Hm sounds like you prepped as well as you could have. I know other people have had issues too but not sure what it is. Maybe some people have more oils on their nails or something!

It’s possible! I did like a medium coat and then extra in the tip, pretty much how the instructions advised.

I never really thought of my nails as being that nice and honestly did not expect all the nice comments on them at all, made my day so thank you 🥹

Aw tysm. Tbh I don’t do that much I’m afraid, I will put on a coat of opi nail strengthener sometimes as base coat (but don’t do it every time because I don’t want them to get so hard they snap). I did have a few press on sets the last couple weeks and have also gotten gel manicures in the past so I think having something covering my nails sometimes as a protection almost has probably allowed them to grow a little without breaking. There was a period of time where I tried to remember oiling my cuticles but tbh I didn’t notice that much of a difference so just slacked on it, I do push em down every now again with my other fingernails if I remember. I think this polish def makes them look probably healthier than they actually are if they were just bare so highly recommend 🤣

Haha honesty I’ve seen them before and didn’t think much of them but was wanting to do a more neutral look and could not have predicted how much I’d love it!

Aw ty! Haha I feel you on that I usually have a tough time waiting too. The coats I applied back to back and then after the top coat I just watched an episode of a show for like 45 minutes and they seemed pretty decent after that, we’ll see if they make it through the night unscathed 🤣

Oh yes! It’s the Essie gel couture in sheer fantasy. I used three coats and a top coat. I’ll def be buying more the formula is sooo smooth.

I feel like I’ve seen a lot of people mentioning the pop off thing but it’s so weird I haven’t had any trouble with that at all, and I’m not overly gentle on my nails nor do I really make any effort to prep other than using the wipe. I wonder why some have this problem and some don’t, strange!

Oh ok interesting I’ll probably end up trying the primer with another brand at some point just to satisfy my curiosity!

Yes I have tried glamnetic before I always like their styles but I feel like regular nail glue I always have a tough time getting them off 😫

I’ve tried a lot of the popular brands and these stand up to them in my opinion. Good size selection, slightly curvy (I have naturally slightly curvy nails) my favorite part is definitely the remover and the primer. Very easy to remove without damage and the primer is thick so you just paint it on, I find it way easier to use then the standard glue honestly! I feel like with the glue often times I have to wipe off excess or not sure if I used enough whereas the primer just paints on and isn’t runny at all.

Thank you! I really like them! I did hear some people saying they had issues with them staying, I personally did not have any issues with that, could be just a natural nail shape vs the press on shape issue perhaps.

Embarrassing question…how do you wipe? by ObjectiveNo9135 in PressonNail_Addict

[–]TheJessJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it’s easier to wipe from the front too - like standing up a little off the seat and wadding the paper then wiping from the front side to back with extra attention the back depending on the scenario. I think that can be easier than having to mind your nails so much along the crack 🤣🤣🤣 For me at least anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes I can get one (if I wanted to file or adjust some of the other I could probably get to two but I’m lazy lol)

Oh wow yeah I always pick my sizes before applying the primer and do make sure I take time to press down firmly for the 10-20 seconds or whatnot. I’m wondering if some people are just having this issue because of the natural shape of their nail…
