A little reflection 🤍
This weekend marked another milestone in the Nialuxe journey as I watched the HBA Awards ceremony. Whilst I didn’t take home an award this year, becoming a finalist for Nail Technician of the Year in my second year as a nail tech is something I’m incredibly proud of!! 🥲

Looking back at these certificates together, I’m reminded of just how much has changed in such a short space of time… From qualifying, to building a mobile business, opening my studio, becoming HBA Approved and now being recognised amongst talented nail technicians across the industry - I’m SO proud of this journey.

Awards are a wonderful celebration, but the real reward has always been the trust my clients place in me and the space we create together. Nialuxe will always be more than nails 🫶🏼

The most stunning n**e nails 🫶🏼

🚨 You might have seen the “gel nails are being banned” posts doing the rounds recently… And I don’t blame anyone for being confused, when you see the word “banned” it sounds pretty scary! I wanted to clear up what’s actually happening because there’s a lot of panic and misinformation being shared online and I’m so sick of seeing the fear mongering headlines 🫣

Swipe through for the facts ->

At Nialuxe, I’ll always keep you updated on any changes within the industry and make sure the products I use continue to meet the standards they should. Your nails are, and always will be, safe with me 🫶🏼

Have you seen any of the gel nail ban rumours?

SO buzzing with how these turned out and so grateful for the most amazing client who lets me try all my weird & wonderful nail ideas 🕷️🕸️

Happy new Spider-man film 💙❤️🖤

Proof that summer nails don’t have to be bold to be beautiful 🫧

I’m loving soft summer tones paired with hard gel (my fav) to create the most gorgeous thin, strong and long-lasting finish 🫶🏼
