Watch the video or follow our step-by-step tutorial below.
Remove the Press-ons
Step 1: Soak your nails
Fill a bowl with warm water and add a bit of your favourite hand soap. Soak your nails for at least 10 minutes. For an even gentler removal, you can add a few drops of cuticle oil to the water.
Step 2: Remove the Press-on Nail
When you used Glue pads: gently slide the Woodstick under the edges. Lift the Press-on Nail off.
When you used Nail Glue: gently slide the Woodstick under the edges and add a few drops of Remover to dissolve the glue. Slowly lift the Press-on Nail off. If it does not come off easily, add more Remover between the nail and the Press-on Nail. Remove any residue from your natural nails with Remover on a Nail Wipe.
Step 3: Nail care
Gently massage the Cuticle Oil into the cuticles using soft, circular motions so it can absorb properly. Your nails are now ready for a new press-on set.
Are Press-On Nails Reusable?
Yes, when applied with Glue Pads, your press-ons are reusable. However, with Nail Glue, we can't guarantee reusability as the adhesive residue left on the press-on can affect its fit, often making it unusable for future applications.
Follow the next steps to get your press-ons ready for another wear:
Step 1: Remove Glue Pads
You’ll probably see the glue pads still stuck in the inside of the press-on nails. Carefully peel them off with your fingers or use a woodstick.
Step 2: Clean and dry
Once all glue pads are removed, clean your press-on nails with a bit of cleaner on a nail wipe to disinfect them and remove any oils, dust or bacteria. Let them air dry completely.
Step 3: Store safely
Store your press-ons in their original box. This keeps them organised and protected from dust and bending. Always keep them in a cool, dry place and out of direct sunlight or heat to prevent them from losing their shape or colour.
