My nail journey started back in my early 20s when I began doing my own acrylics to save money. It quickly became “me time” — something I looked forward to every two weeks. That routine lasted for years, until 2019, when my autoimmune disease made acrylics too painful to continue. I needed a gentler alternative that still let me enjoy beautiful nails from home.

That’s when I found dip powder. It was easier on my hands, but I wasn’t satisfied with the available colors or textures. So, I started experimenting — mixing pigments, adding glitters, and creating shades that made me happy. My very first marble, Galway Girl, was born from that creative spark.

Then, in February 2021, I began my breast cancer journey. Crafting new dip powders became my creative outlet and helped carry me through long, uncertain days. Two months later, I launched GiGi’s — and I’ve cherished every moment since. Through surgeries, setbacks, and healing, this small business has brought me joy, purpose, and connection.

I’m beyond grateful for your support. Thank you for being a part of this journey with me — and for letting me share my sparkly world with you!
