How do I prep and apply press-on manis?Updated 8 days ago

Great prep is the key to a long-lasting, salon-perfect press-on mani.


Prep:

- Avoid water for 1 hour before applying (and for best results, 1 hour after)

- Gently push back cuticles

- Lightly buff your nail plate

- Use the prep pad or alcohol wipe to remove dust and oils


Apply:

- Find your best fit before applying

- Instant Mani: Apply glue and press on

- Super Stick Mani: Apply the matching glue tab, then press on

- Press and hold for at least 30 seconds


Optional pro tip: Apply Nail Strengthener beforehand for added nail support and priming benefits.


Everything you need for prep is included with Super Stick Mani.
