Application & Removal
Zero-Damage Application Instructions
Approx. wear time: 2–3 weeks · All tools included in kit
- Prep: Remove nail polish. Wash and dry hands. Push back cuticles. File sides and tips, then lightly file nail surface. Clean & dehydrate with alcohol wipe.
- Size: Match Pressa nails to your natural nails. Use the numbers inside each nail tip to confirm sizing.
- Protect: Apply adhesive tabs (numbers correspond to nail sizes). These act as a nail guard for zero damage.
- Glue: Apply a thin, even layer of liquid glue over each adhesive tab, especially around the edges. Do not overfill.
- Apply: Align nail with cuticle line at a 45° angle. Press down firmly for 30-60 seconds, removing air bubbles.
- Shape: File or clip to your desired shape.
Pro Tip: For best results, apply before bed to let adhesive cure overnight. Avoid water, oil, or lotion for 1 hour.
Wear Options:
- Adhesive tabs only = short wear (3–7 days)
- Glue only = longer wear (7–14+ days)
- Tabs + glue (recommended) = zero-damage, long-lasting wear (2–3 weeks)
