No need to find time for a booking at your nail salon and wait 2 hours for your arcylics, apply them at home in only 10 minutes!
Step #1 Choose your adhesive
There are two types of adhesives that come in the kit that you can choose from.
A) Gel Glue: Short‑Term Wear (2‑4 Days)
For each of your nail beds, choose the gel glue that is the right size, then peel it from the plastic sheet and place it onto your natural nail. Press down on the glue for 10 seconds and then repeat this process for all of your nails.
Tip: It doesn’t matter if the glue is to big or small for your nail. Once the glue is completely dry you can just peel of the extra plastic and it will look gorgeous!
B) Liquid Glue: Long Term Wear (2 ‑ 3 weeks).
Apply a generous amount of liquid glue to your natural nails and a small amount onto the nail, make sure not to flood your nails with glue because it might not stick properly. Be careful not to apply the glue to your fingertips as it does bond quickly.
