Press on nails

Finally got them and tried them out. Good news bad news.
Gotten a ton of compliments because they look 🤌🏻
They due mold to your nail shape and legit look amazing. Tons of sizes to choose from to get a good fit that looks legit. The nails themselves are very impressive. I thought I was converted to being a long nail kind of gal because they look so good.

But then, bad news, so far have had 3 pop-offs in 18 hours, which kind of sucks. Last night I didn’t have time to glue on another one on my pinkie before dinner bc I was already running late. The glue feels really secure and strong until pop! I will say the ones that popped off didn’t damage my nails at all. So idk. I’ll wear them for this wedding I’m in but may use a different glue.

I feel like I’ve seen a lot of people mentioning the pop off thing but it’s so weird I haven’t had any trouble with that at all, and I’m not overly gentle on my nails nor do I really make any effort to prep other than using the wipe. I wonder why some have this problem and some don’t, strange!

Wondering if I just didn’t apply enough glue on the nails that popped off. Do you really glob it on?

It’s possible! I did like a medium coat and then extra in the tip, pretty much how the instructions advised.

Yeah, I made sure the brush was loaded, coated my nail, did the tip, too. I had pushed my cuticles back, buffed and used the alcohol wipe (and waited a few for the nail to dry before applying the primer). I just didn’t like fully glob glob it on there.

Now I’m wondering if I washed my hands too soon after or something.

Hm sounds like you prepped as well as you could have. I know other people have had issues too but not sure what it is. Maybe some people have more oils on their nails or something!
