Nialuxe Nails

🌲OUT OF OFFICE 🌲

Signing off for a lil holiday!! I was going to schedule posts but decided not to because honestly, I just want to switch off for a bit, spend some proper time with my husband & girls and enjoy being away without thinking about what I need to post next 🥹

I’ll still pop on stories now and again to share little snippets of what we’re getting up to, but I’m giving myself permission to take a proper break from the business side of things too!

Any messages, booking enquiries and admin will be picked back up when I’m back at work on 17th October.

Thank you, as always, for supporting my little business and for being here. It means so much 🫶🏼

See you soon 🥰

Your nail appointment isn’t just about the finished set… It’s about taking a little time for yourself, sitting down, switching off, and leaving feeling a bit more like you 🤎

Every Nialuxe appointment is personalised around your nails, your lifestyle and what makes you feel your best - whether that’s a simple structured manicure or a little seasonal design moment 🍂

& I’m so excited that autumn nails are officially here!

Ready for your next little self-care moment? Book via the link… I can’t wait to see you 🤎

🍂 The Autumn Transition Edit 🍂
A little collection of autumn moods, inspired by the colours, textures and little moments I’ve been loving lately.

From earthy greens and magical forests to deep burgundies, cosy bookshops and moonlit skies, there’s a little something for every kind of autumn vibe!

Every photo and every nail set featured is my own or my clients’, bringing together a few of my favourite things about this time of year.

Swipe through, find your autumn mood and tell me which one you’re choosing! 🤎



🌿 mossy greens, woodland moments & a little bit of magic 🧚

📖 espresso shades, cosy jumpers & rainy afternoon vibes ☕

🌙 dark skies, celestial details & a little sparkle 🌛

🍷 w**e tones, velvet touch & cosy evenings 🥀

🍁 golden hour, falling leaves & warm details 🍂

Which one are you? 🌿📖🌙🍷🍁

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!

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
