About Press-On Nails

As we are in lockdown in most places and salons being shut down for safety reasons. Press-on nails have become a popular trend where nail artists and local drug stores are creating press-on nails. If the salons can't be open, the nail lovers have created another accessible way to have the best nails. 

Size Matters

As you all know or may not know, our nails are all different sizes. Nail tips come in 10 different sizes where you are required to measure each nail bed to know what size would fit you the best. After this step, you need to consider the length of the nail that would be your everyday need. Finally, the shape is another factor to size from a square, coffin, ballerina etc.

Cleanse First

Prep is extremely important; this step will help your press-on to last longer. First, start with clean nails and no excess oil. Make sure your cuticles are pushed back and you have applied alcohol on your nails. No excess nail polish on your nails. 

Time To Glue On

If you're looking for a temporary fix then sticky tabs are your best friend for 1-3 days of press on’s. But nail glue is to be applied all over your nail and the press on, pressed for about 20 seconds for lasting results up to 10 days.
