How To Apply Your Sugar Tips Press Ons

TIP: Apply before bed. This gives the glue longer to cure fully without being exposed to water.

How To Apply

How to get the full two weeks out of your set

  1. Push back all cuticles with the cuticle stick. This is where most pop-offs start — any cuticle left behind creates a lifted edge for your press-on to catch and peel from.
  2. Buff your natural nails. Pop-offs also happen at the edges of the nail bed, so buff from both sides in toward the centre, not just the middle, to make sure the whole nail is ready to bond.
  3. Wipe nails with the prep pad to remove all dust, oil, and moisture from the skin. Glue can't adhere properly to a nail that isn't completely clean and dry, so don't skip this step.
  4. Scuff the back of the press-on with the pointed end of the cuticle stick, to help the glue grip.
  5. Apply a small amount of glue to both the natural nail and the press-on.
  6. Apply at a 45-degree angle, then press down and hold firmly for a minimum of 90 seconds.

Pro-tip: Apply before bed. This gives the glue longer to cure fully without being exposed to water.
