How to get your press on nails to last 3+ weeks!
1. Start with a good quality press on nail set (they can be affordable, see slides for recommendations)
2. Get a nail drill/file (mine was $1.25 from dollar tree)
3. Scratch up the back of the nails with the nail file
4. Nail prep is important!! Cuticles need to be pushed back and trimmed. Nails need to be cut super short. Tops of the nails need to be buffed with a file. Dehydrate with an alcohol pad.
5. Use a good glue. My favorite is from sally beauty! And use a lot of it!
6. Don't wash hands or put on lotions and oils until
30 min to an hour after you're done gluing them on!

Press-on nails have become increasingly popular for their convenience and style. To achieve long-lasting wear, start by selecting a high-quality nail set; brands like SHEIN and Etsy offer great options on a budget. Before application, it's crucial to prepare your natural nails: push back cuticles, trim nails, and buff the nail surface for better adhesion. Using a good nail file, scratch the back of the press-on nails to create a rough texture that helps the glue bond effectively. Applying dehydrating solutions, such as alcohol wipes, ensures that your nails are residue-free. When it comes to glue, opting for a trusted brand like Sally Beauty's Nail Glue is essential. Apply generously to the back of the press-on and your natural nail, and adhere them quickly to avoid mishaps. After you've applied your press-ons, resist the urge to wash your hands or apply any lotions for at least 30 minutes. This step is vital to ensure the glue sets properly and your nails stay intact. By following these tips, you can enjoy stunning press-on nails that last for weeks!
