Gathering Your Arsenal: Essential Tools and Types of Artificial Nails

To embark on your journey to becoming an artificial nail application expert, you'll need a few essential tools:

• Nail Glue: Good-quality nail glue is crucial for secure and long-lasting adhesion. Various options are available online in Pakistan.
• Nail File: This is for gently shaping and refining the edges of your artificial nails.
• Buffer: To smooth the surface of your natural and fake nails for a seamless blend.
• Cuticle Pusher: To gently push back your cuticles, create a clean application base.
• Alcohol Wipes: To cleanse and dehydrate your natural nails, ensuring optimal glue adhesion.

When it comes to the artificial nails themselves, you have several fantastic options at Dynamic Deals:

• Press-On Nails (Glue-On): Our extensive collection features a dazzling array of shapes (square, round, stiletto, coffin), lengths (short, medium, long), and designs to suit every style preference in Pakistan.
• Adhesive Tabs (Stick-On): For those who prefer an even quicker and less permanent solution, our adhesive tabs offer easy application and the possibility of reusability.

Choosing the right size and shape is paramount for a natural and comfortable look. Select artificial nails that closely match the width of your natural nail beds, avoiding overlap onto the skin.

Step-by-Step to Salon-Worthy Nails: The Application Process

1. Prep is Key: Begin by thoroughly cleaning your natural nails with soap and water. Gently buff the surface to remove shine. Use your cuticle pusher to carefully push back your cuticles. Finally, wipe each nail with an alcohol wipe to dehydrate the surface—this crucial step ensures the glue adheres properly.
2. Applying with Glue: Apply a small, even amount of nail glue to the back of the artificial nail. Avoid using glue directly on your natural nail. Carefully align the fake nail with your cuticle line at a slight downward angle and gently press it down firmly onto your natural nail, holding for 10-15 seconds to ensure secure adhesion. Be mindful of air bubbles; press them out as you apply.
3. Applying with Adhesive Tabs: Peel off the backing from the adhesive tab and apply it firmly to your natural nail. Then, peel off the top layer of the tab and press the false nail onto the adhesive, ensuring good contact.

Shaping and Refining: Achieving the Perfect Finish

Once the artificial nails are securely applied, use your nail file to gently shape the free edges to your desired look, whether you prefer a soft round, a chic square, or a trendy almond shape. Use a fine-grit buffer to smooth rough edges or seamlessly transition between your natural and artificial nails. Once the adhesive has thoroughly dried for personalization and longevity, you can apply your favorite nail polish and a top coat over your artificial nails.

Pro Tips for Long-Lasting Wear and Removal

• Be gentle with your hands and avoid using artificial nails to perform tasks that could stress them excessively.
• Minimize prolonged submersion in water, especially hot water, as this can weaken the adhesive.
• When removing your artificial nails, never force or pull them off, as this can damage your natural nails. Soak your fingertips in warm, soapy water for several minutes or use a specialized artificial nail remover available at beauty stores in Pakistan. Gently loosen the edges until the false nail detaches.
• Give your natural nails a break between applications to maintain their health and prevent weakening.
