nails are the canvas

Fusing craftsmanship with sensory design, I collaborate with artists, brands, and visionaries to craft high-impact nail experiences that leave a lasting impression. From editorial fashion sets to elevated everyday manicures, By The Polish blurs the line between art, beauty, and self-expression.

With impeccable polish, always.
