ALMOND PRESS ON NAILS

Here’s a guide on how to apply and remove them, what you’ll need, and how long they can last:

How to apply almond press-on nails

1. Prep Your Nails: Clean your natural nails with nail polish remover to remove any oils or residue. Push back your cuticles and buff the surface of your nails slightly to help the adhesive grip better.
2. Size Your Nails: Match each press-on nail to your natural nails to find the correct size for each finger. If a nail is too wide, you can file the sides until you get a perfect fit.
3. Apply Adhesive: Depending on your preference and the kit you have, you can use either adhesive tabs or nail glue. Adhesive tabs might be easier to remove and less damaging, while glue will provide a longer-lasting hold.
4. Attach the Nails: Place the press-on nail just above your cuticle (do not place it on the cuticle), press it down firmly, and hold for a few seconds. Ensure it’s aligned correctly before pressing down.
5. Secure the Nails: Once all nails are applied, press down on each one again for a few more seconds to ensure they are firmly attached.

How to remove almond press-on nails

• Soak Your Nails: Fill a bowl with warm, soapy water and soak your hands for 10-15 minutes. This will help loosen the glue or adhesive tabs.
• Gently Pry the Nails Off: Use a wooden stick or a cuticle pusher to gently lift the edges of the press-on nails. If they don’t come off easily, soak for a few more minutes before trying again.
• Clean and Moisturize: Once all the nails are off, use nail polish remover to clean any residual glue from your natural nails and moisturize your hands and nails with lotion or cuticle oil.
