How to use
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.
