Nail Shapes
Square
Clean, modern, and effortlessly chic.
Perfect for those who love a timeless, structured look. The straight edges create a polished finish that complements both minimal and statement designs.
Almond
Elegant and elongating.
This softly tapered shape gives a feminine, couture finish, ideal for both everyday wear and glam occasions.
Coffin / Ballerina
Bold, sleek, and runway-ready.
The tapered sides and straight tip create a high-fashion silhouette that pairs beautifully with designs, cat-eyes, and chrome finishes.
Stiletto
For the fearless.
Sharp, elongated, and unapologetically striking — perfect if you love a dramatic, editorial manicure.
Lengths
Short
Practical, comfortable, and perfect for beginners.
Everyday-friendly with no fuss — ideal for work, typing, and hands-on lifestyles, while still giving you that salon-level look.
Medium
Balanced and versatile.
The most popular length — long enough to elongate the fingers, but still comfortable for daily wear.
Long
Statement-making and glamorous.
For those who love drama, detail, and longer-lasting impact. A favourite for special events, photoshoots, and bold nail art.
