How to apply

What’s included in a press on kit:

• Glue

• Mini cuticle pusher 

• Mini coarse/fine nail file

• Nail set

Instructions:

• Push back cuticles using the flat side of cuticle pusher.

• Using the nail file, file the entire nail bed to remove shine and rough surface allowing for better adhesion.

• Before adhesion. Test nails. Put each nail on its respective nails to check sizing and file as needed. 

• Cut glue tip to allow glue to flow. For short term wear, only apply glue along the border of your nails. For long term use, saturate full nail bed with a layer of glue and then apply the nail, pressing firmly for 7 seconds. Tip: apply glue, place press on nail close to cuticle parallel to nail bed then just press press on nail down onto nail bed.

How to size

Using a soft millimeter (mm) measuring tape* measure the WIDEST part of nail bed on each finger starting with the thumb. MEASURE ONLY THE NAIL BED, NOT THE SKIN ON THE SIDES. Measure both hands in case there’s differences. 

*If you don’t have a measuring tape, purchase at local craft store or print one here, remember to print full size.
