Gently push back your cuticles with the cuticle pusher and trim any excess dead skin.

Clean your nails with an alcohol prep pad and gently buff your nail bed until there is no shine.

Apply a drop of nail glue to both your nail and press-ons. Apply downward at a 45 degree angle. Press down firmly for at least 10 seconds.

Use the nail file to sharpen corners and/or edges for a crispier look.

Soak your nails in a bowl of warm soapy water for about 25-30 minutes. Slide your cuticle pusher in-between the press-on nail and your nail bed. Gently lift your press-ons off.

After removing all press-ons, buff away any nail glue that's left on your nail bed with your buffer.

Remove excess nail glue on your press-on with a q-tip dipped in 100% acetone. Be careful, too much acetone can damage the press-on.

Reapply press-ons the same way you did the first time.
