To ensure a safe and comfortable fit for press-on nails, always measure your natural nails against the press-ons before applying adhesive. Choose the size that best matches your nail bed without overlapping the skin.

Measuring Your Nails

  1. Place the press-on nail over your natural nail.
  2. Ensure it covers the nail bed entirely without touching the skin.
  3. If it’s too large, file the edges gently for a better fit.

Applying Adhesive Safely

  1. Clean your natural nails with rubbing alcohol to remove oils.
  2. Apply a small drop of nail glue or adhesive tab to the press-on nail.
  3. Press firmly onto your natural nail for 10-15 seconds.
