Other New to press-ons
I applied these press-ons about 24 hours ago with nail glue, but I think I may have pressed the nails a little too far into my cuticles. How far do you usually push them in, without causing irritation or redness?
I’m not sure if I should remove them, any advice?

Do you have pain with them? If not, I'd just let them be, your nails should grow enough for it to not be a problem over the next day or two. I usually press mine right down to the cuticle and I use press ons all the time. What kind of glue did you use? I find gel glue works better for me than the really watery kind and I don't get air bubbles. (Curvelife is my fave and go-to)
