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.

I’m not the type to typically leave a review, good or bad. But when something is GREATi fee the need to let the others know. And this glue is AMAZING! My nails were on for a little over three weeks and I had to literally pop them off myself so I can get a different set on in time for the holiday. Otherwise who knows how long they would have been on. My acrylic nails from the salon never even lasted that long and I would pay 50-60 bucks each visit (every two weeks). This is a game changer AND a money saver!I did as another commenter stated and avoided water as much as possible for 24 hours. Seems like a hard task but I did my nails on my day off after my house cleaning, hair shampooing/styling and showering. And if my hands needed to be washed I would do a quick wash followed by hand sanitizing wipes.

I read a lot of reviews before buying this nail glue. It’s hands-down the easiest product to use. I paint a layer of it on my natural nail, and a tiny bead of the glue on the acrylic nail. I’m learning to use it sparingly because it works really well. It works best if you firmly press the acrylic nail to your natural nail for at least 20 to 30 seconds each so the contact will be secured..Removing the nails take a little time, so be ready with acetone, an orange stick, and a scraper tool. It’s worth the effort, though, because this glue will hold tight for nearly two weeks. I wash my hands and use hand sanitizer A LOT, and my nails do not budge. (Unbiased, unsolicited review…just genuinely trying to help.) 😊

Was very impressed at the strength of this glue. All my nails lasted an entire wedding weekend and only one popped off on day four, which I would attribute to my application of the nail and not the glue itself. It’s day 6 and I can tell some of the nails are starting to lift a bit but they are holding strong! Also, it doesn’t seem like it’s doing damage to my natural nail either which is great. Highly recommend if you need nails for an event or long weekend.

After using the glue that come in glue on nail kits from multiple brands, including but not limited to Lost Angels, Chill Tips, and Sally Hanson, I can say without a doubt that this nail glue is a serious upgrade when it comes to longevity of nails staying on, quality, and nail health. I can keep my full set of press ons up to or over a week now, when in the past I could barely get through a day or two with the given nail glue. This nail glue is simple to use, clean, sleek, effective, and SO FAST ACTING! I have to make sure I'm putting the nails on right as I do it, because it dries nearly as fast as I put the nail on. You can't get better than this when it comes to quality!

I’m a mom of a 1 year old and 2 year old so I don’t have time to go get my nails done and I barely have time to even paint them. I decided to try this nail glue with some press ons I bought. Now most reviews say not to get them wet for 12 to 24 hours but as I just said I didn’t have time to wait that long, I had one hour before I had to start making lunches and all that lol. These nails aren’t going anywhere! I’ve had them on for 3 days now and have done everything I normally do (shower, dishes, wash babies, etc.) and they aren’t budging. I even work in a kitchen and they held up. At the rate I’m going these will be on for at least the 10 days. Pretty awesome.

This was my first time using press ons nails, so I searched for a good glue to use and found this one. But I am inexperienced and didn’t check the removal, which is remove with acetone. Soaking in warm/hot water with dish soap will not work. It took me 2.5 hours of soaking and finally, prying off the nails. There are pieces of my nail stuck to the press ons, but this is not the glue’s fault!The glue worked well after 2 weeks. Obviously regular showering, hair washing, and dish washing would not loosen these. I think they could’ve stayed on for 4 weeks but the nails were too long for me so I removed them. I washed my hands a lot and used hand lotion throughout the day. Just know that you must remove with acetone!
