How do I apply press on nails (using nail glue)?

Applying press-on nails with nail glue is a straightforward process. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get a professional-looking result:

What You’ll Need:

• Press-on nails
• Nail glue
• Nail file
• Nail buffer
• Cuticle pusher (optional)
• Rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover

Steps:

1. Prepare Your Nails:

   • Remove Old Polish: Start with clean, bare nails. If you have old polish or residues, remove them using nail polish remover.
   • Shape Your Natural Nails: File your natural nails to your desired shape and length. This helps the press-ons adhere better.
   • Buff the Surface: Lightly buff the surface of your natural nails to create a rough texture. This helps the glue stick better.
   • Clean Your Nails: Wipe your nails with rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover to remove any oils or debris.

2. Select and Size Press-On Nails:

   • Choose the Right Size: Before applying the glue, find the press-on nails that best fit each of your natural nails. The press-ons should cover the nail bed without overlapping onto your skin.
   • File if Necessary: If needed, file the edges of the press-on nails to ensure they fit comfortably.
