How to Remove/Reuse
Remember: Gentle removal keeps both your natural nails and your press-ons in great condition for future wear. Each set can be worn up to 3x!
Be careful not to scrape harshly, because it damages the surface of the natural nail, making it harder for new sets to adhere properly.
Do not use Acetone excessively for removal, because it may dry out your natural nails and irritate the skin around them. It may also melt or dull the design on your press-ons, making them less suitable for reuse.
Removing Press-Ons
Here a few things you'll need:
A Bowl
Warm Water
Soap
Cuticle Oil (can use olive oil, jojoba oil, coconut oil, vitamin E oil or argan oil)
Cuticle Pusher or Wooden Manicure Stick
Small File
Buffer
Soft Wash Cloth or Cotton Pads
Step 1- Fill a bowl with warm water & soap, then mix using wooden stick or cuticle pusher until soapy.
Step 2- Rub cuticle oil around the edges of your nails. Now let it sit in the bowl of warm soapy water for 1-2 minutes.
Step 3- Use a cuticle pusher to gently ease the press-ons up from the sides. Remember to work slowly & never force the nail to come off. Go back to soaking the nail if it cannot be removed. Then repeat.
Step 4- Once removed, dry your nails using a soft cloth or cotton pad. Then gently buff the surface, trim the free edge (if preferred) & file.
Step 5- Finish by washing & drying your hands/nails, then massage with lotion & cuticle oil.
Reusing Press-Ons

Storage for Nails (Ziploc bag, container etc.)
Step 1- Fill a bowl with warm water, soap, & oil. Then mix using a wooden stick or cuticle pusher until soapy. Let the press-ons sit for about 5-10 mins.
Step 2- Using a toothbrush or edge brush, loosen the glue on the press-ons by brushing lightly with the water mixture.
Step 3- Carefully scrape any chunks using the cuticle pusher or wooden stick, then gently pat dry using a towel or cloth.
