Included in Your Kit:
Cuticle pusher

The Ritual:
Gently push back your cuticles to create a clean foundation.
Lightly buff and shape your natural nails to ensure proper adhesion.
Cleanse each nail with the alcohol pad, removing all oils and residue. Nails must be completely dry.
Apply a small drop of glue to both your natural nail and the press-on or apply the appropriate sized adhesive tab to each natural nail.
Align at the cuticle and press down firmly, holding for at least 30 seconds.
Avoid water for several hours to allow the bond to fully set.

Removal
✦ Removal for Reuse
Designed to be worn again and again, your set can be safely removed without compromising your natural nails—or the integrity of the design.
The Removal Ritual:
Fill a bowl with warm, soapy water. You can also add a bit of cuticle or olive oil to make removal easier.
Soak nails for 10–20 minutes to gently loosen the adhesive.
Using a cuticle pusher, carefully lift from the sides. Apply cuticle oil underneath if needed.
Gently peel away the nails as they begin to release—never force removal.
Remove any remaining glue from your natural nails and the inside of the press-ons using a nail file.
Acetone may be used on your natural nails only. This will damage the press-on nails.
Pro Tip: Patience during removal preserves both your natural nails and your set—so you can wear them again without compromise.
✦ Removal (Soak-Off Method — Non Reusable)
When you’re ready to fully release your set, this method ensures a clean removal while protecting the health of your natural nails. This process is intended for non-reuse removal.
You’ll Need:
100% acetone
Cotton pads or balls
Aluminum foil or nail clips
Cuticle pusher
Nail file
Cuticle oil
The Removal Ritual:
Reduce the Top Layer
Remove any charms with cuticle nippers and file the surface of each nail to break the seal. This allows the acetone to penetrate more effectively.
Saturate & Wrap
Soak cotton in acetone and place it directly onto each nail. Wrap securely with foil or use nail clips to hold in place.
Let It Dissolve
Allow nails to soak for 15–25 minutes. The press-ons will begin to soften and lift as the adhesive breaks down.
Gently Release
Remove the wraps and use a cuticle pusher to gently slide off the softened nails.
Do not force removal. If nails are not removing easily, saturate & wrap again and allow them to soak in 10 minute increments.
Refine & Restore
Buff away any remaining residue, then finish with cuticle oil to restore hydration and shine.
✦ Aftercare
Acetone can be drying, so replenishing moisture is essential.
Apply cuticle oil and hand cream to nourish your nails and skin post-removal.
Note: This method dissolves the adhesive completely and may compromise the integrity of the press-ons, making them unsuitable for reuse.
