How to apply nails
Start with CLEAN and TRIMMED nails and use the included nail file to shape your natural nails. Use the included nail buffer to gently buff all of the nails. Use the included cuticle pusher to gently push back cuticles from the nail plate. If you are comfortable doing so, trim excess cuticle skin for improved retention.
Wipe all nails with included isopropyl alcohol wipe to dehydrate the nails.
If you are using ADHESIVE TABS: Find your appropriate size tab for each nail and press each tab in the center of the nail firmly. Peel away the paper backing from each tab. Apply each nail starting at the base as close to the cuticle area, without touching the skin, at a 45 degree angle and press down firmly all the way to the tip. Hold for at least 10 seconds. Gently push on the nail from side to side to ensure proper adhesion.
If you are using NAIL GLUE: Applying one nail at a time, apply a sufficient drop of glue to the nail and gently swipe the press on from the cuticle area to the tip to evenly disperse the glue. Apply another small drop of glue to the press on and apply to the natural nail starting at the cuticle area, without touching the skin, at a 45 degree angle and press down firmly all the way to the tip. Hold for at least 10 seconds. Gently push on the nail from side to side to ensure proper adhesion.
How to remove nails
If you used ADHESIVE TABS: Gently lift nail at the edge (using included cuticle pusher if necessary) until the nail pops off from the natural nail. Gently scrape leftover adhesive using your finger or the cuticle pusher. If the adhesive is still very stuck to the nail, apply oil to the nail plate or soak the nails in soap and warm water for several minutes first and repeat above steps.
If you used GLUE: Gently lift the nail at the edge (ideally in an area that has already lifted) and apply some oil under each nail. Soak the nails in soap and warm water for several minutes and continue to slowly lift the entire press-on from the natural nail. DO NOT FORCEABLY RIP YOUR NAILS OFF!!!
**PRO TIPS**
Try to avoid getting your hands wet after applying your nail set using adhesive tabs or glue for at least 2 hours, but ideally before bed for best retention
Be VERY CAREFUL using the glue as it is easy to glue your fingers together (among other things)
Make sure that you cap your glue well after using as it will dry out easily
If you used glue to apply your nails, ideally wait until the nails start to lift from the nail plate for easier removal. DO NOT FORCEABLY RIP YOUR NAILS OFF!!! (Yes, I repeated myself for a reason)
