How to Remove Press-On Nails

Removing press-on nails with adhesive tabs is a breeze, and the best part is they're reusable! Here's how:

1.Gently Lift the Edges
Use the pointed end of a cuticle stick to gently lift the edges of the press-on nails. Start at one corner and work your way around, being careful not to damage your natural nails.

2Apply Oil or Acetone
If the press-on nails are adhered firmly, apply a small amount of cuticle oil or acetone around the edges to help loosen the adhesive.

3.Wiggle and Lift
Once the edges are lifted, gently wiggle the press-on nail back and forth while lifting it upwards. Avoid pulling forcefully to prevent damaging your natural nails.

4.Cleanse Your Nails
After removing the press-on nails, wash your natural nails with soap and water to remove any remaining adhesive residue.

5.Moisturize
Apply a nourishing cuticle oil or hand cream to hydrate and nourish your nails and cuticles after removal.

Consider Using Nail Glue

If you find that adhesive tabs alone aren't providing enough durability, you may want to consider using nail glue for a stronger bond. Apply a small amount of glue to your natural nails before attaching the press-on nails for extra strength and longevity.

By following these steps, you'll be able to enjoy beautiful, salon-quality nails at home with Chic Nails, and safely remove them without damaging your natural nails!
