Behind the Scenes of My Nail Art Journey
Ever wonder how your favorite nail designs come to life? Take a peek at what happens behind the scenes at naiLIT—from sourcing unique supplies in China to the hand-painting process.
While you chill, I'm on the hunt. This video shows me roaming the markets in China, testing and sourcing the absolute best nail goodies to use for your custom sets.
About Behind The Scenes
Most of the magic happens before I even touch a nail brush. When I’m traveling to source supplies, I’m not just picking out colors—I’m testing the durability, pigmentation, and ease of application of every chrome powder, cat-eye polish, and gel I bring back to the studio in Santacruz.
More Than Just a Mani
People often ask how I get such consistent quality in my hand-painted sets. The secret isn't just in the painting—it’s in the sourcing. I travel specifically to hunt down tools and pigments that you won't find at standard local supply stores. When I’m in the market, I’m looking for high-quality, lightweight soft gel tips that actually flex with your natural nail, and magnetic polishes that have that deep, mesmerizing shift.
The Process at naiLIT®
Once I’m back in Mumbai, the real fun begins. Whether I'm working on a custom, made-to-measure hand-painted art set or prepping my universal ready-to-wear collections, every step is deliberate:
- Precision Prep: Each set of nails is buffed and wiped down for maximum adhesion longevity.
- Artistry: Whether it's intricate 3D character work or a simple French tip, I use multi-layered gel techniques to ensure the designs don't chip easily.
- Quality Control: Every set is finished with a high-gloss or matte UV-cured top coat for that professional salon feel.
Why It Matters
My goal is to make professional, high-end nail art accessible without you having to sit for hours in a salon. By focusing on premium materials and providing a full application kit with every order, I make sure you get a salon-quality result right at home. From the initial hunt in international markets to the final packaging in my signature naiLIT® box, my focus is always on giving you nails that match your vibe.
