Your Flawless Manicure, Step-by-Step

Achieving a salon-quality finish at home is effortless. Follow this universal guide to ensure a seamless fit, long-lasting wear, and damage-free removal for all Aunest press-on collections.

Step 1: The Perfect Prep (Crucial for longevity)

  • Cleanse: Wash your hands thoroughly and gently push back your cuticles using the provided wooden stick.

  • Buff: Lightly buff the surface of your natural nails. This removes the natural shine and creates a grip for the adhesive.

  • Wipe: Cleanse each nail with an alcohol prep pad to remove any natural oils or dust. Let them dry completely.

Step 2: Find Your Custom Fit

  • Test the press-on nails against your natural nail beds. Select the sizes that fit seamlessly from sidewall to sidewall.

  • Pro Tip: If you are between two sizes, always choose the slightly smaller one for the most natural look. Lay out all 10 selected nails in order before applying.

Step 3: Flawless Application

  • Apply your preferred adhesive (jelly tabs for short-term wear, or nail glue for extended wear) to your natural nail.

  • Align the bottom of the press-on nail just under your cuticle at a 45-degree angle.

  • Press down firmly and hold for 15-20 seconds. Ensure consistent pressure across the entire nail to prevent any air bubbles.

Step 4: Gentle Removal (To preserve your reusable set)

  • Never pull or force the nails off.

  • Soak your fingertips in warm, soapy water mixed with a few drops of cuticle oil (or olive oil) for 10-15 minutes.

  • Once the adhesive softens, gently lift the edges of the press-on nails using the wooden stick. Store them safely in your master box for your next use.
