Welcome to Press-On 101. We’re here to teach you everything you need to know about getting a perfect INSTANT MANI at home.


For best results, we always recommend THE INSTANT MANI SYSTEM. The system is the secret to the best, longest-lasting mani that you can create again and again.

HOW TO: THE INSTANT MANI
A perfect press-on manicure

MATCH
Find your best fit by holding up the press-on nail to your natural nail. It should cover the width of your nail without touching the skin on either side.
Each nail has a size at the tip - write down your size on the included insert so you can remember for next time!
TIP: If between sizes, choose the smaller size!

SHAPE
If necessary, shape your natural nail using your clipper + nail file.

PREP
Gently buff the surface of your natural nail. Wipe with the prep pad, then follow with Nail Strengthener. Then use the Cuticle Pusher to push back cuticles and create a nice even line at the base of your cuticles.

APPLY YOUR PRESS-ONS
Apply glue to your natural nail.
