- Alcohol wipe
- Nail file
- Cuticle Oil
Step-by-Step: How to Reuse Your Press-On Nails
Step 1: Remove nails gently (see our full removal guide here)
Always remove with warm water and a cuticle stick, never force or rip off.
Step 2: Clean the nails
Use an alcohol wipe or cotton pad to remove any glue or sticky tab residue from the back of each nail.
Pro Tip: A nail buffer or file can help gently smooth away leftover glue if needed.
Step 3: Clean your natural nails
Before reapplying, make sure your natural nails are clean, dry, and free of oils for a longer-lasting bond.
Step 4: Reapply using glue or sticky tabs (see our full application guide here)
Choose your method:
-
Glue: Longest wear (up to 14 days)
-
Sticky tabs: Temporary wear (a few hours to a few days)
Apply as you would with a fresh set, press down firmly for 15 seconds per nail.
Step 5: Shape and go
File any edges as needed, and you're ready to go with nails that look like a fresh salon set again!
