Super Strong Nail Glue for Press On Nails, Nail Tips & Acrylic Nails (8ml) NYK1 NailBond Brush On Glue for Press Ons, Tips & Acrylics - Long Lasting, Maximum Strength, Mess-Free Application

I've tried 5+ of the top rated Amazon nail glues and this is the best one by far. It worked even better than using acrylic and monomer to adhere my press on.My nails generally last 2+ weeks with this glue.Here are my tips/tricks:-Plan ahead! Avoid water for as long as you can after you apply your nails. I like to do mine late afternoon or evening and I avoid water (showers, hand washing, dishes) until the next day. Exposure to water in general breaks down the glue, this is especially true in the 12 hours after they have been applied and are caring.- it is super important that you don't touch anything including your phone, Door knobs, remotes during the nail application process. I give myself 30 minute typically. I will turn something on the TV an let it auto play. All of these surfaces have oils and bacteria that will contaminate your nails and can weaken the glue.- always protect the nails!- don't use your nails to open soda cans. Use a butter knife or other utensil to lift the tab. (Or ask someone to open it for you).- avoid anything that puts direct pressure on your nails. Don't try to remove a sticker lable with them or o pry something with them.- when you grab things don't dig in your nails. Try to put the pressure on your palms or finger tips; not the nails.- no long exposure to water as this will weaken the glue.-Use hand sanitizer when you can.- If you have to do dishes, wash a dog, scrub a floor ect. use dish gloves.- wear gloves when gardening or messing with soil. Soil has bacteria that can get trapped under the press on nails and it can turn your natural nails green.-avoid getting greasy lotions on/around your nails. The mix of oil and moisture will break down the glue.-Vialsss on social media has great tutorials on how to do everyday tasks with long/fake nails. There are many great online tutorials on how to protect your nails.- If you lose a nail. Try to file away the excess glue on the nail before you reapply it. Wipe your natural nail and the press-on down with rubbing alcohol to kill off bacteria before you reapply it!To apply the nails you will need:Nails, this glue, cuticle pusher, nail file, nail clippers, cotton pads, acetone nail polish remover, 70% rubbing alcohol or alcohol wipes/pads, nail dehydrator.My steps for application are:-Wash your hands with dish soap before you start to remove all oils and contaminates.- trim your nails, push back the cuticles, lightly... Lightly! (just take away the shine) file your nails to give a rough surface the glue can stick to.- Wipe your nails down with "pure" acetone. Do not use the nail strengthening or the non-acetone removers as they often leave contaminates (thing that will make your nail glue not stick) behind on your nails. This step helps remove the natural oils and debris from pushing back the cuticles and filing.-I size my nails at this point (pop them out, try them on if need be and line them up in order of application).- I wipe down my nails and finger tips again with a cotton pad with 70% rubbing alcohol in case I came in contact with oils or other contaminates during the sizing process. This also kills bacteria.- I use a nail dehydration on my nails.- I apply one nail at a time. This glue dries super fast. I start with my pointer finger first as it get the most use and needs the strongest bond. I also do one hand at a time.- apply the glue to your nail. A thin coat on the whole nail. ​You don't need a thick coating. I find for me my nails last longer if I only apply it to my natural nails and don't put any on the press on. One dip in the bottle is enough to coat each nail generally (might need to redip for big thumbs). I have big hands and one dip is usually fine.- I apply the press-on starting at the base of my nail. Pushing it down from the base of the nail to the tip to squeeze out any air bubbles. I then use my thumb and the knuckle/side of my forefinger of the opposite hand to firmly hold the nail in place while the glue dries (see weird photo). Hold in place for 20 seconds or so.-Flip your finger over and swipe some glue along the underside where the the tip of your natural nail ends and the press on continues. (See photo). This will extend the life of the nail for days. It will help keep your nails from lifting and will keep moisture from seeping in under the nail and weakening the glue.- do every nail this way.- cuticle oil if you have it when you are done. If you want to.-wait at least 10 minutes before you file them to make sure the glue has had enough time to set.Soak off removal: (takes 20-30 minutes) this method protects the press on nails so that they could theoretically be reused.You will need: a bowl, dish soap, warm water, acetone, cotton pads (cuticle pusher not the sharp type, nail file, both optional)-Take a few squirts of dish soap and add it to a bowl of warm to hot water (as warm as you can stand).- Turn on a episode of your favorite show.- Soak your hands in the warm water w/soap for 10 minutes or so. make sure the nails are covered completly in water.- With your nails (or the cuticle pusher) push/ gently pry around the edges of your nail to see if they are loosening. Some should be loosening. I also pinch the nails on the sides between my thumb an forefinger to see if they are loosening. I refill the warm soapy water as it has gotten cold.- Soak another 10 minutes.- Some of the nails should be lifting, I will gently see if they want to pop off by pinching and lightly pulling on them. I place the edge of my thumb nail under the loose nail and give it a gentle flick. If you can't flick them off with a gentle flick then soak them for longer. You want them pretty much falling off. you may want to refresh your soapy water. Definitly soak for longer if they are not practically popping off.- Once all the nails have popped off there will be a little lingering glue. You can file it lightly with a nail file and then remove it with acetone. Or skip the filing and just remove the residue with acetone. This glue wont just rub off. I saturate a cotton pad and hold it on the nail for 30 seconds and then try to wipe away the glue residue.Acentone Soak Removal: (note, I don't reuse my nails. I buy them for under $1 a set. This method will melt them)You will need: plastic gloves, acetone nail polish remover, cotton pads, rubber bands or hair ties.- remove all hand and wrist jewelry- cut 5 cotton pads in half and place them into the finger tips of the gloves.- rubber bands around your writs.- pour a cap full of acetone in each finger (I just guess).- put your hands in the gloves, put the rubber bands over the edges of the gloves on your wrist to seal it tight.- sit finger tips down for 20 minutes while the nails and glue melt. I will occasionally pinch and twist the tips with the cotton pads to help remove the nails.- once the nails have dissolved I remove the gloves. Wipe my nails down with fresh acetone soaked cotton pads to remove any residue.

