: Select the right size of double-sided tape or the right amount of glue for each nail. The correct size is essential for a good hold.

Correct Placement of the Press-On Nail

5. Apply the Tip: Position the artificial nail starting from the base, at a 45° angle. Gently slide it towards the tip of the nail and then press firmly for 10-15 seconds. This technique prevents air bubbles and ensures perfect adhesion.
