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

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

• Add an oil of your choice (coconut, olive oil, etc) if desired

• 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

• Removal kits and cuticle oil available here

• Purchase the Replacement Nail Fee from the Extra Supplies section and enter the necessary info (size, length, shape, which set it's for, which finger, etc)

• 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

Email is preferred. Please email me directly or use the contact form on the site.

• Business Hours:

Monday - Friday 9am- 5pm

• Non-operational on:

Weekends, all holidays

• Yes! I highly recommend investing in a cheap e-file if you're regularly wearing press on nails. Using an e-file, you can successfully remove the old glue from the back of the press-on. This will create a new, rough surface and allow you to re-apply with new glue

Once USPS obtains your package and scans it into their system, I no longer have any control over it.

If mail is frequently stolen at your residence:

• Use the Order Notes to request signature confirmation and I'll happily add it on to your order for no extra fee
• This ensures that USPS must hand the package directly to you or alert you to pick it up at the post office

If your package was lost in transit:

• File a claim with USPS

*** Missing/lost packages are a disappointment and loss for us both. A lot of love, creativity, expensive product and time goes into each set. Unfortunately, I can not afford to remake orders that get lost or stolen. Thank you for your understanding xo
