FAQ

Nails

How long can the nails last?

Temporary Wear (up to 4-7 days): With the correct prep, your nails will last up to 4-7 days with our sticky tabs included in your nail kit.

Extended Wear (up to 3 weeks): For nails applied with our nail glue with the correct prep, they can last up to 3 weeks.

Note that these estimates can vary depending on your lifestyle and whether you used the correct application technique!

**Make sure to always remove any oils from your nail bed by wiping them with an alcohol pad (provided in the kit), before applying the sticky tabs or glue!

Storage After Removal

Simply remove any sticky tab or glue residue on the nail and give them a quick wipe with the alcohol pad before storing them in the nail palette for future reuse.

How do I apply the press on's?

Step 1: Prep!

DO NOT miss this step as prepping your nails correctly is essential to allowing your press on's to stay on as long as possible!

1. Start by pushing back your cuticles using the cuticle stick & filing down your nails.

2. Size nail-esque nails by placing them above your natural nail beds and choosing the ones that have the most suitable fit.

3. Gently buff your nails using the nail filer in the kit.

4. Wipe your nails with the alcohol pad. This will remove the natural oils on your nailbeds which prevents the adhesive from working as well!

Step 2: Choose Adhesive

Option 1) Sticky Tabs (Short term wear)

• Choose the sticky tab that is the correct size for each of your nail beds, and apply the adhesive.

Option 2) Nail Glue (Longer term wear)

• Apply a pea sized amount of nail glue on your natural nail, and on the back of the nail-esque nails.

• Be careful not to touch the glue with your fingertips, as it bonds quickly!

Step 3: Press!

Apply nail-esque nails at a 45 degree angle and press down firmly for 20-30 seconds, ensuring you remove all air bubbles upon application.

Tips!

• To extend the wear of your press on's, avoid water contact 3 hours after application (I know... we always suggest to go to the bathroom beforehand 🤣) but this will really extend the wear time of the sticky tabs or glue!

• Do not touch your nails with your fingertips AFTER you've wiped them with the alcohol pad, as that will add back the oils on your nails that you removed with the alcohol pad.

• Make sure to choose the right SIZE for your nails that aren't too large, or too small, as this might cause nail-esque nails to fall off pre-maturely! Having press on's either too small or large for you means that water can get under your press on's, and interact with the glue underneath which might cause discolouration or pre-mature lifting.

How do I remove them?

You can easily remove your press on's with NO damage by soaking them in hot water, soap and oil (any kind such as cuticle oil, kitchen oil or body oil) for 10-15 minutes!

** Note: Some nails may take longer than others to come off depending on how much glue you used, and how long it's been since you've applied your press on's.

Can I reuse them?

100%!

Our nails are designed to be super durable and long-lasting so that they can be reused many times!

Simply buff off the residue glue from the nail using our petite nail filer and place them back in the nail palette for next time's use 😊
