TIPS & TRICKS

APPLICATION

When applying your Instant Mani press-on nails, it's easier if you start with your smallest nails first. 

Remember, the more glue you use, the longer your nails will stay stuck. For the maximum time, apply glue to both your natural and the back of your Instant Mani press-on nails. 

You may have oily nail beds and just not realise. Oily nail beds are our kryptonite. So, if you have some acetone or rubbing alcohol handy, give your nails a quick wipe down before you start applying your press-on nails. If you only have nail polish remover just make sure it doesn't contain any moisturising ingredients or oils, most do.

If you've opted for adhesive tabs under our transparent press-on nails, try sticking the adhesive tab to your press-on nail first. This can help alleviate any air bubbles that may otherwise show through. 

Try to avoid getting your nails wet for a few hours, giving the glue enough time to dry completely.  

REMOVAL

Need a hand removing your Instant Mani press-on nails? Firstly soak your nails in hot soapy water for 15 minutes. Then using your cuticle stick, gently push under the sides of the nail to break the glue seal and create a gap between your natural nail and your Instant Mani. Get some cooking oil (Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Vegetable, etc) and massage that into your cuticle and into the gap you've created. Return to soaking in your hot soapy water, then after a few minutes get your cuticle stick again and try to lift the nail off. If it's ready it will come off, never force it.
