All About Adhesives

Looking to buy some adhesives for your nails?  We have them in stock here

We currently offer two types of nail adhesives, nail glue and sticky tabs. Repeating Glue is currently sold out, sorry!

Feel free to add glue or sticky tabs to your order as individual items, or choose the All-in-One Kit for everything all in one convenient pouch. Fix your nails at home or on the go. 

 

Nail Glue- Has a very strong hold, best for long term wear (5-7 days). In order to avoid damaging your natural nails, the press-ons should be soaked off with acetone or nail polilsh remover when you're ready to take off the nails. Unfortunately, this soak off process will ruin your press-on nails.

*Never pick or force off artificial nails, as it can damage the nail bed.

➤ Instructions for Glue:

Ensure natural nails are clean and dry. Make sure there is no hand cream, oils, etc. near the nails or cuticles. Use the prep pad to thoroughly clean your nail beds.

Buff natural nails *lightly* if necessary, 2-3 strokes not more than once a week.

Add a thin layer of glue to your natural nail drop by drop, spreading it out if necessary. Less is more- too much glue will overflow under the nail and cause lifting. After glue is applied, quickly press on artificial nail for 3-5 seconds.

To remove, soak nails in acetone nail polish remover until artificial nails loosen and dissolve. Never pick or force off the press on nails as it will damage your natural nails. Be careful when opening and applying glue. Keep glue away from eyes. Never use on irritated skin or nails. If reaction occurs, discontinue use immediately. 

Adhesive Tabs

➤ Instructions for Adhesive Tabs- Great for short-term wear (from a few hours to a day or so), these allow your press-on nails to be easily applied and reused. Perfect for performances, date nights and drag when you need to take nails on and off easily with no damage- either to your natural nails or the press-ons!

Ensure natural nails are clean and dry. Make sure there is no hand cream, oils, etc. near the nails or cuticles. Use the Alcohol prep pad (available in All-in-One kit) to thoroughly clean your nail beds.

Buff natural nails *lightly* if necessary, 2-3 strokes not more than once a week.

Choose the largest tab that will fully cover the nail without extending beyond the edges of the nail. Tabs may be cut to size if needed. Apply the tab to the natural nail sticky side down, leaving the protective paper on the top side. Press firmly. Peel the protective paper off the top and press on the artificial nail. Press firmly and roll the nail from side to side, and you're ready to go!

To remove, soak hands in warm water with some added oil for several minutes. The adhesives will loosen and the press on nails can be slowly removed.
