Crazy cat lady who loves afternoon tea, kawaii Japanese fashion, and all things Sanrio.

We love having pretty digits, but gelish manicures don’t exactly come cheap - especially if you’re after elaborate designs. DIY-ing with your own nail polish at home? Ain’t nobody got time for that.

That’s where the newest nail trend, press-on nails, comes in. These fuss-free, stick-on nail extensions mimic the appearance of gelish, without the painstaking application process and cost. In fact, you can easily apply them for yourself in mere minutes, and with proper care, they can be reused multiple times.

Read on to find out where to get press-on nails in Singapore from just $10!
