I. Prepare Your Tools
Before starting, ensure you have everything you need, including the Cutevia Press-On Nail Kit and the following tools:
- Cutevia Press-On Nails (nail pieces, adhesive tabs, or glue)
- Alcohol wipes (or Cutevia’s cleaning wipes)
- Nail file (included in the Cutevia kit)
- Cuticle stick (for prepping your nail beds)
Cutevia’s all-in-one kits provide everything you need for a seamless and professional application experience.
II. Select the Perfect Nail Size
-
Match Nail Sizes
Choose nail pieces from the Cutevia kit that best match the width of your natural nails. Cutevia nails are designed with multiple size options to ensure a snug and natural fit. -
Organize the Sequence
Arrange the selected nails in order for both hands to streamline the application process.
III. Clean Your Natural Nails
- Use alcohol wipes to clean the surface of your nails, removing any oils or debris. This is a crucial step for ensuring long-lasting adhesion.
- Lightly buff the surface of your nails with the nail file included in the Cutevia kit. This enhances the grip of the adhesive tabs or glue.
IV. Apply the Nails
Depending on your needs, follow one of these methods:
1. Using Adhesive Tabs (Best for Short-Term Wear)
- Apply the double-sided adhesive tabs to your clean nails and press firmly for 3–5 seconds to secure.
- Peel off the protective layer from the tabs, align the nail piece at the cuticle, and press firmly for 10 seconds to ensure a strong bond.
2. Using Glue (Best for Long-Term Wear)
- Apply a thin layer of Cutevia’s nail glue to both your natural nail and the back of the press-on nail.
- Starting at the cuticle, align the nail and press down firmly for 10–15 seconds to eliminate air bubbles and secure the fit.
V. Shape and Beautify
- Trim or shape the nails as desired using the nail file provided in the Cutevia kit.
- Wipe the surface with a soft cloth to remove any glue residue, leaving a flawless, polished finish.
VI. Daily Care and Maintenance
- Limit Water Exposure: Avoid soaking your nails in water for extended periods (e.g., during baths or dishwashing) to maintain adhesion.
- Avoid Excessive Force: Be gentle during daily activities to prevent the nails from lifting or loosening.
- Use Cuticle Oil: Apply cuticle oil regularly to nourish your cuticles and enhance overall nail health.
VII. How to Remove Cutevia Press-On Nails
- Adhesive Tabs: Use a cuticle stick to gently lift the edges of the press-on nail and remove it.
- Glue: Soak your nails in warm water and nail polish remover for 5–10 minutes to soften the glue. Gently lift the nail using a cuticle stick.
- Clean Residue: Use alcohol wipes or nail polish remover to clean any leftover adhesive from your natural nails.
VIII. Tips for Reusing Cutevia Nails
