Reddit mentions: The best false nail glue

I only wear fakies. My natural nails have greatly improved from using Nail Envy, but at this point I prefer the fakies and have been using them for over a year. I always use two coats of OPI Nail Envy on my natural nails, followed by a coat of ORLY Rubberized Bonder. To make them last longer, wait for the ORLY layer to dry, then gently rough it up a little with a file. For shorter lived nails, leave that layer smooth. This is the state of my natural nails right now. They are so shiny because I'd just done an oil treatment. I tend to wear each pair of fakies for upwards of two weeks, sometimes as little as just a few days. This is my favorite glue. Whether I've got a set on the whole two weeks or just a couple days, it holds up well. To remove I trim the end of the fakies, to expose the innards, soak in acetone for 5-10 min, and they dissolve right off, no damage. :) I've used nails from Amazon as well as Born Pretty Store. [These were great.] (http://www.amazon.com/2-PACK-Kiss-100-Count-ACTIVE-Coverage/dp/B007QERALK/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1394820933&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=Sally+hansen+full+coverage+oval) Easy to reduce the length with some gentle filing, easy to paint/practice on. :)

EDIT: If you prefer square, [these were good as well] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00803H7MI/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1), though not as great of a buy.

MORE EDIT: [This is my current mani] (http://i.imgur.com/oatOL8U.jpg), with [nails from Born Pretty Store] (http://www.bornprettystore.com/natural-full-acrylic-false-nail-tips-nail-p-1551.html), cut to less than half the length they were purchased at and shaped from there.

IBD Nail Glue has worked wonders for me

Dries quickly, doesn't come off with polish remover, hides well under polish, and is quite strong

I would trust these and they are so cheap, I got them on Amazon here is the link if you want to get an idea of what I bought. They are not too thick but not too thin either, just right in my opinion.

I think when it comes to lasting the night it's more a question of the glue than the nails. I bought edge glue again here is the link on Amazon. It's a strong glue, my nails don't come off but it's not so strong I can't pull them off with a little lifting under the edge of the nail. Also the pot is so small you could take it with you on an night out for any emergency repairs.

I’ve found that an almond shape last better then a square. I also use nailene ultra quick glue https://www.amazon.com/Nailene-Ultra-Quick-Nail-Glue/dp/B001KYQ7LG

I always use the double sided adhesive tabs for fake nails. I've never had a problem with them popping off yet - and they're relatively easy to remove (run your hands under hot water for a minute or two) without tearing up your natural nails or your false ones.

If it's really, really low and it would hurt to remove the nail that low, I would do some nail repair with these things:
Silk wrap

Glue

then cut it shorter so it's less likely to just rip off all the way.
