How to Apply Elegant Touch False Nails

Applying Elegant Touch false nails is simple and gets faster each time you apply them. There are two options for applying Elegant Touch false nails: with adhesive tabs or with false nail glue.

Both options will help you to achieve stunning false nails. In the next two sections, we cover the full process of applying Elegant Touch nails with adhesive tabs and the process for using nail glue. Once you have read what each application method involves, you will be able to decide which nail application method is right for you.

How to Apply Elegant Touch Nails With Adhesive Tabs

When most people think about applying false nails, they think about nail glue, but there is another option. Adhesive tabs, though not quite as popular as false nail glue, are an effective and alternative way of securing Elegant Touch nails.

You might have heard of ‘press on’ nails and that’s exactly what adhesive tabs do; they allow you to quickly press on and stick false nails to your own nails. So, how do they work?

Before you apply Elegant Touch nails with adhesive tabs, you need to prepare your nails properly. Otherwise, the adhesive will stick to any dirt or debris left on the nail, rather the nail itself. You should clean the nail, remove any oil and dirt, file them down and ensure they are completely dry. Once you have done this, it’s time to prepare the false nail.

Easy-to-use adhesive tabs

Whereas false nail glue can be messy, adhesive tabs are the complete opposite. They are simply double-sided stickers; one side sticks to the false nail, and the other side sticks to your nail.

The first thing you should do is select the correct size adhesive tab, as there are a number of different options. Choose the tab that matches the size of the nail, as this will ensure there is no overhang.

You can then peel it from the pack and stick it to your natural nail bed. It’s important to make sure it’s centred and stuck correctly, otherwise, you might find that the false nail is not completely secure.

Easier than nail glue

Once the adhesive tab is stuck to your nail, remove the top lining. This will reveal another sticky side, which is what the false nail sticks to. Line the false nail up and press down for around 20 or 30 seconds, giving the adhesive tab the time and pressure needed to stick properly. Once you have done this to all of your nails, you are good to go.

There is no denying that applying Elegant Touch nails with adhesive tabs is easier than using nail glue, and it's certainly not as messy. However, false nails applied using adhesive tabs do not last as long. You can expect them to last for up to 48 hours, which is ideal if you want false nails for a specific event or a special weekend.

How to Apply Elegant Touch Nails With False Nail Glue

The most popular way to Elegant Touch nails is with false nail glue. This is a secure, strong and long-lasting way to bond false nails to your own nails. However, knowing how to apply Elegant Touch nails with false nail glue is key. Otherwise, you run the risk of them falling off within a day or two.

When you are in the market for false nail glue, make sure to buy a high-quality and well-reviewed product. There are a lot of glue options out there, and some do perform better than others.

This is why it’s a good idea to read reviews and ask for recommendations, as this will highlight how well others have found it to work. If you opt for a ‘cheap and cheerful’ false nail glue, you might find that it doesn’t work as well as you would like.

How long does it take to apply nails with nail glue?

Applying Elegant Touch nails with false nail glue only takes a minute or two, so it’s far from being a time consuming or inconvenient task. Once you have prepared your natural nail, put a few drops of nail glue onto the false nail and a few drops onto your own nail.

Then place the false nail in the intended position and press down, holding for around 30 seconds. One of the biggest mistakes people make when applying Elegant Touch nails is not pressing and holding for 30 seconds, assuming a second or two to be long enough. This isn’t the case and holding it for longer actually gives the glue a better chance to bond securely.

Importance of using the right amount of nail glue

It’s a common misconception that it's a case of ‘more the merrier’ with nail glue but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Though the false nail won’t stick properly if you don’t use enough glue, too much glue could also prevent it from staying in place. If you use too much glue, the false nail is likely to move around and this makes bonding together difficult.

Knowing how much glue to use is one of the only tricky bits of applying false nails, and it’s a case of trial and error. Once you have applied a few false nails, you will get a feel for how much glue is required.

How Long Do Elegant Touch Nails Last?

There is no right or wrong answer in regards to how long Elegant Touch false nails last, as it can vary from person to person. If you apply Elegant Touch false nails correctly and follow the proper steps, they can last anywhere from one week to four weeks. However, if you rush the application process or you use a subpar adhesive, it’s unlikely that they will last this long.

There are also a lot of things that can cause Elegant Touch false to come off before you would ideally like them to. For example, washing up and using a lot of hand creams can loosen the glue.

This could lead to one or two of the nails coming loose or falling off. Pulling and picking at the nails can also cause them to fall off early, as can soaking them in a hot bath or catching them on something.

How to Make Elegant Touch False Nails Last Longer

Once you have found your ideal Elegant Touch false nails and you have spent money buying them, it’s time to think about how you can make them last as long as possible. There are a few tips and tricks which will help to make Elegant Touch false nails last longer, some of which are detailed below.

The key to making Elegant Touch false nails last as long as possible is to be careful with them. This doesn’t mean avoiding daily tasks and not using your hands properly, but it does mean taking care and avoiding anything that could lead to a broken nail.

One of the great things about Elegant Touch false nails is how easy they are to apply. This means, should one of your nails come loose or fall off, you can simply reapply it using nail glue or an adhesive tab.

Are Elegant Touch False Nails Easy to Remove?

If you haven’t used Elegant Touch false nails before, you are probably wondering how easy they are to remove. After all, one of the main benefits of using Elegant Touch is being able to spruce up your nails quickly and easily.

If you are already wearing Elegant Touch false nails and you want to swap them for something else, you will need to remove them. If you are already wearing Elegant Touch false nails and you want a break, or if they have grown out too much, knowing how to remove them is key. Luckily, removing Elegant Touch false nails is relatively simple and it doesn’t take much time.

A lot of people make the mistake of assuming that removing Elegant Touch false nails is time-consuming and difficult, but it really isn’t. As long as you know what you are doing - and you don’t simply try to pick them off, as this can be painful and damage your nails - you can have your natural nails back in no time at all.

  1. Cut Down The False Nails - The first thing to do when removing Elegant Touch is to cut down the false nail using a nail file, nail scissors or a nail clipper. If your false nails are long, using nail scissors or clippers is usually the quickest option.
  2. Remove the Top False Nail Layer - Next, remove the top layer of the false nails using a buffer. Do this until you have created a rough surface and removed the shine. This is done to ensure the acetone can properly soak into the false nails.
  3. Soak Nails in Acetone - Once you have buffed away the top layer, soak your nails in acetone. You can do this by pouring pure acetone into a bowl and soaking them for around five minutes. Eventually, the false nails will begin to soften and removing them becomes a lot easier.
  4. Remove Elegant Touch False Nails - Once the acetone has softened the false nails, they should begin to come away from your own nail. You can help this stage along by pushing the acrylic away from your nails using a cuticle pusher. If this is a struggle, you might need to soak the false nails in acetone again and repeat this step. Eventually, the majority of the false nail should disintegrate and come away from your natural nail.
  5. Remove Any Remaining False Nail - You might find that there are small pieces of false nail remaining after you have removed it using a cuticle pusher. If this is the case, you can buff any remaining pieces off using a nail buffer. This should be relatively easy as the acetone will have softened the acrylic.

Though it might seem as though a lot of steps go into removing Elegant Touch false nails, it’s definitely a process that gets easier the more times you do it. It’s not a process that takes a long time or a process that’s difficult, but it does require you to have the correct equipment and a good understanding of each step.

Elegant Touch regularly has brand offers, including discounted multipacks, so you can always get great looking false nails at great value.
