Press-On Nails Application Guide

Get salon-quality nails at home in just a few easy steps.

Each ANGELIQ set comes with an application kit that includes everything you need: nail glue, sticky tabs, buffer, nail file, cuticle pusher, and alcohol wipes.

Step 1: Prep Your Natural Nails

  • Start with clean, dry hands.
  • Gently push back your cuticles using the cuticle pusher.
  • Trim or clip your nails to your desired length.
  • Lightly buff the surface of your nails until the shine is gone — this helps the press-ons adhere better.
  • Wipe each nail with an alcohol pad to remove oils or dust.

Step 2: Choose Your Fit

  • Select the correct size for each finger.
  • If needed, file the sides of the press-on nail for a more custom fit.

Step 3: Apply Your Press-On

You can use either nail glue or sticky tabs, depending on your preferred hold time.

    Option A: Using Nail Glue (longer wear – 1–2 weeks)

    1. Apply a thin layer of glue to your natural nail.
    2. Add a small drop to the back of the press-on.
    3. Press the nail down firmly for 10–15 seconds. Make sure there are no air bubbles.

    Option B: Using Sticky Tabs (shorter wear – 1–3 days)

    1. Choose the right size tab and apply it to your natural nail.
    2. Peel off the top film, then align and press the nail down firmly for 10–15 seconds.


    Then you are done! Now flaunt your new nails! 

    Tips: Avoid water or heavy hand use for the first 1–2 hours for best results.
