The Best Press-On Nails By KISS Nails
Arizona x Impress Press-On Nails
I didn't know I needed to see Arizona Iced Tea create a nail collaboration with imPRESS, but here we are! What makes it special is that you don't actually need glue to achieve the 'press-on' effect. All you have to do is peel off the backing off the nails and literally press them onto your own!
As a result, you're guaranteed to have cute watermelon-themed nails for up to a week!
KISS Gel Fantasy Sculptured Jelly Nails
Craving more fruit-flavored press-on nails that feel a little more secure? Try these cute jelly nails! They have the trendy translucent look everyone can't stop talking about and they're currently on sale for less than $5. You literally cannot beat having a cute mani that's truly kind to your wallet.
KISS Salon Acrylic French Nails
If you can't get enough of wearing French nails, add a pop of yellow to your tips with these press-on nails. They're a subtle nod to summer's sunny days, and they won't give you any weird bubbles when you're applying them.
Best Press-On Nails by Olive & June
Olive & June Star Spangled Party Press-On Nails
The best press-on nails often follow a cute theme like these star spangled ones! They're perfect for any one 4th of July parades or cookouts you'll be attending next month.
Olive & June Neon Lines Press-On Nails
No one ever needs a reason to wear neon nails, but I'm still going to make a case for Olive & June's press-on version. Though they feature pretty bright summer colors, they're not so bold that someone is going to question your fashion or beauty choices.
IMO, they're perfect for anyone who wants a pop of color that differs from a more classic French press-on nail.
Olive & June Puffy Daisy Press-On Nails
I know my girlies who are still talking about all things Barbie can't get enough of the cute, sugary pink aesthetic — so this one's for you! These are some of the best press-on nails because they're a literal combo of the colors associated with Barbie.
Best Press-On Nails By Glamnetic
Glamnetic Rio De Janeiro Press-On Nails
Not a huge fan of pink? That's fine because these press-on nails are the definition of 'Go big or go home.' They feature an eclectic green that's accentuated by gold chrome lines meant to create a nice balanced contrast.
Honestly, I can see myself wearing them on a girls trip to one of the many beach towns in Florida I'm dreaming of at the moment...
Glamnetic Wildchild Press-On Nails
This set just sparks joy when I look at them. It could be because there's literally a purple lightening bolt drawn on one of the names, or it may be the combination of pretty colors. Whatever the case, I think this is hands-down one of the press-on nails sets you should buy if you don't get anything else!
Best Press-On Nails by OPI
OPI A Me-For-All Press-On Nails
I can't promise you anything, but your own version of a pot of gold may be waiting for you once you apply these rainbow press-on nails. And by pot of gold, I mean a ton of compliments! They follow their own version of a French manicure, but with a slanted appeal.
OPI Tastes Like Strawberries Press-On Nails
Maybe I've been choosing fruity press-on nails because they're cute...maybe it's because my body is craving summer fruits! Whether that's true for you or not, these are still cute, kitschy nails that I think someone should wear at least once between now and the end of July.
Just be careful not to bite your nails because you can't stop admiring how good the strawberries look!
