Nialuxe Nails

Haven’t stopped thinking about these all week tbh 💭

My client chose the most stunning pastel pink cat eye to put over her bright orange/red base and we ended up with this dreamyyyyyy custom coral-y cat eye set 💫

Look at how long & strong those gorgeous nails are too. This client came to me after having damaged, over filed nails elsewhere but with some TLC and teamwork, her nails are back to their healthy, STUNNING selves!

Ibiza nails, but make them YOURS 🌴⭐️

My client had a few inspo sets she loved but couldn’t find THEEEE one… so we took her favourite elements from each and made a set that felt much more her … pastel stripes, blooming gel, starfish, dots & allllllll the summer vibes 🌈

Honestly obsessed with how these turned out 🥹

❗️A little reminder that your nails should fit into your lifestyle, not someone else’s ❗️

You’ll see some of these clients returned after 2 weeks, some after 4, some after 6… and that’s literally the point. There isn’t a magic number of weeks that makes a manicure “better”. The right maintenance schedule depends on your natural nails, your routine, your lifestyle and what your nails need.

A prescriptive approach means choosing the right products, structure and aftercare for you, rather than chasing the longest possible wear time.

Beautiful nails aren’t just about how long they last. They’re about having a manicure that works for your life 🥰 If you’re looking for a nail tech who takes a personalised approach, I’d love to help x
