How to apply press on nails:

Step 1: Wash your hands and dry them thoroughly

Step 2: Trim or clip your nails/push back your cuticles with a cuticle pusher or an orange wood stick. 

Step 3: Etch (buff) your nail plate using a nail file on each finger.

Step 4: Wipe each nail plate with an alcohol wipe (alcohol from a bottle and a piece of paper towel work great as well) or acetone applied on a lint free cloth to dehydrate the nail plate.

Step 5: Pick the correct size press on nail that fits comfortable without being forced and organize the nails on a lint/dirt free surface for easy application.

Step 6: Apply glue to your pinky nail plate on your dominant hand and apply the correct size press on nail and press firmly for 10-30 seconds then continue to apply to the rest of your nails. ( you can apply in any direction that works best for you/for an even more temporary look you can use an adhesive instead)

* Press on nails, when applied with nail glue, generally last 7-10 days with gentle use. Keep nail glue or sticky adhesive on hand for a quick fix if a nail pops off.
