Luv U So Matcha | Set Stories
Yes, I love matcha so much that I made a matcha nail art set. I’d been thinking about this set for months because I started making guava matcha lattes at home daily. And when I say daily, I truly mean I drank a matcha latte every single day. I didn’t just hop on the matcha…

Summer Rain | Set Stories
Summer is over, unfortunately, and I’m just getting around to posting these sunset ombre nails. But just because my favorite season has come to an end doesn’t mean we can’t carry the summer vibes into the fall. I truly loved this set and will likely re-do it next summer. For now, let’s get into the…

Tropic Glass | Re-Set Stories
What do you do when you need to create DIY press-ons but have no idea what design to do? You become your own inspo and recreate an old set! That’s exactly what I did for this glass nail art set, featuring hibiscus flowers, which is why I’ve titled this a “Re-Set Story”. Let’s get into…

Gimme Flowers | Set Stories
I’d love to be the type of person to keep fresh flowers in my home at all times, but I’m not, so I made a flower press-on nails instead! It’s summer, I’m still into bright nails, and a floral nail art design is a great way to infuse tons of color into a manicure. My…

Watermelon Sugar | Set Stories
Every time I looked down at this custom DIY press-on nail set, the tune of “Watermelon Sugar” kept looping in my mind. The funny thing is that watermelons weren’t even the main inspiration for this set, but I just couldn’t unsee it. This is a set that was inspired by some press-ons I did over…

Knicks in 5 | Set Stories
Go NY, Go NY, Go!!! I created this NY Knicks nail art set to celebrate the team’s historic NBA championship run (and win)! I actually had a whole other set planned to wear during this time, but I knew that I’d regret not rocking a blue-and-orange set if the Knicks happened to win. I’m not…

Big Mama | Set Stories
Happy belated Mother’s Day to all the mothers, moms, mommies, muvas, and mamas – this graffiti art-inspired press-on nail set is for you! My last few nail sets have been sneaker-inspired, so I wanted to try something different. These nails are colorful, bold, and very much give “‘round the way” mom, and I’m here for…

Cloudy With a Chance | Set Stories
So I’m seeing that some of the girlies want “regular” flats, not sneakers, for the summer… couldn’t be me! To prove my love for kicks, I’m bringing you another sneaker-inspired nail art set. This set is round two of my New Balance x Salehe Bembury DIY custom press-on nails – we have several more rounds…

Spot On | Set Stories
I’m back with more sneaker-inspired nail art! This time, my inspiration for these DIY custom press-on nails was the New Balance 1906 Polka Dot in colors Sea Salt & Phantom. These sneakers were an impulse buy when I copped them back in 2024, but I pull them out multiple times every season, so I’m very…

Little Rot, Big Energy | Set Stories
New Lagos = New Set. If your interests live at the intersection of thought-provoking books and bold design on some DIY press-on nails, this one is for you! Weirdly, I feel like this custom press-on nail set forced me to create it. One of my favorite authors of all time is Akwaeke Emezi. When I’m…
