The same method, written out, so you can keep it in front of you while you apply.

1 - Clean
Wash your hands, remove any polish and gently push back the cuticles.

2 - File & matte
File the length if needed, then lightly buff the nail surface so the tip grips.

3 - Degrease
Wipe each nail with the degreasing wipe and let it dry, no cream or oil afterwards.

4 - With adhesive tab
Peel the backing off the adhesive tab and press it onto the nail before applying the tip.

5 - Press
Position the tip starting from the cuticle and press firmly for 15-30 seconds.
