I started as an editorial/campaign nail artist in 2011 in NYC, a bit lost and unsure of the future. If you would have told me then that 12 years later I would be featured in @wsj for my work, I wouldn’t have believed it. There is so much dedication, hard work, tears, and doubt in the process, but it all becomes worth it for moments like this. ✨ Special thanks to @fifival @wsj

Thank you for the honor @britishvogue @hannycoates

Posting a few designs I’ve done in the past that would be fun and festive for the 4th of July. Some of these designs are 5+ years old. Which one is your favorite? Chain rings @doublemossjewelry

Butter Yellow Nails with DIY CHANEL nail charm: 1. Apply 2 coats of CHANEL Le VERNIS in Ovni 2. Apply 1 coat of CHANEL Le Gel Top Coat 3. Using sculpting gel use the top of a Chanel nail polish bottle as your guide to form the CHANEL C’s once you are satisfied with the final look cure. 4. Apply another coat of Chanel Le Gel Top Coat on your nails to act as adhesive for your charm, and place charm on nail. 5. Paint 1/2 of the charm with CHANEL Le Vernis LE DIABLE EN CHANEL. 6. Paint the other 1/2 of the charm with CHANEL Le Vernis INSOMNIAQUE. 7. Apply CHANEL Le Gel Top Coat to Charm to smooth and protect. @welovecoco #welovecoco

These are my 2 tips when using any chrome powder: 1. For a more subtle look use a clear base instead of a black, it will look more delicate. 2. To get rid of the extra powder around your nails use a soft toothbrush and soap to get rid of any powder in those hard to reach areas.

Felt like painting a duck on my nail 🦆Jelly blue gel base with hand painted duck using @doublemoss_arte brushes and a mix of regular polish. I like the way the contrast of gel base with regular polish art on top looks.

I realized I never posted a close up of the hand painted and sculpted cig 🚬 I made in April. If you would like to see a tutorial comment a 🚬

Juicy red nails 🍉 Sheer polishes are on the rise and can be tricky if you have longer nails. I like to add a mini opaque French to the free edge to help give it a more finished look. Especially with sheer yellow, orange or green colors.
