Fall Vibes & Prints
My top picks I'd add to my nail kit arsenal from my two favorite brands: Kiss and Glamnetic. The packs usually come with a glue stick, 1 alcohol pad, a mini emery board, and 28-30 nails.

Glamnetic: Mandrake
Super cute and just in time for fall, but will last for about 7 days depending on your application
KISS imPRESS Press-On Nails, Medium Length, ‘Indigo Autumn’, 30 Count
Yesss. This ombre is definitely a sweet look. I'd prefer square, but the oval shape is super cute.
Glamnetic: Candy Corn
Alrighty, these are peel and press with a guarantee of up to 10 days with their improved hold. Kiss has a special place in my heart behind glamnetic

I love a matte finish! It's giving Halloween vibes for sure.

Peek-o'-Lantern Press-On Nails - Glamnetic | Ulta Beauty
Nude
Because we like to keep it cute and simple
I typically stick with the short and squoval shape. What about you? What shape and length do you like?

From their Bare but Better collection. Has a clear appearance and comes with 28 nails
KISS , Nude Lipstick, Beige, Medium Coffin, 28 Count
It's a classic for a reason-timeless!
Glamnetic Classy French
I'd say it's a slightly lighter taupe color in the package. This has a slight semi-gloss, but it was the perfect length for me. I added 1 layer of top coat for more shine. The gloss lasted a little over a week.
Glamnetic: Bare Bliss
Nail Kit Essentials
The main essentials you'll need to restock your nail kit-especially for on-the-go
My first preference will always be the nail tabs followed by their nail glue. They last for up to two week if you apply them correctly.
Adhesive Nail Tabs
My next best suggestion if you'd prefer to have the glue brush vs the nail tabs
Brush-On Nail Glue
I highly recommend trimming your cuticles to have a cleaner look
Salon Effects Nip 'em Neat Cuticle Nippers, Control Grip
Here are the most frequent tools I use to prep my nails before applying press-on nails or using polish.
Huauoo 3-Piece Stainless Steel Cuticle Nipper Kit with Full Jaw Nipper, Pusher & Remover, Silver
Essential, but not for a crazy amount of money for less pads. Make use for nail care and body care.
