Should You Buff Your Nails Before Adding Press Ons??

Introduction

As a professional nail artist and beauty expert, I often receive questions about the best practices for applying press-on nails. One of the most common queries is whether you should buff your natural nails before adding press-ons. In this blog post, I'll provide a clear and authoritative answer to this question, along with practical tips and insights to help you achieve a flawless, long-lasting manicure with Daring Lily press-on nails.

Direct Answer to the Question

The short answer is: no, you generally do not need to buff your nails before applying press-on nails. In fact, buffing your nails before adding press-ons can actually do more harm than good. The reason for this is that press-on nails are designed to adhere best to a smooth, natural nail surface. Buffing can create microscopic scratches and ridges on the nail plate, which can interfere with the adhesive bond and cause the press-ons to lift prematurely.

Instead, the recommended approach is to simply clean and degrease your natural nails before applying the press-ons. This ensures a clean, optimal surface for the adhesive to grip onto, allowing your Daring Lily press-on nails to stay securely in place for up to two weeks or more.
