Kiss Acrylic Nude French Nails Review
Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope you all had a Happy 4th of July with family and friends 🙂 Today, I’m back with a quick review of the Kiss Acrylic Nude French Press On Nails. I love the look and durability of acrylic nails from the salon, but my already-thin nails are absolutely destroyed afterwards ? I love press-on nails as a quick alternative that provides similar results, with far less damage to the natural nail. I picked these Nude French ones from Target to try out for my brother’s wedding.
Price: $6.99 (Buy here)
What it is: Acrylic-infused with reverse Dual-Injection technology delivers durable strength with a natural look. The easy-to-apply nails go on with a seamless cuticle line so they truly look natural, plus the subtle smile line translates to a perfect nude manicure for a modern take on the French (Buy here).
I picked up Medium to add some extra length to my nails for the special occasion, but I also saw Short and Real Short options if that is your desired look.
This kit includes 28 medium length nails, 1 nail filer, 1 cuticle pusher, and 1 nail glue. This is super convenient as you have everything you need to complete your manicure. I found it was easy to measure out the right size for each nail as there are little numbers on the back of each one.
I love the more natural look of the Nude French mani, but the sheer color showed a lot of bubbles under the nails :( However, this could be due to user error and application. If I don’t add enough glue, it causes gaps and bubbles that are visible under the nude nails. If I add too much glue, the bubbles issue is eliminated but there is glue overflowing my cuticle, causing a big sticky mess. Neither scenario appeals to me. (Buy here)
Overall Rating: I was fairly happy with the quality and performance of these Kiss Nude French Press-On Nails so I award it 7/10 stars. These Kiss Nails lasted a full 7 days on me before there was any lifting at the cuticle. Removal with acetone was also very easy after it had begun to lift. In a pinch, I would recommend these nails if you don’t have time to head to the salon or want an easy $7 French manicure that won’t cause as much damage to your nails. If you don’t care for the French Mani look or can’t stand the look of bubbles under the nails, I highly recommend trying the Kiss Press-on Nails that come in darker or more opaque shades. I’ve tried both the turquoise and silver sequined nails from their Gel Fantasy line and never encountered the issue ? (Buy here)

I love these nails! Here are some tips: Use brush on nail glue to get even coverage on both the back of the nail and your natural nail. Easy to control the glue so no overrun and no bubbles. To remove, rub olive oil on cuticles, then soak hands for about 15-20 minutes in very warm water mixed with a little dawn dish soap and olive oil. Nails will easily lift off. If they need a little coaxing just lift from side to side to get them to release. (Avoid pulling from cuticle to nail tip as this is more stressful for your natural nail.) This is far less harsh than soaking in acetone, no damage to natural nail and the Kiss nails are reusable. Keep track of which nails were on what fingers as they tend to keep the shape of the finger they were on. I have very small nail beds, RS – Real Short length fits like medium length for me. Hope this is helpful.
