Artist's Launch Sale
This month's drop
Muse of the month
Pre-order closes on the 30th
One design, painted in one batch of 25, $90 flat. It goes up before the 30th so you can pre-order before the batch is painted.
23 of 25 sets left this month
Painted in one batch, so the month closes when the batch is full.
How it works
From your screen to your hands in three steps
Every set is painted after you order, to your measurements. Here is the whole of it.
Step 1. Pick your design
Seventy hand painted designs, or this month's Muse. Every one comes in every shape and length at no extra cost.
Step 2. Pick your shape, length, size and skin tone
Five shapes, five lengths, three nail bed widths or your own millimeters, and the fit guide gets you there in three taps. Tap your skin tone and every color is calibrated to it before painting.
Step 3. We paint it, you wear it
Painted to order in New Jersey. One set ships in 7 days, two or more within 14, with Nailtite glue by GN in the box. Wear each set 4 to 5 times.
The GN difference
Three ways to get your nails done. One of them protects them.
Press-ons off a rack, a set hand painted by Gigi, or acrylics at the salon. Here is what each one does to your hands and your money.
- Hand painted and sculpted in New Jersey, one set at a time
- Every design comes in every shape and length at no extra cost
- Comes off at home in minutes. No drill, no acetone.
Three approaches. Only one of them hands your nail back the way it was.

The woman behind it
Meet Gigi
Very few make reusable nail extensions that are artful and match your skin tone. I do.
Every GN set is painted by Gigi in her New Jersey atelier, hundreds of sets in, from everyday wear to the runway. She trained at New York Fashion Week, and she is the one who reads your notes and answers your questions. She is also the founder of The Creative Nail Hub, New Jersey's only sip and paint press on and nail art workshop.

Before you order
Your questions, answered
The six we answer most. The full list lives on the FAQ page.
How do I find my size?
Pick your size from the size chart on any set page, or take the three tap quiz and it picks for you. Between sizes? Send us your millimeters and we cut the set to them at no extra cost. Every set is covered by the GN fit promise.

Returns, refunds and cancellations: read our policy.
How long does an order take?
One set ships 7 days after we have your sizes. Two or more sets take longer, and we aim to finish them within 14 days. Rush is available on the set page.
