Frequently Asked Questions

How do I order a custom junk case that I saw on my FYP?

Please select the phone/iPad/MacBook type that you have from the dropdown menu and add to cart. Once you add to cart, there will be a special instructions for seller box that will pop up and you can type exactly what you would like for your case. Please include specific charms you want, your name (if wanted on the case), glitter color (if wanted), etc. This helps me to fully create your case exactly the way that you want it. Feel free to send an email to pressedonbyash@gmail.com or DM on Instagram if you would like to chat or have any questions about your order!

How do these press-ons work?

Press-ons are a temporary, quicker, and less damaging way to get nail art on your own time! They are very different from getting your nails done in the salon and again, are a more temporary alternative. Press-ons are also reusable which is convenient for those who only want claws for nights out but have work again on Monday morning. Single color sets include 24 nails of all nail sizes (0-9) to pick from as well as application materials and instructions to put them on. Pre-designed, custom sets include a complimentary sizing kit for you to size your nails, and the finished set will come with 10 nails in your custom sizes. You can wear them for as long as you want, as little as you want and if one pops off or lifts, you can just glue them back on! Quick and convenient.

What are the press-ons made of?

Unlike plastic or acrylic resin, the nail tips we use are made of soft gel. This means that the tips quickly soak off in acetone. All nails are prepped and painted with high quality gel products.

How long do the press-ons last?

With nail glue, it could be between 5-7 days, or it could be up to three weeks. Some people have reported going over three weeks. There is never an exact amount of days they should/could last because it truly depends on proper preparation and application. But please remember, press-ons are made to be temporary. No set of hands or nails are the same, so the more exact you can get with sizing and prep work, the better the results.

It is recommended to remove the around the 2-3 week mark to avoid water and/or bacteria possibly getting trapped in between the nail and the press on, which can cause discoloration of your natural nail. If any lifting occurs, taking that nail off and reapplying it would help avoid this issue as well.

My nail keeps popping off, what am I doing wrong?

Very common, especially if it is your first time trying press on nails.

Make sure you are being as thorough and clean as you can with your prep work (instructions included in packaging). If you are in between sizes and you can’t decided which size fits best, choose the larger one and file to fit. If you choose the smaller one, the tip won’t cover your entire nail bed from side to side, causing the nail to pop off easily. Daily lifestyle and wear play a big part of the longevity of these press ons, so be mindful when applying the glue. The more glue, the longer and better they can stay on. Always remember file off any excess glue from the underside of the nail and your natural nail to get the best adhesion the second and third time around. We recommend investing in an electric nail file and a nail dehydrator if you think you’ll be reapplying or purchasing our press ons often!

Are these nails reusable?

They absolutely are! If you are planning to reuse them and they haven’t began lifting on their own, soak off your nails in warm, soapy water and add a couple drops of cuticle oil. Soak them and check on them periodically for lifting. Once the press on begins to lift, you can use the wooden cuticle pusher provided to help wiggle them off. This method does take longer, so be patient to avoid causing damage to you natural nail and the press on. You can keep reusing these nails until you feel they’ve reached their fullest potential, and don’t forget about filing off the residual glue.

How do I remove the nails?

If you got your best use out of these nails, you can cut them down then let them soak in acetone. Again, these are made of soft gel so they will soften up and soak off. You can scrape the leftover soft gel off with the wooden cuticle pusher. Once all removed, take your nail buffer and buff any extra nail glue left on your natural nail. Bonus tip, invest in some cuticle oil to keep your nails healthy in between sets! If you are looking for some, we offer some on our site!

How can I keep the nails clean?

Warm, soapy water. You can also use alcohol to wipe down the top off the nail. This applies also if you are reapplying and want to clean off the entire tip. This will help remove any excess oils and make them shiny again. An electric nail file also helps to clean the inside of the press on more precisely.

If I only want my exact nail sizes, what do I do?

If you don’t want any extra nails to go to waste, you can always purchase a sizing kit in your desired shape and length. Sizing kits are available in all shapes and lengths that we have. This will help narrow down the amount of press ons you get and leave you with your exact nail sizes. We will also include one extra nail in each of your nail sizes if you choose to go this route. If you’ve ordered a custom set from us before, we should have you nail sizes on file and can use them as well. Just shoot us an email after check out with which shape/length and design you ordered and inform us that you’d like your custom sizes!
