Removal Process
- Prepare a small bowl, acetone, baby oil, cuticle oil, nail clippers, nail file, nail file, paper towels, and an orange wood stick or cuticle pusher.
- If you are using nail glue, fill the bowl with acetone mixed with a little baby oil to prevent the skin from drying out and soak your nails for about 5 minutes.
- For nails with adhesive layer, soak them in warm, soapy water for about 10 minutes to loosen the adhesive.
- Apply a few drops of cuticle oil under the pressed nails and let them soak in for a few minutes to help loosen pressed nails and moisturize your natural nails.
- Gently use the orange wood stick around the edges of the screws being pressed to loosen them. Be patient and avoid trimming nails before they are ready.
- Once the nails are loose enough, peel them off carefully starting at the edges. If there is resistance, soak a little longer.
- After removal, use an orange wood stick to gently peel off any remaining adhesive. Then, clean off any sticky residue with nail polish remover on a cotton ball.
- Push back the cuticles and use a 240 grit buffer to smooth the nail surface slightly. A good hand mask or your favorite natural oil can help nourish your nails after the procedure.
Tips Nail Caring
- Avoid using your nails as tools to prevent lifting or breaking of the tips.
- Regularly apply cuticle oil to keep your nails and cuticles hydrated1.
- Limit the time your nails are submerged in water to prevent the Press-On Nails from loosening.
