False Nails & Tips

Press-on nails applied with the double-sided adhesive tabs included in the pack last 1–3 days for temporary wear. Applying with nail glue instead of adhesive tabs extends wear to 5–10 days. To maximise longevity, clean and buff nails before application, press firmly for 30+ seconds per nail, and avoid prolonged water immersion (wear gloves when washing dishes).

Yes — press-on nails can be reused 2–3 times if removed carefully and cleaned properly. After removal, soak a cotton ball with acetone-free nail polish remover and gently clean off any remaining glue from the back of the press-on. Store in the original box. On the second application, use nail glue rather than adhesive tabs for stronger reattachment.

Soak your fingertips in warm water for 10–15 minutes to loosen the adhesive, then gently use an orange stick to lift each nail from the sides — never force them off. Alternatively, apply a small amount of acetone or nail glue remover around the nail edge and wait for the bond to dissolve before lifting. Avoid pulling, as this can thin and damage natural nails.

Press-on nails come as finished, decorated or plain nails that simply adhere directly to your natural nail — ready to wear in minutes. Acrylic nail tips are extensions you attach to the natural nail tip, then apply acrylic or gel over the top to create a custom nail set — similar to a professional salon process. Press-ons are faster and easier; acrylic tips offer more customisation.
