I need advice as I am creating a few sets of "press on" nails as a gift for my friend who lives too far away for me to do her nails. I am using a generic but not cheap full coverage nail, shortening/shaping them and polishing with Gelish and Shellac as well as adding some glitter and decals.
She has had Acrylic Nails done by a NSS in her area thinking she was getting Gel Nails and now refuses to trust anyone but me. She wants to grow her nails and I am sending her a care package complete with tools, cuticle oil, advice etc. She is an on/off nail biter and most of her nails are pretty good right now for press on. By the time she receives my package, hopefully she will have kept her promise and not bitten any more.
She is a professional business owner in the medical field and does presentations about once a month so she uses glue on nails from the drug store that leaves a residue that she just can't remove or the glue takes layers off her nails and ruins them... leading to more picking. I will be giving her the best products and advice on EVERYTHING!!
What is the BEST adhesive either glue or tabs, to use that works well and is removable easily? I will even order from the UK if need be to get the right one (I am in CANADA). Only the best for my friend.
Thank you for your help!

I have never used full nails but I do have a fantastic CND tip glue... Would that be acceptable to use for them? I am still holding out with hopes my fellow Geeks can help me!
