It started in a nail salon
I was pregnant with my second son and simply wanted to feel beautiful and put together. So there I was in the nail salon, surrounded by chemical fumes, thinking: what is this doing to my baby?
There had to be a better way. Beautiful nails should be within reach for every woman. No fuss, no cloud of fumes and no hours in a chair.
I searched the whole world and found the answer in Korea: gel polish strips made from real gel. One try and I was hooked. I quit my job, and in August 2022 Maniac was born.
