Step-by-Step: Safe Removal for Reuse
1. Soak in Warm Soapy Water
• Fill a bowl with warm water and add a few drops of gentle soap or cuticle oil.
• Soak your nails for 10–15 minutes to loosen the adhesive.
2. Gently Wiggle Them Off
• Use a wooden cuticle stick to gently lift around the edges.
• Wiggle slowly—never force or rip them off.
• If they resist, soak a bit longer.
3. Use Oil or Adhesive Remover (Optional)
• Apply cuticle oil or a non-acetone adhesive remover around the nail base.
• This helps dissolve any remaining glue without damaging the press-on.
4. Clean the Back of the Press-On
• Once removed, use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol or non-acetone remover to clean off leftover adhesive.
• Avoid soaking the press-ons directly in remover—it can warp or dull the finish.
5. Store Properly
• Place cleaned nails back in their original tray or a labeled container.
• Keep them away from heat and sunlight to preserve shape and shine.
💡 Pro Tip
If you plan to reuse often, opt for nail tabs or glue specifically labeled as reusable—they’re easier to remove cleanly than strong nail glue.
