How to DIY Nails at Home: Salon-Quality Manicure with LuxeCharm
Share
Press-on nails are having a moment—and for good reason. They let you achieve a salon-quality manicure at home without the salon price tag. Welcome to LuxeCharm’s step-by-step at-home manicure tutorial where we guide you through DIY nails that look professional and last.
You know that feeling when you walk out of the nail salon with a fresh set? That glossy, clean, put-together look? Yeah—we’re bringing that home. LuxeCharm’s LuxeTips press-on nails are made to look just like a pro manicure, but without the whole appointment thing.
These aren’t like those Dis-Chem and Clicks stick-ons. They come pre-shaped, pre-polished, and ready to go right out of the box—no painting, filing, or waiting around. Just choose the style you’re into (French tips, chrome, almond—you name it), press them on, and boom. Instant DIY nails that look like you spent hours (but didn’t).
The best part? They’re not flimsy. LuxeTips are crafted with salon-quality acrylic and finished with a gel-gloss top coat that holds up. No chipping, no dullness, just pretty nails that last.
How to Do DIY Nails at Home: Step-by-Step Press-On Nail Tutorial
Getting salon-worthy nails is easier than you think. Here’s a quick guide:
- Prep. Clean and dry your natural nails. Gently push back cuticles and buff the surface for a smooth base.
- Size & Stick. Select LuxeTips that fit each nail and follow our press-on nail tutorial: peel an adhesive tab, press the LuxeTip onto your nail, and hold for 5 seconds.
- Customize. For an extra touch, apply any nail sticker or charm now (use a tiny dot of glue) and press it in place.
- Finish. If you prefer extra hold, use nail glue instead of tabs. Wipe away any excess glue, and you're ready to rock your DIY nails all week.
Prep and apply like a pro—get all the steps in our Press-On Tutorial Playbook.
That’s it—in just a few simple steps, you have a gorgeous at-home manicure. And because LuxeTips are reusable, you can remove them and reapply new ones later, trying out different colors or art designs each time.
