Safely remove your press ons

Hi! Let me show you how to safely remove your press on nails without causing damage to your natural nail!

Step one - start with the basics

- a bowl of warm soapy water

- cuticle oil

- a removal tool

- a buffer

Step two- break the seal

- you’ll want to be sure to break the glue seal so the oil and water can do its job and break down the glue

Step three- apply oil

- the glue I use is broken down by oil so I’m sure to get some under the press on nail for easy removal

Step four- soak your nails off

- soak your nails on the soapy water for 3-5 minutes

Step five- pop those babies off

- use your removal tool to lift up on the edges of the nail, is you feel resistance STOP and apply more oil and soak again

Step six- buff

- once your press ons are removed you’ll want to buff off any excess glue that was left behind

Step seven- rehydrate

- rehydrate those nails girly apply some more cuticle oil to your nails so they can rehydrate and be ready for another set in 24-48 hours!

Hope this helps 🫶🏻

... Read moreRemoving press-on nails doesn't have to be damaging to your natural nails! It's crucial to follow proper techniques to ensure nail health. To prepare for removal, gather essential items like warm, soapy water and cuticle oil. The key is to break the adhesive seal effectively, allowing for easier removal. Applying oil beneath the press-on nails will help dissolve the glue, making it easier to lift them off without resistance. After soaking for a few minutes, use a specialized removal tool to gently lift the edges. Remember to buff off any left-behind glue afterward for a clean finish. Finally, rehydrate your nails with more cuticle oil and allow them time to recover before applying a new set in 24-48 hours. Keep your nails healthy and beautiful with these pro tips!
