Hi! I'm Kenz

My name is McKenzie and I'm the creator behind every TIPPED. by Kenz luxury press-on order!

About Me

A self-taught artist, my interest in nails began early on when I realized -- after a subpar prom manicure experience -- that salon life just wasn't for me! The waiting, the awkward small talk, the drill burn, the finished product that wasn't *quite* what I'd wanted... That's when I took to YouTube University and started to experiment on my own!

Fast-forward to college, I started taking my nails more seriously. From water marbling to the infamous "cracked" polish trends, I tried it all... setting up shop with my friends as we painted each other's nails smack dab in the middle of our university student center! 

Then came the pandemic, and my passion for nails was reinvigorated. I taught myself the basics of acrylic and gel-x before settling on my match made in manicure heaven: press-ons. The convenience, the versatility, the ease of application and the perfect shaping every time -- press-on nails gave me everything I needed... and I hope they can do the same for all of you!

From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for supporting my small, Black-woman owned business. Each purchase you make not only makes my day, it allows me to further my skills with classes and salon-quality materials to bring YOU the manicures you deserve! (OH, and it also helps to supply my dog's growing puppuccino habit... so he thanks you too!) 

Whether you choose from my pre-designed sets or make a custom request, I can't wait to get you TIPPED. by Kenz! 💛
