When “One Size Fits All” Is a Total Lie Let me paint you a picture. It’s 2019, I’m at a fancy salon for a gel manicure, and the technician holds up my hand like she’s examining a rare insect. “Your nail beds,” she says, with a mix of pity and fascination, “are… petite.” Honestly, I […]

The Nail-Style Connection: Why It Matters More Than You Think Okay, real talk time. I used to buy press-on nails based on what looked pretty in the package. You know the drill—see something sparkly, grab it, wear it once, then it sits in my drawer forever. Weird, I know. But then I had this moment

The Nail Capsule Concept: Why It Changed Everything for Me Okay, confession time. I used to be that person who’d buy press-on nails based purely on mood. See a cute floral design? Buy it.

Why Nude Nails Are My Forever Go-To Honestly? I have a love-hate relationship with nail trends. One minute it’s neon leopard print, the next it’s chrome everything. It’s exhausting. And expensive.
