Manicure Mastery

Perfect Application.

Achieve a flawless finish with your NailU luxury press-on nails. Follow these steps for salon-quality results at home.
1

The Prep

  • Gently push back your cuticles to create a clean canvas.
  • Lightly buff the natural nail surface until it appears ashy — this is vital for bonding.
  • Thoroughly clean nails with acetone to remove all oils and residue.
Key: Do not skip the acetone prep.
2

The Fit

  • Match each NailU press-on to your natural nails.
  • Gently file the edges of the press-on nail if needed to achieve a seamless, natural look.
3

The Application

  • Apply a thin, even layer of glue to both your natural nail and the press-on underside.
  • Hold at a 45° angle, align, and press firmly for 30 seconds.
  • Apply even pressure across the entire nail to eliminate air bubbles.
4

The Set

  • Avoid water and heavy activity for at least 1 hour to allow the bond to set.
  • Maintain your manicure by hydrating cuticles — but avoid oil directly on the nails.
