FAQ
How long do these press-on nails last?
It depends on your application method:
- Insanely Sticky Tabs (sold separately): lasts up to 10 days with normal daily activity including showering and household chores. Allergy-safe.
- Press-on glue (not included): lasts up to 3 weeks but reduces reusability. Not recommended if you have an acrylate allergy.
- Regular jelly tabs (included): lasts 1-3 days, ideal for short-term or event wear. Allergy-safe.
Regardless of method, longevity depends on nail prep. The cleaner and drier your nails before application, the longer they stay on.
Are these press-ons reusable?
Yes. Each set can be reused up to 4 times if you use our Insanely Sticky Tabs or the included regular jelly tabs. To reuse, remove them carefully using cuticle oil or warm water, clean off any residue, and store them back in the tray. Wipe with alcohol before re-applying. Note that using press-on glue will reduce reusability.
What if I have flat nail beds?
Submerge the nails in hot water for around 8 seconds, remove and pat dry with a clean lint-free towel, then press them firmly against a flat surface until your desired curvature is reached. The heat makes the gel pliable enough to mold to your nail bed curvature. Hold in place for a few seconds until they cool and set.
Do I need a UV lamp?
No, our press-ons require no curing or lamps. Just size, apply, and press!
Are these press-ons vegan & cruelty-free?
Yes, our press-on nails are 100% vegan and cruelty-free.
