Love Your Set Longer: The Ultimate Imara Gel Press On Care Guide

Your Imara Gel Press On Nails deserve more than a one-week moment. With the right application, care, and removal techniques, your favourite sets can stay flawless for two or more weeks and be reused for another wear.

Whether you’re new to Imara Gel Press On Nails or a seasoned lover, these simple tips will help you get the most out of every set while keeping your manicure looking fresh from application to removal.

Why Nail Care Matters

A long-lasting manicure doesn’t happen by chance. Proper care helps keep your Imara Gel Press On Nails secure, maintains their look and finish, and makes it easier to reuse your favourite sets.

A little extra attention goes a long way when it comes to keeping your nails looking fresh, neat and salon-quality for longer.

Start With Proper Nail Prep

The secret to a long-lasting set starts before your Imara Gel Press On Nails even goes on.

Begin by removing any old polish and washing your hands thoroughly. Gently push back your cuticles, then lightly file and buff the surface of your natural nails to create a clean, textured surface for better adhesion.

Finish by wiping each nail with an alcohol pad to remove any oils, dust or particles. Skipping proper nail prep is one of the most common reasons Imara Gel Press On Nails lift prematurely.

Choose the Right Nail Size

A perfect fit makes all the difference.

Each Imara Gel Press On Nails set comes with 32 nails in 16 sizes, giving you plenty of options to find your best fit. Your Imara Gel Press On Nails should sit comfortably on your natural nails without touching the surrounding skin.

If you’re between sizes, choose the slightly larger nail and gently file the sides until you get a more customised fit. The right size creates a seamless look and helps improve wear time.

Apply With the Right Amount of Glue or Sticky Tabs

Whether you prefer glue or sticky tabs, the key is getting the application right.

For glue, apply a small amount to both your natural nail and the Imara Gel Press On Nail. Align the nail with your natural nail at a 45-degree angle, then press and hold firmly for 30–60 seconds.

Using sticky tabs? Choose the size that best matches your natural nail, apply it securely, then press the Imara Gel Press On Nail firmly into place.

For the best wear, avoid exposing your nails to water for at least one hour after application.

Protect Your Set Daily

Small habits can make a big difference.

Avoid using your nails as tools and be mindful when opening cans, boxes or packages. If you’re washing dishes or cleaning, wear gloves to help protect your Imara Gel Press On Nails from prolonged exposure to water and cleaning products.

The gentler you are with your nails, the longer your manicure can stay looking fresh.

Keep Your Cuticles Moisturised

Healthy, hydrated cuticles can instantly elevate the look of any manicure.

Apply our Imara Nourishing Cuticle Oil regularly to keep the skin around your nails moisturised and looking healthy. It’s a simple addition to your nail care routine that helps your Imara Gel Press On Nails maintain that fresh, salon-quality finish throughout wear.
