Glue tabs can be used in conjunction with  BadAss Creative: The Ultimate Press On Nail Art Glue to fill the high apex of sculptured nails.  To ensure a 2- 3 weeks adhesion we recommend ensuring there is no air/ gaps between the natural nail and press on.  For this reason we advise you purchase the Natural Shape if your nails are flat without a high apex.  

 

Using natural shaped nails will significantly reduce the amount of glue needed to securely attach by your press on's with no air bubbles.  We standardly use natural shaped nails however sculpted are available on request.

Using our press on nails will significantly reduce the time you spend on getting perfectly manicured nails.  A manicure in a box, which takes minutes to apply.

3- 7 days:  1 thin layer of glue on to the nail bed, your press on nail of choice applied directly to the glued nail. repeat until completed.  

14 days 1 thick layer of glue applied to the nail plate and 1 applied to the inside of the press on nail.  Ensuring no air bubbles are trapped beneath the press on nail.

21 days  For a 2 to 3 week bond it is essential that there is absolutely no air pockets between the natural nail and press on creating the prefect seal.  This does take practice but is well worth it as to get up to 3 weeks of continuous wear.   Due to our self dissolving formula hand washing and hand sanitisers can affect the longevity of the bond, so make sure you wear gloves when washing up or using chemical based cleaners. 

We always recommend starting with the pinkie fingers on your lease dominate hand, moving along the hand gluing your thumb last.
