Airbender Press-On Nails | Avatar The Last Airbender (ATLA) | retailer Handpainted w/ Japanese Gel

♡Edgy ATLA Fire Nation Inspired Press-On Nails♡

★ Hand-painted with Japanese gels on Kokoist Gelip tips
★ At the moment, I am only offering the shape "medium almond". Sorry for any inconvenience!
Hack: if you would rather have coffin, you can trim off/file the tip of the medium almond yourself :)
★ Please note that pictures are taken under a different lighting so the colors may slighty differ. I put my heart and soul into hand making these press-ons, and each item is made to order <3

LISTING INCLUDES:
10 custom nails
1 nail buffer
1 nail glue

HOW TO APPLY:

** Prior to application, check if the size of the press-on fits your natural nail. If it is too large, file down the edges with the included file.

1. Wash your hands and ensure your nails are clean and free of retailer oils such as hand creams and lotions.
2. Gently push back the cuticles or trim them if desired.
3. Use the included nail file to gently buff the surface of your natural nails. This will create a slightly textured surface for the press-on to better adhere to.
4. Wipe down the surface of your nail bed with rubbing alcohol to remove any traces of oils. Removing these oils is important as they'll ensure the nails adhere to your nail as long as possible. If you don't have rubbing alcohol, nail polish remover will do the trick as well.
5. After the alcohol (or nail polish remover) has dried, apply a dot of nail glue (included) to the base of the custom nail and apply from the cuticle to the tip of the nail at a 45 degree angle to avoid air bubbles as much as possible. Press down firmly and wait for the glue to dry.
6. After the glue dries, enjoy your new lovely set! <3

HOW TO REMOVE (with acetone):

1. Soak the press-ons in a small ceramic or glass bowl filled with acetone-based nail polish remover. Soak until the glue breaks down and you are able to gently remove the nail tips.
2. If you are having trouble, you can use some cuticle oil under the press-on.

DO NOT FORCE PRY THE NAILS OFF, as this could damage your natural nail!

** These nails can be re-used if you take care of them properly! Please note that the nail tips are made of gel as well, so using acetone-based nail polish removers will ruin the nail. If you want to re-use the nails, DO NOT soak them off with acetone.
