How to Remove

Proper removal protects both your natural nails and the press-ons, so you can reuse them again and again.

01

Soak

Fill a small bowl with warm soapy water. Soak your fingertips for 10–15 minutes. This gently loosens the adhesive tab without force.

Alternatively, you can soak a cotton ball with nail polish remover (acetone-free is gentler) and press it against the cuticle edge for 30–60 seconds.

02

Loosen

Using the cuticle stick or an orange stick, gently insert the tip under the cuticle edge of the press-on. Work slowly in a side-to-side motion, not a prying motion.

You should feel the press-on lift gradually. If you feel resistance, soak longer — never force it.

03

Remove & Clean

Once loose, slide the nail off gently from the cuticle toward the tip.

Peel any remaining adhesive residue from your natural nail using the buffer — never scrape. Apply a nourishing cuticle oil afterward to restore moisture.

04

Store for Reuse

Clean the inside of each press-on with a dry cotton ball to remove adhesive residue. Store them in their original box in a cool, dry place. They are ready to wear again.

Important

Never peel, yank, or force a press-on off. This is the leading cause of thin, weakened natural nails. Patience during removal preserves the health of your nail beds and the longevity of the press-ons.
