Fairynails Press On Nails Guide
Notice
❤ All Fairynails press on nails are handcrafted and can be reused multiple times.
❤ Please correctly measure your size before placing an order. Due to hygiene reasons, we do not accept refunds if you select the incorrect size. Check out our full size guide here.
❤ We do not recommend using nail glue, as it may damage the nail pieces and render them unusable.
❤ We do not recommend using acetone-based nail removers, as they may expedite the removal process but can cause whitening or discoloration of the wearable nails, affecting their appearance.
❤ If you are a press on nail enthusiast, we strongly recommend use UV/LED Gel and a mini nail UV/LED lamp, allowing the nails to last up to one month with proper application.
How to Apply?
【Standard Preparation Steps】
➤ Push back the cuticle using the cuticle tool provided.
➤ Gently buff the surface of your nails using the nail file to create a rougher surface.
➤ Wipe your nails surface with an alcohol pad.
【Using Fairynails Black Sticky Tabs】
➤ Choose the appropriate sticky tab size, press firmly to eliminate air bubbles, and remove the protective film.
➤ Tilt the nail piece at a 45-degree angle, push it gently toward the cuticle area, and press firmly for 10-15 seconds.
➤ If you have a nail lamp, cure the nails for 60-180 seconds after completing the above steps:
✧ Light Colors: 1-2 mins
✧ With rhinestones or decorations: 2-3 mins
✧ Dark/black Colors: 3-4 mins
➤ If using only sticky tabs, avoid contact with water for the first 4-6 hours after application.
How to Gently Remove and Preserve Wearable Nails
【For Sticky Tabs (No UV/LED Curing)】
➤ Soak your hands in warm water for 1-2 minutes.
➤ Use a cuticle stick to gently lift the edges of the nail and slowly work your way underneath until the nail piece comes off.
➤ Perform the entire process while keeping your hands submerged in warm water for easier removal.
【For Sticky Tabs/UV Gel (Cured with UV/LED Lamp)】
➤ Apply cuticle oil (makeup remover oil or edible oil) around your nails.
➤ Use a cuticle stick to lift one edge of the nail piece slightly.
➤ Continue applying oil into the gap as you gradually work underneath the nail piece.
➤ Slowly loosen the nail piece until it detaches completely.
➤ If any adhesive residue remains on the nail piece, gently scrape it off with a cuticle stick at an angle.
By following these steps, you can avoid damaging your natural nails or the press on nails.
Congratulations—you now have a brand-new set of press on nails that can be reused countless times! Alternatively, you can save them as part of your collection.
