“Mastering the Art of Press-On Nails: Tips for Application and Long-Lasting Wear”

Our Opinion


Hey there, fellow beauty enthusiasts! Are you tired of spending hours at the salon getting your nails done, only to have them chip and break within days? Well, we have the solution for you – press on nails! Not only are they a quick and easy way to get gorgeous nails in minutes, but they can also last for up to 2 weeks with the right application and care. And who better to teach you how to apply press on nails and make them last than the staff of the parent game, am I right?

First things first, let’s talk about how to apply press on nails like a pro. Start by prepping your natural nails – make sure they are clean, dry, and free of any oils or lotions. Next, select the appropriate size press on nail for each of your natural nails – you want them to fit snugly without overlapping the skin. Apply a small drop of nail glue to the back of the press on nail and press it firmly onto your natural nail for a few seconds. Voila, instant glam!

Now, onto the important part – making your press on nails last. To ensure they stay put for up to 2 weeks, follow these simple tips from the staff of the parent game. Avoid exposing your nails to water for the first few hours after application to allow the glue to fully bond. Be gentle with your nails – avoid using them as tools and try not to pick at them. Use a top coat every few days to seal in the edges and prevent lifting. And finally, try to avoid prolonged exposure to heat, as this can weaken the glue and cause your press on nails to fall off prematurely.

So there you have it, folks! With a little know-how and some TLC, you can rock fabulous press on nails for up to 2 weeks. Say goodbye to salon appointments and hello to long-lasting, hassle-free nails. Happy pressing!
