What are press-on nails?
Do you always want to stay ahead with the latest nail trends? Are you looking to save money or simply lack the time to apply nail polish every day? Then you should consider press-on nails.Press-on nails are made of acrylic in various lengths and shapes, applied to your natural nails using either nail glue or adhesive tabs. With press-on nails, you can achieve salon-like nails in no time.
Benefits of press-on nails
If you can't use nail polish or other types of artificial nails daily, press-on nails are the solution for you. Press-on nails allow you to have beautiful nails for special occasions since you can quickly and easily remove them and store them for the next time you want nice nails.Depending on how well you prepare your natural nails and how well you care for your press-on nails, they can last up to 14 days. The more nail glue you use, the better they will hold, so you can adjust the durability according to your needs. If you want to change your press-on nails more frequently, we recommend using our Pro Press-on Tabs. With these, you can easily remove the nails after just a few days of use. Additionally, you can reuse the press-on nails multiple times, getting many uses out of them.

Here's how to apply your nails: All DUFFBEAUTY's Press-On nails come in a box with included nail glue, a buffer, and a nail file, so you can use the nails right away. With just a few simple steps, you can achieve salon-like nails - let us show you how.

First and foremost, it's important to always apply your Press-On nails on clean, dry nails. Remember to buff the nails and clean them with nail polish remover to remove any dust and natural oils from the nails. Now you're ready for the application process.

With nail glue:

  1. Choose the size that best fits your natural nails. Our nails are labeled with numbers on the inside, making it easy to find the perfect match.
  2. Apply the glue to your natural nails and wait 3-5 seconds until the glue becomes tacky.
  3. Next, apply the Press-On nails. Start by placing them near the cuticle and make sure to keep them straight. Press down for about 30 seconds.

With Pro Press-on Tabs:

1. Start by thoroughly washing and drying your hands. Use a cuticle stick to gently push back your cuticles and clean your nails with an alcohol wipe.
2. Select appropriate Press-On nails and tabs. Ensure they cover the nail surface without extending beyond the edges.
3. Remove the protective film from the Press-on tab and apply it to your natural nail. Press firmly for 30-40 seconds.
4. Place the Press-On nail at the base of your natural nail and press down for 40-60 seconds for optimal durability.
5. Then, position the Press-On nail completely at the base of your natural nail, preferably under the cuticle for a neater and more comfortable finish. Press the nail down and maintain even pressure over the entire nail surface for 40-60 seconds to ensure optimal durability.

How to gently remove your press-ons:

When you want to remove your press-on nails, it's a simple process. All you need is oil, warm soapy water, and a nail file to buff away any excess nail glue. Remember, never pull or force the nail off as this can damage your natural nail.

With glue: All you need to do is soak your fingers in warm soapy water for 20-30 minutes. This will gradually dissolve the glue, allowing you to gently peel the nails off from the sides.

With Instant Pro Press-on Tabs:

1.  Apply nail or baby oil along the cuticles and massage it in.
2.  Soak the nails in warm soapy water for 5-10 minutes.
3.  Gently loosen the nails by lifting them from the sides.

    This way, you can remove your press-ons gently and take care of your natural nails. Remember, DUFFBEAUTY's Press-On Nails are reusable, so you can easily store them for later use another day.
