The Maker

Meet Erika — one set at a time.

Nails By E started at a kitchen table with a brush, a bottle of polish, and a refusal to make the same set twice. Today, Erika still hand-paints every single order herself — no factory, no templates, no shortcuts, just a relaxed studio and a steady hand.

What makes each set different isn't just the art. It's the fit. Erika builds every nail to the exact measurements of your hand, so what you see in the photo is exactly what lands on your fingers.

The Process

From idea to doorstep.

01

Share your vision

Send reference photos, a mood, or let Erika design something entirely original for you — shape, length and color are all yours to choose.

02

Get sized, not guessed

Every set is built from your own measurements using our simple at-home sizing guide, so each nail fits like it was made for you — because it was.

03

Hand-painted to order

Erika paints, cures and finishes your set by hand in her studio. No templates, no mass production — one artist, one set, start to finish.

04

Delivered, ready to press

Your nails arrive finished and ready to apply with everything you need in the box. Reusable with proper care — wear them again and again.

Built For Your Hands

Sized to you, not the other way around.

Off-the-shelf press-ons force you to file down or pad out a generic shape. Nails By E works the opposite way: Erika builds every set around measurements you take at home, in minutes.

  • Printable at-home sizing guide, no store visit required
  • Each of your ten nails is measured and matched individually
  • Shape, length and curve built to your natural nail bed
  • Free resize on your first set if the fit isn’t exactly right

Kind Words

Worn by hands everywhere.

The fit was unreal — I didn’t have to file a single nail down. Erika turned a blurry inspo photo into exactly what I pictured.

Maya R.

Almond set, Chrome Reverie

I’ve ordered from three different custom nail makers and this is the only set that actually lasted two full weeks without lifting.

Priya D.

Coffin set, Terra Block

It genuinely feels like a tiny piece of art on each finger. The sizing process made it so easy to get a perfect fit from home.

Simone A.

Stiletto set, Midnight Gilded

Good To Know

Questions, answered.

After checkout, you’ll receive a printable sizing guide and short video. Using a ruler, you measure the width of each natural nail and send us the measurements. Erika hand-builds your set to those exact dimensions — no filing down a generic size to fit.
