If you’re a fan of fake nails, you know how frustrating it can be when the nail glue sticks to your real nails. Not only does it look unsightly, but it can also cause damage to your natural nails. Fortunately, removing nail glue from fake nails is a simple process that you can do at home with a few household items. In this article, we’ll show you how to get nail glue off fake nails in a step-by-step guide.
Supplies You’ll Need
Before you start removing the nail glue, you’ll need to gather the necessary supplies. Here’s what you’ll need:
Nail Polish Remover
You can use any nail polish remover that contains acetone. Acetone is a powerful solvent that can dissolve the nail glue.
Cotton Balls or Pads
You’ll need cotton balls or pads to apply the nail polish remover to your nails.
Cuticle Pusher
A cuticle pusher is a tool that can help you gently remove the fake nails without damaging your natural nails.
After you remove the fake nails, you’ll need to soak your nails in warm water to soften the remaining nail glue.
Soap or Shampoo
You’ll need soap or shampoo to wash your hands after you’re done removing the fake nails.
How to Remove the Fake Nails
Now that you have all the supplies, it’s time to remove the fake nails. Follow these steps:
Step 1: Apply Nail Polish Remover
Soak a cotton ball or pad in nail polish remover and place it on your nail. Press gently and hold for 5-10 seconds.
Step 2: Remove the Fake Nails
Once the nail glue has softened, gently lift the fake nails with a cuticle pusher. If the fake nails don’t come off easily, repeat step 1 and try again.

After you’ve removed the fake nails, there will likely be some nail glue residue left on your nails. Here’s how to remove it:

Step 2: Gently Scrape the Nail Glue
After soaking, use a cuticle pusher to gently scrape the nail glue off your nails. Be careful not to scratch your natural nails.
Step 3: Repeat if Necessary
If there’s still some nail glue left on your nails, repeat steps 1 and 2 until it’s completely gone.
