Finding my niche...
Nail art isn't always about super neat great drawings. Those of you that know me well know that I dislike doing neat nail art especially a French mani. So much so that I barely offer it and it's not on my price list π
This type of ink nail art as well as abstract, tortie, marble, snakeprint and my ultimate OG leopard print are my absolute favourites to do. I can't wait to get stuck in with designs such as this together with my first love, BIAB.
I've spent literally hours perfecting my BIAB skills and I have undertaken so much training to provide my clients with the best possible BIAB mani that I can do.
I have a new collection of nail art inks thanks to and I can't wait to use them on you. So, hit me up with your nail inspo and keep an eye out for my latest sets that I will try to remember to actually post π β₯οΈ
This set has the new BIAB called Cutie from

Nothing beats a fresh BIAB manicure. This shade is called Teddy and by far it's my most popular BIAB shade.
What is BIAB?
BIAB, or Builder in a Bottle is a slightly thicker style gel that is used on the natural nail to enhance the nails ability to grow or increase strength in your nails.
If you'd like to start growing your nails or have a clean, fresh mani such as the above please do message me as I have openings for new clients.
Always love a tortie
Kicking off 2024 with BIAB and leopard print π
