💅 Application Guide

Pressed to Perfection — Every Time

Each Pressed by Kio set includes everything you need for a flawless, salon-quality finish at home:

  • 15 nail sizes per hand (for the perfect fit)

  • Adhesive tabs (for short wear — up to a few days)

  • Nail glue (for long wear — up to 2+ weeks)

  • Cuticle stick

  • Alcohol wipes

  • Nail file

🖤 Step 1: Prep Your Natural Nails

Proper prep = perfect hold.

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly.

  2. Use the alcohol wipe to remove any oils or lotion from your nails.

  3. Gently push back your cuticles with the cuticle stick.

  4. Shape or lightly buff your natural nails using the included nail file.

  5. Select your press-on sizes and lay them out in order for easy application.

💋 Step 2: Choose Your Wear Time

For Short-Term Wear (1–3 Days)

Use the adhesive tabs:

  1. Match the tab size to each nail.

  2. Apply the tab to your natural nail and press firmly.

  3. Peel off the protective layer.

  4. Align and press the press-on nail firmly starting from the cuticle, holding for 10–15 seconds.

💡 Perfect for events, weekends, or photo shoots!

For Long-Term Wear (1–2+ Weeks)

Use the nail glue:

  1. Apply a thin, even layer of glue to your natural nail.

  2. Add a small drop to the back of the press-on nail (optional for extra hold).

  3. Align carefully with your cuticle and press down firmly for 20–30 seconds.

  4. Avoid contact with water for the first hour.

💡 Pro Tip: Press one nail at a time and hold steady — this helps prevent air bubbles and ensures a seamless seal.

🌸 Removal Tips

When you’re ready for a new vibe:

  • If applied with tabs: Soak hands in warm, soapy water for a few minutes, then gently lift using the cuticle stick.

  • If applied with glue: Soak nails in warm, soapy water with a bit of oil for 10–15 minutes. Use gentle pressure to loosen — never force removal.

Clean your press-ons and store them back in their box for future reuse.
