Press-ons made for beginners, by a busy mum who’s been there.

Hi, I’m Gem — the founder of Snap Nails.
If you’ve ever wanted nice nails but felt salons were too time-consuming, messy, or just… intimidating, you’re exactly who I made Snap Nails for.
I first fell in love with nails as a teen sneaking polish on school holidays — and completely ruined my nails with salon sets later on. When I finally rediscovered press-ons, I thought I’d found the answer… until they kept popping off before the night was over.
So, I decided to create my own. Snap Nails are salon-quality gel press-ons that actually stay on, look incredible, and don’t require a single drop of experience. Whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth, you’ll feel confident from the first “snap.”
Each set is lovingly designed in Australia and tested by real hands (mine included — usually between naps, laundry, coffee runs, and walks with my late pup 🐾).
Snap Nails are for the beginners, the busy ones, and anyone who deserves a little polish without the pressure.
