Can the Gel Strips be applied to Press Ons?

Modified on Tue, 14 Oct, 2025 at 12:19 PM

We don’t recommend applying our UV Gel Strips to Soft Gel Press-Ons.

For the strips to last up to 14 days, they need a slightly roughened surface.

However, since Soft Gel Press-Ons are already sealed with a top coat—and this shouldn’t be buffed—the ideal base for proper adhesion is missing. As a result, the Gel Strips may chip or tear after a short time, so you wouldn’t get long-lasting results from either the UV Gel Strips or the Soft Gel Press-Ons.

If you want to extend your natural nails, you can easily apply the Gel Strips to our fake tips instead. 

Choose between Half Cover or Full Cover Tips and create your very own look.
