Essential Tools for DIY Press-On Nails

    •    Press-On Nail Kits: Start with a quality set like the 30pcs Full Cover Press-On Nail Tips.

Step-by-Step Guide to Applying Press-On Nails

1. Prep Your Natural Nails

Clean and file your nails to the desired shape. Use a cuticle pusher like the Double Head Cuticle Pusher to gently push back cuticles.


2. Buff and Remove Shine

Buff your nails to remove natural oils and ensure proper adhesion. The Washable Nail Files work great for this step.


3. Apply Nail Glue or Adhesive Tabs

Use 6 in 1 Nail Glue Gel for long-lasting wear or Clear Double-side Adhesive Tabs for a temporary option.


4. Press and Hold

Align the Press-On with your natural nail, press down firmly and hold for 10-15 seconds. Cure with the 36W Pink UV Nail Lamp for added strength.

*PRO TIP - Pay special attention not to apply to much glue, you don't want glue spilling over the sides onto the cuticle.


5. Seal with a Top Coat

Finish with a layer of Super Top Coat and cure in 36W Pink UV Nail Lamp for 30 seconds for shine and durability.
