Press-on nails are one of the easiest ways to achieve a salon-quality manicure at home. When applied correctly, high-quality press-on nails can last up to two weeks and look just like acrylic or gel nails.
Follow this simple step-by-step guide to apply your Nali Nails with a flawless finish.
Step 1: Prep your natural nails
Proper preparation is key to long-lasting results. Start by washing your hands, gently pushing back your cuticles, and lightly buffing the surface of your nails. This removes natural oils and helps the adhesive bond more effectively.
Step 2: Choose the right sizes
Each Nali Nails set includes multiple sizes for a perfect fit. Choose a nail that covers your natural nail from side to side without pressing into the skin. If a nail feels slightly too wide, you can gently file the sides to adjust the fit.
Step 3: Apply with glue tabs
Glue tabs are easy to use and ideal for short-term wear. Apply the adhesive tab to your natural nail, then align the press-on nail on top.
Step 4: Press and hold
Place the nail just above your cuticle and press down firmly. Hold for around 20 seconds to ensure a secure bond, then repeat for each nail.
Step 5: Shape and finish
Once all nails are applied, you can lightly file them to your preferred shape and apply cuticle oil for a clean, polished look.
Your manicure is now ready. Clean, effortless, and made to last.
