In this video, I’ll take you through the steps of applying these fabulous press-ons, showcasing both glue and nail tab methods for your convenience. Ready to dive into the world of press-on nails by Young Nails? Let's get into the nitty-gritty details of what makes this kit a staple in your beauty arsenal.

The YN Press-On Kit comes packed with essentials to ensure a long-lasting, professional-looking manicure right at home. Each kit includes 32 press-on nails, a file, a cuticle pusher, an alcohol pad, nail tabs, and glue, providing you with two application options to suit your needs and lifestyle.

First off, preparation is key to a flawless press-on application. Here’s a step-by-step guide to prepping your natural nails:

  • Start by using the orangewood stick from the kit to gently push back your cuticles. 
  • Next, use the included file to lightly buff your natural nails, aiming to remove the shine. This process should be gentle to avoid damaging your nails.
  • Finally, cleanse the nails with the provided alcohol pad to eliminate any dust and oil.

This ensures a clean surface for the press-ons to adhere to, crucial for longevity and a smooth finish. Now, let’s discuss the two application methods: using glue or nail tabs. 

Here are the differences and instructions for each:

Glue Method: Choose the right size press-on for each finger. Apply a small amount of glue either on the press-on or directly on your natural nail. Carefully place the press-on, pressing firmly to secure it. This method generally promises a hold of seven days or more.

Nail Tab Method: After sizing the press-ons, select the appropriate tab size. Stick the tab to your natural nail, then peel off the protective film. Attach the press-on to the adhesive tab, applying pressure to ensure full contact. Ideal for short-term wear, nail tabs can last a couple of days and are perfect for weekend events.

A tip to remember: ensure your natural nails are short for the best fit and to prevent any separation of the press-on from the natural nail, which can occur with longer natural nails underneath.

Now, I’ll share some tricks to guarantee a no-lift application: Ensure the press-on nail fits your natural nail perfectly from sidewall to sidewall to avoid any gaps that could lead to lifting. If using tabs and there’s excess, trim it down with cuticle nippers for a precise fit. Press firmly around all edges of the press-on to create a secure bond, regardless of the application method chosen.

To maximize the longevity of your press-on nails, consider these additional tips: Avoid prolonged exposure to water or harsh chemicals, which can weaken the adhesive bond. After applying all the nails and ensuring they are securely adhered, you’ll marvel at the professional and stylish finish. Press-on nails from Young Nails are not just a quick fix but a fashionable statement, whether for a boardroom meeting, a special night out, or even lounging in style at home.

Conclusion

Embracing the Young Nails Press-On Nails transforms your manicure game, marrying convenience with style. The main difference between using glue versus tabs lies in the duration of wear and the level of commitment; choose glue for longer wear and tabs for shorter events.
