The Little Magic Guide
pressure nails
Everything you need to tame these little gems that rest at your fingertips
At soimea , we have a very simple philosophy:
Snap-on nails are a small, portable beauty that you can play with at your fingertips.
Like a pair of gold earrings that brightens the face in a second.
Like a lipstick applied before going out, capable of changing an entire look.
Our pressure-on nails are exactly that little bit of magic.
That's why we've designed a simple, comfortable, and quick way to put it on and take it off.
So let's go:
In just a few minutes, you can get a complete manicure.
How to install?
You will need: your Soimea box + a glass of lukewarm water
Time: 5 minutes
Step 1: Prepare your nails
If you want: cut a little, wash, dry.
Then, using the file included in the box, lightly sand the surface of the nail, and clean it with the alcohol wipe included in the package.
Step 2: Choosing the right size
Each box contains 24 false nails + 24 adhesive gels in kraft paper , all of different sizes.
Take them out, compare them to your natural nails, and find the perfect combination for each finger.
*Quick reminder:
Clearly distinguishes the front/back side of the false nail.
Especially for the short models: on the inside, the edge near the cuticle is thinner (to naturally fit the skin), while the front is a little thicker to guarantee comfort and durability on a daily basis.
Step 3: Place
Apply the adhesive gels to your natural nails, remove the film, then apply the false nail from the base , at a slight angle. Massage and press for 15–30 seconds.
And there you have it, it's done!
If you're in a hurry:
You can simply clean the nail with the alcohol wipe (Step 1 shortcut).
It will be less sturdy: so avoid forcing it with your nails — no stuck bottle caps or cans to open like superheroes 😉
If you want a stronger outfit:
Avoid water, oil or chemicals for 4 hours .
Next, we prefer to warn you: swimming pool, bath, sauna… it’s possible, but it reduces adhesion.
The most durable outfit?
Take the pose just before going to sleep .
You'll wake up with beautiful, perfectly manicured nails.
But to protect your natural nails (they need to breathe too!), even if everything is very well glued on, we recommend removing them after 7 days . Once properly removed, you can reuse them again and again.
How to remove it?
You will need: your Soimea box + a glass of warm soapy water
Time: 15 minutes
Step 1: Soften the adhesive gels… and your mood
We want your fingers to be pampered.
So put on some music, a movie, breathe — then soak your fingers in warm soapy water for 7 to 10 minutes , until the adhesive gels soften.
Step 2: Gently place
Using the cuticle stick provided, gently slide it in from the side and lift little by little.
Very gently.
If it doesn't work the first time, we try again.
The idea: always protect your natural nails.
Step 3: Clean & store
Using soapy water, gently rub to remove the residue from your nails.
Then scrape the inside of the false nails to remove what remains — you can finish with the alcohol wipe if needed.
Once dry and clean, store them in the drawer box.
They will be waiting for you for their next outing.
If you're in a hurry:
You can skip the soaking step, and pass the stick directly under the edge of the false nail.
It's not impossible .
But it can damage your natural nails a little.
And besides… why rush?
This routine is already much faster (and much cheaper!) than a salon appointment.
So let's take our time:
We put them on to radiate light.
and we take them off to pamper ourselves ♥
