KISS Salon Acrylic Press On Nails, Nail

I am currently on day 5 of these nails and they have all stayed intact despite working with my hands, doing yard work, and hitting/yanking my nails on surfaces accidently. these are not too short/long and are a perfect length for me as they do not get in the way of work and my daily activities. if you're looking for a nail set that is inexpensive, looks luxurious and professionally done, these are for you!!!! these are absolutely a fantastic cheaper alternative to expensive salon nails. I was spending $50-$60 for gel/acrylic nails that would last a month. these nails, on the other hand, are much cheaper and have already lasted me longer than expected. i dont expect this set to last a month, but i dont mind because i am getting what i paid for. i was looking for a thicker french tip design that would give off a 2000's look, and these were perfect. i had just soaked and taken off my gel acrylics at home (they were done at the salon.) to prepare for these nails, i cleaned under my natural nails and applied cuticle remover liquid to my nails. i pushed my cuticles back with a tool from a manicure tool set, then went on to buff out my nails well with a basic nail file. after that, i added a cuticle oil to my nails to moisturize. finally, I used a cotton pad that I soaked in rubbing alcohol to remove all remaining product from my nails so the glue would stick well. I also buffed the underside of the fake nails so they would stick more securely to the natural nail. to apply the nails, i added a small dot of glue to the underside of the fake nail and onto the center of my natural nail. I quickly applied and straightened the fake nail on my natural nail just above my cuticle and pressed down hard for 10 seconds once it was in the right spot. excess glue came out around the sides, but I used an old t-shirt to quickly wipe it off. I did this with all of my nails and I am veryyyyyyyyyy pleased with the results. these are wonderful, i recommend you give them a try! UPDATE: it is day 8 and theyre all intact lol!! my thumb nail did end up cracking in half though. just keep in mind these nails aren't as durable as gel acrylics. but they are strong enough as long as you take care of them!
