Why Do Press On Nails Turn My Nails Green??

Introduction

As a professional nail artist and beauty expert, I understand the frustration when press-on nails cause discoloration or staining on your natural nails. This common issue can be concerning, but the good news is that there are solutions available. In this blog post, we'll dive into the reasons why press-on nails may turn your nails green and explore how Daring Lily can provide a high-quality, long-lasting alternative that avoids this problem.

Direct Answer to the Question

The main reason why press-on nails can turn your nails green is due to a chemical reaction between the nail adhesive and your natural nail. Many cheap or low-quality press-on nail kits use adhesives that contain metals, such as copper or nickel, which can interact with the proteins in your nails, causing discoloration.

This discoloration is often referred to as "green nail syndrome" and is a common issue with low-quality press-on nails. The metallic components in the adhesive can leach into your nails, leading to a greenish-blue hue that can be unsightly and difficult to remove.

Our press-on nail collections, such as the Radiant Gems Collection, the Artisan Marble Collection, and the Floral Artistry Collection, are designed with a special adhesive that is free from metals and other potentially harmful chemicals.

Our innovative adhesive technology allows for a secure and long-lasting application without the risk of discoloration or staining. Additionally, our press-on nails are handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring a salon-quality appearance that is indistinguishable from expensive professional manicures.

Tips and Best Practices

To avoid green nails when using press-on nails, here are some tips and best practices to keep in mind:

  • Choose high-quality, metal-free adhesives, like those used in Daring Lily's press-on nail collections.
  • Ensure proper nail preparation before applying the press-on nails, including cleaning and dehydrating the natural nails.
  • Follow the application instructions carefully, as improper application can also contribute to discoloration.
  • Limit the wear time of press-on nails to the recommended duration, and remove them gently to avoid damage to your natural nails.
  • Maintain good nail hygiene by keeping your nails clean and dry during wear.
