Why Do Press-on Nails Cost What They Do? The True Cost of Quality

Why my press-on nails are priced as they are: Transparency on artisanal and quality work

 

In the world of press-on nails, prices can vary wildly. At Venuza Nails, I've made a choice: that of quality, craftsmanship, and transparency.

Today, I'll explain concretely how my prices are set and, most importantly, why they are fair.

Artisanal work that takes time

Every kit you order is entirely handmade, with precision and high standards.
A simple design takes me about 1.5 hours of work.
More elaborate designs with nail art can take up to 4 hours to create.

This includes:

- preparing the nail tips
- applying the colors
- designs, details, and finishing touches
- drying time and quality control

This is not an industrial product.
It's an artisanal piece, created especially for you.

High-end (and costly) materials

Quality comes at a price, and it's a conscious choice.

I only use:

- resistant and durable professional-grade nail tips
- professional gel polishes
- high-quality gels
- premium embellishments and decorations

These products are:

- more resistant
- more aesthetic
- safer for your nails
- But also much more expensive than low-end alternatives.

Added to this is an essential point:
👉 I constantly have to restock (nail tips, gels, colors, accessories, packaging).

Unlike classic single-use nail tips, our press-on nails are designed to be reusable with proper care, allowing you to maximize your investment over multiple wears ✨

💎 The new Custom Luxury Set: why is it more complete?

Our new premium format now includes:

✔ 10 custom-sized nail tips
✔ + 10 identical custom-sized replacement nail tips

In other words, you receive the equivalent of 2 complete kits perfectly suited to your sizes.

The set also includes:

  • a sizing kit sent after order confirmation
  • custom manufacturing
  • emergency nail tips in case of loss or breakage
  • better long-term durability

This format was designed to offer a more luxurious, practical, and cost-effective experience in the long run.

All Sizes Set: 30 nail tips included: a real difference

Unlike many brands that offer only 10 nail tips, my kits contain:

👉 30 nail tips (all sizes included x3)

This means:

- a perfect fit for your hand shape
- more comfort
- no more sizing errors

And yet, some brands offer similar prices with half the number of nail tips.

At Venuza Nails, you pay for more quantity and more quality.

Reusable nails = a profitable investment

My press-on nails are designed to be:

  • ✨ reusable multiple times.
    With proper application and care, you can wear them several times. Some customers even manage to use two different sizes, so they get two kits for the price of one.

Result:

- you save money in the long run
- you change your style without constantly repurchasing

👉 It's not an expense, it's a smart beauty investment.

A 100% independent business.
Behind Venuza Nails, there is no factory.
👉 There's only me.

I handle everything myself:

  • creation
    - orders
    - preparation
    - communication
    - customer service
    - website management and shipping

Each kit is the result of real human work, not automation.

Invisible (but very real) costs
When you buy a kit, you're not just paying for a product.
You're also contributing to the costs associated with a professional activity:

- 21.2% of the price goes directly to URSSAF
- management fees (bank, accounting, Shopify, etc.)
- essential subscriptions (website, tools, applications)
- packaging and shipping
- equipment renewal

These costs are essential for a business to operate legally and professionally.

Prices far from excessive

When you add up:

- working time
- cost of materials
- quantity offered
- overheads

Realize one essential thing:

👉 My prices are fair, and even very reasonable given the quality offered, because when you pay, for example, €35 for a kit,

I: I don't even get half of that amount. That's the reality of my life as an entrepreneur. And yes :)

Making a living from one's profession: a necessity, not a luxury

Venuza Nails is not a hobby.
It's my profession.

Setting fair prices simply allows me to:

- continue to create
- improve my products
- and above all… to make a living from my work

In summary

Choosing Venuza Nails means choosing:

✨ an artisanal product
✨ premium materials
✨ unique nails
✨ durable and reusable quality
✨ a passionate creator

If you were still hesitating, I hope this article has helped you understand the true value behind each kit 💅

Moi je préfère acheter et utiliser 6 ou 10 fois plutôt que de payer une blinde et jeter les ongles au bout de 3 semaines

Margorie

En tous cas c’est moins cher que chez les P.O!!!

Tristan

Les gens trouvent ça cher parce qu’ils ont pas les moyens. ils préfèrent racheter constamment des ongles de M… plutôt que d’investir dans du bon matos. C’est mon avis

Angele

Je trouve pas ça excessif perso

Urssula

Chers pas vraiment. On reçoit 2 kits de très bonne qualité et sur mesure en plus. En salon c’est deux fois plus cher et on peut garder la manucure que 1 mois grand max
