    GLUE WEAR TIME TIP

    1-3 days : Apply a thin line of nail glue from the cuticle to the natural nail's tip.
    4-6 days : Apply small dot of glue to natural nail
    7-14 days: Apply a small dot of glue to your nail and a thin layer of glue on the back of the press-on nail.


    FOR ACETONE OR NAIL POLISH REMOVER

    Submerge nails in acetone and soak for 2-5 minutes before continuing with steps 3-6.

    How to Apply Custom Press On Nails Using Adhesive Tabs + Glue

    Apply the nail tabs after following the nail prep instructions. Then, either over the tabs or on the back of the press-on nail, apply nail glue. For a few seconds, press and keep the nails in place. The use of two adhesives provides for a longer wear time.
