There are several methods to apply press-on nails safely and effectively. Here are the most common:

1. adhesive pads:

• Application: Adhesive pads are double-sided, sticky pads that are applied to the natural nail and the press-on. You simply remove the protective film, press the pad onto your natural nail and then press the press-on onto it.
• Advantages: Easy to apply, no drying time, gentle on natural nails, ideal for short periods of wear or frequent changes.

1. Liquid nail glue:

• How to use: Apply a small amount of liquid nail glue to the natural nail and/or the press-on and press the nail firmly. Hold for a few seconds until it is securely attached.
• Advantages: Longer lasting and stronger adhesion, ideal for special occasions or longer periods of wear.

The choice between adhesive pads and liquid nail glue depends on what you prefer.

Adhesive pads are great if you like things quick and easy. They are easy to apply, are gentle on your natural nails and you can remove the press-ons without any problem. Perfect if you want to change your look often!

Liquid nail glue keeps your nails longer and stronger, which is ideal if you wear the nails for special occasions or have an active daily routine.

However, you need a little more patience and caution when applying and removing it.

If you want to stay flexible and change more often, adhesive pads are your go-to. For longer and stronger durability, we recommend liquid nail glue.

Both options have their advantages, so just try out what works best for you!

Nail preparation is crucial for the durability of press-on nails - thorough preparation can make all the difference in how long the nails last. Don't neglect this step to get the best possible result!

1. Nail preparation:

• Push back cuticles: Gently push back cuticles to create a smooth surface for the press-ons and to maximize the adhesive surface.
• Roughen nails: Lightly roughening the nail surface with a nail buffer helps to improve adhesion.
• Cleaning: Make sure to clean your natural nails thoroughly with the included cleaning pad to remove any remaining dust, oils and dirt. This will ensure better adhesion of the press-ons.

Other tips to maximize the durability of your nails:

• Dry nails: Make sure your nails are completely dry before applying the press-ons. Moisture can affect adhesion and cause the nails to peel off more quickly.
• Avoid oils and lotions: Avoid using hand creams or nail oils shortly before applying the press-ons, as these can impair the adhesive strength.
• Correct amount of glue: If you use liquid nail glue, be careful not to use too much or too little. A thin, even layer is ideal to ensure a strong bond.
• Firm pressure and holding time: Press the press-on nails firmly onto the natural nail and hold them in place for at least 30 seconds to ensure they adhere well. This step is especially important to avoid air pockets, which can reduce adhesion.
• Avoid water after application: Avoid submerging your hands in water for the first few hours after applying the press-ons. Water can weaken the adhesive surface before the adhesive has fully cured.

The durability of press-on nails depends on various factors, such as the condition of the natural nail, the length of the press-ons and the care after application. In general, press-ons can last up to two weeks.

However, for optimal visual appearance and for hygiene reasons, it is recommended to change the nails every week or so. This will keep the look fresh and prevent potential buildup or wear.

There are several reasons why press-on nails may not stick well. Here are some common causes:

Inadequate nail preparation:

If the natural nails are not thoroughly cleaned or degreased, oils and dirt can impair adhesion. Roughening the nail surface is also important to provide the glue with a better surface to adhere to.

Incorrect gluing method:

The choice between adhesive pads and liquid nail glue will affect the durability. Adhesive pads often offer a shorter durability than liquid glue. If you use glue, a layer that is too thin or too thick could also affect the adhesion.

air bubbles:

Air bubbles that occur when applying the glue or when attaching the press-ons can weaken the bond and cause the nails to come loose.

Moisture:

If the nails are not completely dry or you come into contact with water quickly after application, this can reduce the adhesive strength.

Natural nails are too smooth or greasy:

Natural nails that are very smooth or have a naturally oily surface offer less adhesion for the press-ons. Thorough cleaning and light roughening can help here.

Unfavorable nail length or shape:

Longer press-ons or those with extreme shapes may be more prone to breaking or loosening, especially if subjected to frequent mechanical stress.

Excessive stress:

Activities that place a lot of stress on the nails, such as opening cans or frequently submerging your hands in water, can reduce the durability of the press-ons.

Lack of care after installation:

It is important to take care of the nails after application, for example by wearing gloves when doing housework and avoiding excessive contact with water or chemicals.

If you keep these points in mind, you can improve the durability of your press-on nails and enjoy them for longer.

To find the right size for your soft gel press-on nails, follow these steps:

Choice of different sizes: Our sets offer 30 different sizes to ensure that there is a size that fits everyone. This allows you to customize the nails.

Fitting: Take a press-on nail and hold it to your natural nail. Make sure that the press-on nail covers the entire width of your natural nail without touching the skin. It should fit well at the edges without being too narrow or too wide.

