Why Press-On Toenails?


Before we jump into the hacks, let's talk about why press-on toenails are such a game-changer. They're quick, easy, and give you salon-worthy results without the hefty price tag. Plus, with Glamnetic's amazing selection, you can switch up your style whenever the mood strikes.

Prep Like a Pro


First things first, prep is key! Here's how to get your toes ready for their glamorous makeover:


  1. Soak your feet in warm water for a few minutes.

  2. Gently push back your cuticles.

  3. Trim and file your natural nails.

  4. Buff the surface of your nails lightly.

  5. Clean your nails with rubbing alcohol.


Now that your toes are prepped, let's dive into those household hacks!


Hack #1: The Tea Bag Trick


Got a tea bag lying around? Here's how to use it:

  1. Cut a small piece of the tea bag paper.

  2. Apply nail glue to your natural nail.

  3. Place the tea bag paper on top.

  4. Add another layer of glue.

  5. Apply your press-on toenail as usual.


The tea bag fibers create a stronger bond between your natural nail and the press-on, helping it stay put for longer.


Hack #2: Hairspray Helper


Believe it or not, hairspray can be your secret weapon for lasting press-ons:


  1. Apply your press-on toenail with glue as normal.

  2. Once dry, lightly spritz the edges of the nail with hairspray.

  3. Let it dry completely.


The hairspray creates a protective seal, helping to keep moisture out and your press-ons in place.


Hack #3: Baking Soda Boost


Here's a trick using something from your kitchen:


  1. Mix a small amount of baking soda with your nail glue.

  2. Apply this mixture to your natural nail.

  3. Press on your toenail as usual.


The baking soda acts as a bonding agent, creating a stronger hold.


Hack #4: Clear Nail Polish Primer


Got some clear nail polish? Use it as a primer:

  1. Apply a thin layer of clear polish to your natural nail.

  2. Let it dry completely.

  3. Apply your press-on toenail with glue.

The clear polish creates a smooth surface for better adhesion.


Hack #5: Rubbing Alcohol Refresh


If your press-ons are starting to lift, try this:


  1. Dip a cotton swab in rubbing alcohol.

  2. Gently clean under the lifted edge.

  3. Once dry, apply a small amount of glue.

  4. Press the nail back down.


This removes any oils or debris that might be causing the lift.
