Why Lovful Press On Nails Stole the Spotlight at the Mike Tyson Foundation Gala

There are galas, and then there are galas that change lives. This summer, Lovful had the honor of joining the Mike Tyson Foundation & We 2 Matter Gala — a two-day celebration of strength, resilience, and beauty with a purpose.

Under twinkling lights and heartfelt speeches, we weren’t just showcasing nails. We were celebrating women, community, and the confidence that comes when beauty becomes empowerment.

A Celebration Bigger Than Beauty

Why the Gala Matters

The Mike Tyson Foundation continues to invest in youth fitness and education, while We 2 Matter focuses on helping formerly incarcerated women rebuild their lives. Together, they create opportunities for strength and second chances.

Lovful’s Role in Supporting Women Through Beauty

As part of our contribution, Lovful donated 100 premium press on nail sets and 100 packs of jelly glue, valued at $5,000. These gifts were included in the Gala’s luxury gift bags, placed alongside brands like Pixi Beauty, Von Dutch, Pepsi, and Beyond Meat.

For us, this was more than a donation — it was an affirmation that beauty can restore confidence, inspire self-worth, and empower women to step into a brighter future.

Press On Nails for Real Life (Not Just the Red Carpet)

With the right prep, you’ll get a manicure that looks salon-fresh but feels totally doable at home.

Glue vs Tabs: The Eternal Debate

Press On Nails with Glue for Long Wear (7–10 Days)

Ideal for weddings, events, or a busy week. With proper prep and a thin glue layer on both surfaces, you’ll enjoy secure, salon-level hold.

Tabs for Quick Style Changes (1–3 Days)

Best for short-term events or if you love switching styles often. They’re quick to apply and remove, with minimal commitment.

Tips for On-the-Go Touch Ups

Carry a mini file and spare tabs or glue in your bag so you’re always prepared for quick fixes.

Acrylic Nails vs Gel Nails vs Press On Nails

Acrylic Nails – Strong but High Maintenance

Customizable and durable, but they require professional application, regular fills, and a long removal process.

Gel Nails – Glossy Finish with Salon Upkeep

Flexible and vibrant, but they need UV curing and professional soak-off removal.

Press On Nails – Flexible, Affordable, and Reusable

No drills, no UV lamps, no long appointments. Press ons deliver bold designs at a fraction of the cost — with the added bonus of reusability.

How to Nail the Perfect Application

1. Wash your hands, push back cuticles, buff lightly, and dehydrate the nail plate.
2. Match each tip to your natural nail.
3. Apply a thin layer of glue (or tab) to both surfaces and hold for 20–30 seconds.
4. Avoid water for the first hour. Day two? A little cuticle oil adds the perfect finish.

The Easiest Break-Up Ever: Removal

Unlike acrylics, press ons don’t need a salon appointment to say goodbye.

• Soak in warm, soapy water or slip cuticle oil under the edges.
• Wiggle gently until the nail lifts (never force it).
• Clean off glue, pop them in a storage case, and reuse.
