How To Apply/How To remove
HOW TO APPLY:
Use glue or double-sided gel stick pads. Use both for extra hold.
Prep your nails with the items included in your Nail Prep Kit
1: Clean and dry your hands and nails
2: Push back cuticles
3: Clip or file and shape natural nails
4: Use included alcohol wipes to dehydrate the nail beds
5: FIRST DRY FIT NAILS TO ENSURE PROPER FIT. Glue/ stick nails on one by one, pressing and holding for 15-30 seconds to ensure hold
6: Avoid water for the next hour
7: Also if you choose, you can take the Glue and add a bit to your nail bed and then stick on the double sided sticky nail Adhesives included in your Prep Kit, and Glue it to your nail bed so that the Adhesives are glued down to your nail Then place the press on nail on top. Using this method, assures that your press on nails can be reusable as well, because there is no Glue on the press on. This way you can collect press ons and wear a different one each day!
*TIP
Using a nail primer is useful to dehydrate the nail bed prior to application. Sally Beauty and Amazon offers a variety of primers and nail adhesives. IBD is great for long wear.
**Please note, when applying (especially w/Bling Nails) take care not to over bend the "C" curve by either flattening out the nail too much or by pinching the nail too tight at the side walls; this can cause the gel nail product or gems to pull away from the base. Bling, Chrome, Caviar/microbead and Foil nails are Luxe Nails and as such are not ideal for rigorous wear and tear. It is not uncommon to lose a gem.
HOW TO REMOVE:
You can remove nails permanently by clipping them down, filing, & soaking in acetone. Your nails will NOT BE REUSABLE USING THIS METHOD.
Removing & Reusing your nails:
Be patient and gentle when removing your nails so you can protect your natural nails and preserve your enhancement nail.
It’s not recommended to attempt removing newly glued nails or nails glued with resin, acrylic, or gel. To remove nails, soak hands in warm water solution of soap and natural oil. Soak for a good 10-15 mins. Using the included cuticle stick, slide the pointy flat side around the edges of your nails, gently lifting the edges. NEVER PULL OR RIP your nails off. If you experience discomfort stop immediately and try soaking your hands longer, before trying again. It is important that you never force a nail off, as this can damage your natural nails/nail plate.
Once your nails are removed, put them back on the included adhesive strip, and tuck them back into the Kiss My Polish box for later reuse! Collect and expand your nail wardrobe!
