For shorter wear (as in a day/night out we advise our gel tabs as they are easier to soak off after 24 hours) Glue can be worn for shorter wear nails may just need soaking longer to remove.

To apply press-on nails, you’ll need to prep your nails and hands, shape the nail, then stick it on with glue or adhesive tabs. Here’s a full breakdown, courtesy of nail artist Julie Kandalec:
- Trim or file your natural nails shorter so the tips adhere better and don’t show before you apply your press-ons.
- Wash your hands with soap and water, remove all nail polish, lightly buff your nails with a buffer, then prep your nails with 91 percent isopropyl alcohol.
- Match the press-on nail to your nail bed size and curvature. Be sure the nail doesn’t have to be pressed down to fit, or it can pop off prematurely.
- Shape each nail to fit on all sides of your nail bed with a nail file (this is very important if you want a long-lasting set).
- Cover your entire nail with glue or an adhesive tab, working with one nail at a time.
- Align the press-on nail along the cuticle line, apply at a downward angle from the cuticle, and press down firmly for 20 to 30 seconds. If any glue seeps from the sides, remove it right away with a cuticle stick.
But if you wanna make them last even longer, follow this tip: “Clean your nails with 91 percent alcohol before applying your press-ons to dehydrate your nail beds, which will help the glue adhere better.” Then, drip on a generous amount of nail glue so that the glue is evenly distributed across your whole nail when you press it on. Trust me/us—it really works
Soak your nails in warm
soapy water for around 5-10 minutes. We advise to not soak your nails in
acetone if you wish to wear them again as this will damage the gel on the
nails.
If the nails will not budge
you can use another nail to gently prize the nail round the edges.
If you have applied gel tabs
these can be peeled from the back of the nail. If you have used glue this
can be gently removed once the nails are soaked as the glue will be soft.
Store your nails back in the
DOOBYS NAILS box ready to apply next time
Of course! Once you remove the nails either peel of the tabs from the back or scrape of the glue applied ready to wear again and again!
You will need an adhesive to apply the nails.
We have a couple of options to choose from:-
Glue - A 10g bottle of nail glue, enough glue for 25 applications. Our Nail glue is a strong adhesive method and is best for longer day to wear or if you want a strong hold. With good nail prep you can expect glue to hold for 1-2 weeks, this varies from person to person-
Adhesive Nail Tabs - One sheet of 24 sticky tabs, suitable for one use only.Adhesive tabs are great for 1-2 day wear if you want to be able to easily remove the nails and reuse them.
