Proper nail preparation is the foundation of a secure, long-lasting press-on nail application.

Preparing your natural nails correctly ensures strong adhesion and a flawless finish. Follow the steps below carefully and use the accompanying videos for visual guidance before applying your press-on nails.

STEP 1: PUSH BACK CUTICLES

Gently push back your cuticles using the provided cuticle tool.

This creates a clean nail surface and allows the press-on nails to sit flush against the natural nail for a better fit.

 

STEP 2: BUFF YOUR NAILS

Using the nail file, lightly buff the surface of your natural nails to create a slightly textured base for improved adhesion.

Avoid over-buffing, as this may weaken the natural nail.

 

STEP 3: CLEAN AND DRY YOUR NAILS

Thoroughly wipe each nail with the alcohol wipe to remove oils, dust, and residue.

Allow your nails to dry completely before application.
Avoid touching the nail surface after cleaning to prevent oil transfer and ensure proper bonding of the adhesive.

Your nails are now fully prepared and ready for press-on application.

Proceed with either nail glue or sticky tabs for best results.