LISTEN UP. Ive been doing gel x for a while and I wanted to try this glue out bc I was in a rush to do my nails and not wanting to do gel x. Felt lazy lol. YALL this GLUE did its job and beyond. Nails lasted 15 days. Both on my hands and on my toes!! I did toe press ons too.However i did feel it burn a bit when i put it under the UV light bc i did use gel polish.Those that say the glue isnt lasting, youre not doing the prepping for one AND probably not using enough glue. Prep the nail, dehydrate the nail, before applying glue on the nail, with a nail drill i file the inside of the extension a bit to create texture so that itll hold, then apply glue on the extension and leave a good amount at the bottom of the extension so that when you apply it on your nail the glue will expand over your nail and secure it. Trust. If youre confused look up how to apply gel x nails- do that process but without the uv light.Edit:If youre also having issues with it not sticking could be something youre using thats breaking down the glue faster. I use body oil/face double cleansing oil and I wear gloves with that. I was noticing that my nail would come off and it was the oil I use (the same oil removes my lash glue) - dont get your nails wet after applying the glue for 12-24 hours. Let it set in.

Let me start by saying that I am so grateful for reading the reviews on this nail glue. I’ve been doing my own nails for many many years and finding a good nail glue has always been a challenge. I had found another nail glue that I thought was great so I wasn’t even going to try anything else until I saw how expensive this is and figured it’s gotta be good. It happened to be on sale and I was pleasantly surprised. In fact, I’m still amazed at how long my nails last. Even 3 weeks later when I want to change my fake nails I can’t get them all off! I also noticed that when I do take the nails off, I don’t have as much damage to my real nails like I did with other nail glues. The quality of the formula is out of this world. Plus, you don’t need to use too much so even though it’s pricey, it lasts you a while.

Easy application, went on smoothly. I love that its an easy application like putting on nail polish. Goes on so nicely. The press on nails stayed on and looked beautiful. They did pop off a few days later ,but that was my prep and not the nail glue. I like this product and will buy again.

If you want to never be able to get your glue on nails off then this is the glue for you. If you want to have your nail bed taken off when you catch your nail on something then this is the glue for you. Really though, this is the best nail glue I have ever purchased before. It is easy to use with the brush applicator. All you have to do is paint your nail like you would with nail polish, I like to put glue on the nail also, and then stick the nail on. It is so simple and lasts so long. I much cheaper alternative then going to over priced nail salons.
