liquid metal. hand sculpted. polygel. 🪞

no stickers. no foils. no shortcuts. every single drip is built by hand and shaped before it sets, one wrong move and the whole thing has to come off.

this is what polygel can actually do in the right hands. 🤍

save this for your next set. and tell me, would you ever go full chrome?

“You are something the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is something that the whole ocean is doing.”
-Alan Watts

This moment feels bigger than an award.

Year after year, I watch my life expand in ways I could never have planned. My craft evolves, my vision grows, and somehow the right people continue to find their way into my world.

What began as a career has become a community of women I genuinely love, admire and believe in. I’ve watched my clients grow, change, fall in love, build businesses, become mothers, find themselves, and somewhere between appointments, you’ve watched me grow too.

From being recognised in Wales to now receiving Outstanding Achievement, Nail Salon of the Year nationally… I’m allowing myself to really feel this one.

To every person who voted, booked, recommended me, shared my work or simply believed in me, you are woven into this journey.

And to Oceanic Awards , thank you for seeing and celebrating what we create.

I used to think abundance was something you eventually arrived at.

Now I think it’s the moment you look around and realise

I am already standing in so much of what I once asked for.

Deeply grateful. Deeply proud.
And nowhere near finished. 🤍

Speckled orchids. Polka dots. Gold pearls scattered like she couldn’t resist.

This is what happens when nail art stops taking itself so seriously, and still looks like it belongs in a museum. 🤍

Save this for the set you’ll book when you’re done playing it safe. And tell me, the orchid, the dots, or the gold?

tell me honestly… would you wear this set? 🥲

She dreams in colours the sky forgot. 🦋

Iridescent hearts. Sunburst halos. Butterflies caught mid-flight. Stardust on every finger.

Some sets belong to the earth. This one belongs to the sky. 🤍

Save this for the version of you that lives in a softer world. And tell me, nebula, butterflies, or the water?

the studio. the artist. the art. 🤍

every set starts here. in this room, with these hands, from this world i’ve built with my own two hands.

welcome to Maison de Kimia. 🤍

save this if you’ve been watching from afar. and tell me — which one made you stay?

Erm… let’s say we SLAYED. 🐚

Ammonite fossils. Abalone shells. Moss-covered forests. A passionflower catching the last of the light.

This is where the set came from, and this is where it landed. Every nail sculpted like a little piece of the earth she came from.

Some designs you copy. This one you earn. 🖤

Save this for your next set. And tell me, which reference image is the whole mood?
