EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR A SATISFYING QUICKIE
Find your correct size press-on. Numbers can be found on the back of each nail indicating the top of the press-on.
Gently buff your the top of your natural nail. This creates texture and grip for the press-on.
Apply the liquid glue to the center of your natural nail. Spread evenly across your entire natural nail using the tip of the glue for full coverage.
Apply your press-on nail at a 45 degree angle pressing down firmly from cuticle to tip. Hold for 10-15 seconds to ensure proper bodning.
Hands down, the easiest way to get nailed.
Meet Get Off—the remover that pops off press-ons without damaging your natural nails. While other acetone formulas leave you dry, damaged, and dramatic, ours lifts press-on nails and dissolves glue like a pro—gently, quickly, and without the ick.
We pride ourselves on a Quickie that lasts which is why we suggest following our signature application method.
Step 1—Find your correct size press-on. Numbers can be found on the back of each nail indicating the top of the press-on. The right size press-on will cover your natural nail side to side when pressed flush. It should not cover any of your skin. Pro tip: size and lay out all of your nails prior to moving onto Step 2.
Step 2—Using the mini nail file, gently buff the top of your natural nail. This creates texture and grip for the press-on. The more texture created, the longer your press-ons will last. If you want a Quickie that doesn't last as long, skip this step or buff only the center of your natural nail.
Step 3—Apply a generous dot of liquid glue to the center of your natural nail. Spread evenly across your entire natural nail using the tip of the glue for full coverage. This technique helps prevent glue leakage. Pro tip: for semi-sheer finishes we recommend applying an extra dot of glue to the back of the press-on which helps prevent the look of air bubbles.
Step 4—Apply your press-on nail from cuticle to tip. Applying firm pressure across the entire nail hold for 10-15 seconds to ensure proper bonding. Pro tip: avoid getting your nails wet for 30 minutes after application.
Like most quickies, no two last the exactly the same.
If applied using our signature application method and Press-On Nail Glue (included in every set of Quickies), a satisfying Quickie on average lasts 1.5-2 weeks, with some lasting up to 3 weeks!
If you're looking for a shorter Quickie we recommend using our Brush On Nail Glue (2-5 days) or our One Night Stand Adhesive Tabs (1-3 days).
Yes! Unlike a salon manicure you can get multiple wears out of your Quickies. Of course, reusability will depend on how you care for your press-ons.
For maximum wears we recommend waiting until you press-ons naturally lift before removing. Once removed, gently file off any excess glue before going for a second or third round.
Each set of Quickies includes either 24 nails in 10 sizes or 30 nails in 15 sizes (refer to our size guide), 1 Press-On Nail Glue and 1 Mini Nail File.
We know size matters—each set of Quickies includes a variety of different sizes of press-on nails so that you can find your right fit.
Because everyone's nail beds are beautifully unique we recommend reviewing our Size Guide found on each product page.
Like anything, if used correctly, Quickies should not damage your natural nails!
Our signature glue is designed to dissolve over time so that the press-ons naturally loosen/lift. You should never struggle to remove our press-ons.
To make getting off even easier, use our acetone-free Get Off Press-On Nail Remover, formulated to gently support press-on nail removal without drying out or damaging your natural nails.
Please note that if you do try to forecefully remove your Quickies before they are loose damage may occur to your natural nails.
For the best quality Quickie we recommend leaving your press-ons as they are.
However, if you want to reshape or trim your press-ons, we recommend using our Cut It Out Cuticle Clippers and Rub One Out Nail file for best results.
Please note we do not offer any potential quality concern resolutions on Quickies that have been cut, filed or altered.
We want you to feel satisfied with your Quickie so we recommend following these steps and tips:
If your Quickies aren't lasting as long as you need to keep you satisfied, this is likely an application concern and not a quality one—let's fix that!
Please make sure you are carefully and closely following each step in our Get Nailed application method which on average provies a Quickie that lasts 1-2 weeks.
If you lose a nail don't panic—buff off any nail glue from the press-on nail and your natural nail. If you have oily nail beds we recommend ensuring your nails are clean, dry and well buffed. Reapply carefully following the steps from our signature application method. Pro tip: double check your press-on nail is correctly sized as nails too big or too small may pop off more easily.
To make getting off even easier, use our acetone-free Get Off Press-On Nail Remover, formulated to gently support press-on nail removal without drying out or damaging your natural nails.
Your Quickies will start to loosen over time which is the ideal time to safely remove your press-ons without any damage. A great way to test this is by pushing down on the tip of your press-on to see if the base near the cuticle naturally lifts.
For any stage five clingers soak in acetone/nail polish remover. Please note this is not the intended/desired removal process and may sacrifice the quality/reusability of the press-on nails.
Please never force your Quickies off—doing so could cause damage to your natural nails.
Just like any nails, press-ons aren't invincible. If you have a quality concern please email us at youup@getquickies.com with your order # and photos of any potential quality issues you are experiencing. Our team reserves the right to review quality concerns on a case-by-case basis.
