a note from our founder

I created Candy Coat from a deep love of colour, creativity, and self-expression.

It was intended as a space where everyone — from at-home enthusiasts to professional nail stylists — could experience the joy of beautiful colour in its most playful and polished form.

Our mission has always been simple: to reimagine nail care as something inspiring, sensory, and unforgettable. Every shade, every texture, and every formula is designed to capture the artistry of nails while bringing a touch of sweetness and escape to your everyday routine.

Thank you for being part of our world of colour.
