i created this set to start leaning into fall and truly embracing it, this is my first fall set of the year.  fall brings leaves, pumpkin spice, and moody nails. which i love so much.  the butterfly on my ring finger is an ode to the end of summer. #AugustNails2026 #fallnails #butterfly

Many people say nails are dead because the visible nail plate is made of keratin and does not contain living cells or nerves. But here’s the interesting part… The nail root and nail matrix are alive . They contain living cells that create new nail cells and help your nails grow. That’s why you don’t feel pain when cutting your nails, but applying too much pressure near the nail root or matrix area can feel uncomfortable or even painful. The part you see may not feel pain, but the foundation underneath is what keeps your nails strong 💛 Healthy nail habits include: • Keeping your nails and cuticles moisturized • Avoiding aggressive filing or picking • Protecting the nail area from unnecessary pressure or damage • Using proper prep and removal techniques Taking care of the parts you can’t see is just as important as caring for the nails you show #MelodySusie #FunNailFact #NailCare

August nails✨ A little bit of summer, a little bit of “hello autumn.” 🍂☀️ I wanted to create a set that felt like that in-between moment—holding onto the bright, fun energy of summer while sneaking in those warm, cozy fall vibes. 🤎 So… are you saying goodbye to summer or welcoming autumn? Because I can’t decide. #AugustNails2026

The brush is perfect; I loved it—thanks, MelodySusie. It really is 100% Kolinsky; it's a size 14 and excellent quality. Because it's high quality, working with the acrylic is a breeze—10 out of 10. 👌 #MelodySusie #GiveawayWinners

Summer glow 💙 I created this set to bid farewell to summer, using vibrant colors and beach-themed accents, since the client was heading off on a beach vacation. I used the 6-color ombré gel polish palette; I love this color palette—it’s perfect for creating the ombré effect. I also used the yellow gel polish B2902 #AugustNails2026 #melodysusie
