MY MUSE Nail Guide

Press-On Nails vs. Gel and Acrylic Nails

Press-ons are a convenient alternative when you want nail art without a salon appointment or a long removal process.

Press-on nails

Press-ons are ready-made, fast to apply, and available in detailed designs. MY MUSE sets are handmade, custom-sized after checkout, and include application supplies.

Gel manicures

Gel polish is painted onto the natural nail and cured under a lamp. It can be a good choice for a simple color, but it requires salon or lamp equipment.

Acrylic nails

Acrylic extensions are built over the nail in a salon and can create dramatic length. They usually require more time and professional removal than press-ons.
