What is the difference between press-on and acrylic nails?

Press-on nails are a temporary, DIY nail enhancement that adheres directly to your natural nails using a strong adhesive. They can be easily applied and removed at home, unlike acrylic nails which require salon visits and more permanent application. Press-on nails provide a quick, affordable way to achieve salon-quality nails without the hassle or damage of acrylics.

How long do Press On, Press Off nails last?

With proper care, our press-on nails can last 1-2 weeks (some girlies say they can make theirs last up to 4 weeks!). The key is to apply them correctly using the included adhesive, avoid excessive water exposure, and remove them gently when ready for a change. Many customers find they can reapply the same set multiple times. The nails are made to withstand daily activities!

What if the nails don't fit perfectly?

We provide a range of sizes in each set to ensure a customized fit for your nails. However, if a particular nail doesn't fit quite right, you can use nail files to gently trim or shape it to the perfect size. Our customer support team is also happy to provide tips on achieving the best fit.

Can I paint or decorate the nails after applying them?

Absolutely! Our press-on nails are a blank canvas for you to customize. Feel free to paint them with your favorite nail polish, apply stickers or rhinestones, or get creative with nail art. Just be gentle when applying any additional decorations.

How do I remove the press-on nails?

Soak your nails in warm, soapy water for a few minutes first to help loosen the adhesive. Then slowly pry up the edges using a removal tool of your choice. Be patient and avoid pulling too hard to prevent damage to your natural nails.

Will they damage my natural nails?

Press-on nails are a much gentler alternative to acrylic or gel manicures. As long as you apply and remove them carefully, they shouldn't cause any lasting damage to your natural nails. In fact, by protecting your nails, press-ons can actually help them grow stronger and healthier between uses.

Aren't press-ons just a cheap, temporary fix?

Our press-on nails are high-quality, durable products that deliver salon-worthy results. While they are more affordable and easier to apply than salon services, they aren't a cheap, throwaway option. With proper care, you can enjoy flawless nails for 1-2 weeks per set. Many customers find them to be a smart, convenient alternative to frequent salon visits.
