Apply Press-On Nails Like a Pro: Nail Glue
Share
If you’re looking for staying power, nail glue is the way to go. PALLASKA’s high-quality press-ons paired with glue can give you up to two weeks of chip-free, gorgeous nails. Here's how to do it right — no salon appointment needed.
🔹 Step 1: Prep Your Natural Nails
Proper prep is the key to long-lasting results:
Soak your hands in warm water to soften the cuticles.
Gently push back your cuticles with the wooden stick.
Trim and shape your natural nails.
Lightly buff the surface of each nail, especially around the edges.
Clean thoroughly with an alcohol pad to remove any oils or dust.
💡 Pro Tip: Clean, dry nails help the glue adhere better and last longer.
🔹 Step 2: Apply the Nail Glue
Apply a thin layer of glue to the back of the press-on nail (about 1/3 of the surface).
Optional: Add a small drop to your natural nail for extra strength.
Align the press-on at the cuticle and press it down at a slight angle.
❗ Don’t overload with glue — too much can cause lifting or overflow.
🔹 Step 3: Press and Hold
Hold the nail firmly in place for at least 5–10 seconds.
Apply even pressure to avoid bubbles and ensure a secure bond.
Repeat for all fingers.
🔹 Step 4: Let It Set
After applying all nails:
Avoid water, lotion, or oil-based products for at least 3 hours.
Give the glue time to fully cure before any handwashing or activities.
⏳ This waiting time helps your nails stay strong and flawless for 7–14 days.
Strong Hold, Effortless Style 💅
You’re now ready for long-lasting, beautiful nails that keep up with you — from busy days to nights out.