Choosing the size: If you are unsure between two sizes, choose the smaller size. A slightly smaller press-on nail looks more natural, sits better and does not rest on the skin. This leads to a more aesthetically pleasing and natural result.

These steps will help you find the perfect size for your press-on nails so that they fit well, are comfortable to wear and look visually appealing.

Everything you need to use the Softgel Press-On Nails is included in the package. Here is a brief overview so you can get started right away:

• Nail buffer: Use this to slightly roughen the surface of your natural nails – this will ensure the press-ons adhere better.
• Cleaning pad: Cleans thoroughly and removes oil and dirt so that the nails adhere optimally.
• Rosewood stick: Gently push back your cuticles to create a smooth surface for the press-ons.
• Adhesive stickers or nail glue: Decide for yourself whether you prefer to attach the nails with adhesive stickers or liquid glue – for your perfect hold.
• Press-On Nails: The finished nails that you can easily apply to your natural nails.

With these tools you are well equipped to create a beautiful, long-lasting manicure in no time!

It doesn't matter if the adhesive sticker is a little smaller; it still offers sufficient hold.

Make sure that the width of the sticker matches the width of your natural nail so that the press-on nails stay in place securely. If the sticker is a little shorter and does not cover the entire nail surface, the hold should still be sufficient. However, a smaller adhesive surface means that the hold may not be as strong as with a larger sticker.

Therefore, it is important to use as large an adhesive surface as possible to maximize adhesion and ensure that the nails last a long time and sit comfortably.

Yes, you can reuse press-on nails as long as they still look good to you. Whether you reapply them is a matter of personal preference - the key is whether the nails still look good and suit you. However, keep in mind that reusing them may be more difficult with liquid nail glue as it is more sticky and the nails could easily be damaged in the process. It is entirely up to you to decide when it is time to change them or keep wearing them.

Yes, press-on nails are suitable for you if you are allergic to gel or shellac. They cannot cause allergic reactions and are a safe alternative.

Yes, you can adjust Softgel Press-On Nails before applying them. You can file or trim them to better match the shape and length of your natural nails. Use a file or nail clippers to achieve the desired shape and length.

However, be careful not to damage the sealant on some models. This sealant protects the design and the surface of the nails.

If the sealant is broken, the design may peel off, so be careful not to affect the texture and appearance of the press-ons.

To avoid air bubbles under the Softgel Press-On nails, especially when using adhesive pads, follow these steps:

Prepare nails thoroughly:

1. Make sure your natural nails are clean and dry. Use a cleaning pad to remove any residue of oil or dirt. Well-prepared nails will help the adhesive pads adhere better.

Correct selection of adhesive pads:

1. Choose adhesive pads that fit the size of your natural nails. Adhesive pads that are too small may not adhere sufficiently and increase the risk of air bubbles.

Correct placement of the adhesive pads:

1. Place the adhesive pads at the base of the nail first and slowly push them forward at a shallow angle. This will help prevent air bubbles by forcing the air out as you place the pad on the nail.

Even pressure:

1. Press the adhesive pads firmly and evenly onto the natural nail. Hold the pressure for a few seconds to ensure that the pad adheres well and no air bubbles are trapped.

Applying the Press-Ons:

1. Remove the protective film from the adhesive pad and place the press-on nail at a shallow angle, starting at the base of the nail. Then slowly press the nail towards the tip of the nail to force the air out. Hold the nail firmly for at least 30 seconds to ensure a secure bond.

Avoiding subsequent shifting:

1. After the press-ons are applied, avoid moving them. Good initial placement will help prevent air bubbles.

By using this careful application method, especially by placing the adhesive pads at a flat angle and applying the press-ons slowly, you can ensure that no air bubbles are created and that the nails adhere firmly and without any air pockets.

Yes, you can perform all your daily activities with soft gel press-on nails.

However, it should be noted that the more stress the nails are subjected to, the shorter their lifespan may be.

Various factors influence the durability, such as the condition of your natural nail, the length of the press-on nails and the type of activities performed.

For example, shorter nails often hold better than longer ones during more intense activities. Preparation of the nails also plays a crucial role: if they are properly degreased and clean, the press-ons will adhere better.

Everyone has individual experiences, but in general, most everyday tasks can be accomplished easily with Press-Ons.

A "greenie" may look a little concerning, but it's usually harmless and nothing to worry about. This discoloration could occur when moisture builds up under the nail. If you notice a greenie, simply remove the affected press-on nail and clean your natural nail thoroughly with mild soap and warm water. Disinfect the area with an antiseptic and allow the nail to air dry for a few days.

Most of the time, the discoloration disappears on its own and there is no need to worry. The important thing is to always keep your nails well-dry and clean to avoid such situations. It is a harmless and easily manageable issue.
