Apply Leopard Lily Press-On Nails for a Wild Look

Quick Answer

To achieve a wild, animal-print look with Leopard Lily press-on nails, prep your natural nails, apply the adhesive, and press each nail firmly for up to 3 weeks of wear.

Step-by-Step Application Guide

1. 1. Prep Your Natural Nails: Remove any old polish, push back cuticles, and gently buff the nail surface. Clean with alcohol to remove oils and dust. Skipping the buffing step can cause nails to lift early.
2. 2. Select the Right Size: Match each Leopard Lily nail to your natural nail bed. The set includes sizes S, M, and L. Test-fit without adhesive first. A size that is too small or too large will not stick securely.
3. 3. Apply the Adhesive: Place a thin layer of glue onto your natural nail or use the included adhesive tabs. Spread it evenly, avoiding the cuticle area. Too much glue creates a mess and may cause the nail to pop off.
4. 4. Press and Hold: Align the press-on nail at a 45-degree angle near the cuticle, then press down firmly. Hold for 10–15 seconds without moving. Moving your finger while pressing can create air bubbles and weaken the bond.
5. 5. Seal the Edges: Apply a thin layer of clear top coat along the cuticle line and sides of each nail. This locks in the design and prevents lifting. A top coat also adds shine and makes the animal print pop.
6. 6. Avoid Water for an Hour: Do not wash dishes, shower, or swim for at least 60 minutes after application. The adhesive needs time to cure fully. Water exposure too soon is the most common reason for early failure.
