Press-on nails have been stealing the spotlight in the nail scene lately, and honestly, it’s easy to see why! Whether you need a flawless mani for a special event or just want to switch up your look at home without fuss, these tiny artpieces are a total game-changer.

So... What are Press-On Nails, Anyway?

In the simplest terms: they’re pre-made nails you pop on with glue or adhesive tabs. But here at Cute Clawz, they’re so much more than that.  
Think tiny canvases, painted by hand with care, detail, and a whole lot of love. Every single set is a one-of-a-kind piece of wearable art, made just for _you_.

Why Press-Ons? Here’s the magic:
The buzz around press-ons is well deserved. Here’s why they’re quickly becoming everyone’s fave:

✦ Reusable: With a bit of care, you can wear your set again and again. Yes, really.
✦ Kind to Your Nails: No harsh drilling or acrylic damage. Just your natural claws living their best life.
✦ Customisable: Fancy a design based on your fave anime character? A cottagecore dream set? Some sparkly chaos? Say less.
✦ Time-Saving: Salon-level looks, minus the hours in a chair.
✦ Commitment-Free: Want claws today and bare nails tomorrow? You’re in control.
✦ Cost Effective: They pay for themselves with every re-wear. Treat yourself and your wallet.

How to Apply Like a Pro

1. Prep those claws
    Clean, buff, and push back cuticles. The better your prep, the longer they’ll stay.
2. Perfect your fit
    Gently file the sides if they need a little tweak.
3. Stick or glue?
    Adhesive tabs = short-term slay (great for events/photos).  
    Nail glue = long-term wear (up to 2+ weeks!).  
4. Press and hold
    Hold each nail down for about 30–60 seconds. Give it a little pressure so it bonds well.
5. Avoid water for the first hour
    And remember: nails are jewels not tools!

How Long Will They Last?

It depends on the method:

✦Glue: 1–2 weeks or longer with proper care.
✦Tabs: 1–3 days, perfect for one-night glam.

With some care and the right prep, your set will stay flawless. Yes, even while you're typing, texting, or full-on living your best life.

Can I Reuse My Cute Clawz?

1000% yes! After removal, gently clean off any old glue or tabs, store them safely, and they’re ready for round two (or three!). Store them in the original packaging to keep your tiny masterpieces safe.

How Do I Remove Them?

Don’t rip them off—please. 😭

Instead:
✦ Soak in hot, soapy water with oil for 10–15 mins.
✦ Glue tabs should come off very easily.
✦ For glued sets, try a gentle lift with a cuticle stick after soaking. Won't pop off? Soak a bit longer. 

Slow and gentle wins the race. Your natural nails will thank you.
