How to apply

Taking the time to prep your nails properly when applying your press-ons will directly determine how well and how long they'll stay on

  • buff your nail beds with the rough side of the buffer block
  • gently push your cuticles back
  • use the alcohol wipes to cleanse and dry your nail beds
  • apply glue to the center of your nail bed and a small drop inside the press-on
  • line the press-on up properly with your natural nail and begin laying it flat, from the base to the tip
  • apply pressure for at least 10 seconds
  • avoid contact with water for at least an hour after application

additional tips:

- follow the same prep process if using adhesive tabs

- if you have naturally oily skin and nail beds, use a dehydrator after prep, before applying the glue

- nail glue can be combined with adhesive tabs for extra grip

Removal

  • Soak your nails in warm, soapy water for up to 5 minutes

  • Add an oil of your choice to help loosen the nail (optional)

  • Gently slide cuticle stick underneath the nail to remove

  • If it's still stuck, don't rip it off. Just repeat the process

  • Aftercare: gently buff away the old glue, cleanse with an alcohol wipe and apply cuticle oil if possible

Stolen or lost packages

GiLi Nails is not responsible for lost, stolen or delayed packages. GiLi Nails is not required to issue refunds or free replacements for lost or stolen packages.

Once USPS scans a package into their system, USPS becomes fully responsible for the package and GiLi Nails no longer bears any accountability.

If mail is frequently stolen at your residence:

  • Use the Order Notes to request signature confirmation and the service will be added on to your shipping label for free
  • This ensures that USPS must hand the package directly to you or alert you to pick it up at the post office where it's being held

If your package was lost in transit or marked delivered and you're unable to locate it:

Replacement nails

  • Please note: if the replacement fee is included in an order with sets, it may take up to 14 days before the order is shipped. If you need the replacement(s) ASAP, order separately

How to re-use press-ons

I highly recommend investing in a cheap e-file. Gently file off the old glue from the back of the press-on. Wipe any debris away with an alcohol wipe. This will create a new, rough surface which new glue will adhere to.
