Applying press-ons is easier than you think — and when done right, they can look just as good as a salon set. Whether you're going for a quick weekend look or a long-lasting wear, the key is in the prep. Follow the steps below for the best results, or head to our full application guide for a detailed walkthrough.Before You Start — Prep is EverythingNo matter which method you choose, always start with clean, dry nails. Use the included cuticle pusher to gently push back your cuticles, then wipe each nail with the included alcohol pad to remove any oils or moisture. This step is key to a long-lasting hold.Method 1 — Sticky Tabs (short-term wear, 3–4 days)Prep and clean your nails as aboveSelect the correct size press-on for each fingerPeel the sticky tab and apply it to your natural nailAlign the press-on nail and press down firmly for 10–15 secondsAvoid water for at least 1 hour after application Method 2 — Nail Glue (long-term wear, up to 3–4 weeks)We recommend applying nail glue using the Nina Pool method for the strongest hold.Prep and clean your nails as aboveApply a thin layer of nail glue to your natural nailAllow the glue to sit and dry slightly — don't press the nail on just yetBefore applying, give your natural nail a quick wipe with the alcohol padApply a thin layer of glue to both your natural nail and the inside of the press-on nail, then give your natural nail one more quick wipe with the alcohol pad — this reactivates the glue and allows both surfaces to fuse together for a stronger, more secure bondAlign the press-on nail from the cuticle down and press firmly for 20–30 secondsAvoid water, washing up, and heavy hand activity for at least 1–2 hours after application

Taking your press-ons off the right way is just as important as putting them on. The golden rule? Never force or rip them off — patience here protects your natural nails. Choose whichever method works best for you:Method 1 — Warm Water Soak (gentlest option)Fill a bowl with warm, soapy waterSoak your nails for 10–15 minutesOnce you feel the nails starting to loosen, gently wiggle them from side to sideUse the included cuticle pusher to carefully lift from the sides and ease the nail offIf there's any resistance, don't force it — just soak for a few more minutes Method 2 — Cuticle Pusher (quick removal)Gently slide the cuticle pusher under the edge of the press-on at the cuticleSlowly work it along the sides to loosen the nailApply light upward pressure until the nail lifts freeAny resistance? Stop and switch to the warm water soak method instead Method 3 — Nail or Cuticle OilApply a generous amount of nail or cuticle oil around the edges of each nailLet it sit for 5–10 minutes to break down the adhesiveUse the cuticle pusher to gently ease the nails offA great option if you want to keep your natural nails nourished during the process Once your nails are off, use a cotton pad with a small amount of acetone to clean any leftover glue or adhesive from the press-on. Pop them back into their original tray to help maintain their shape and keep them protected for next time.
