You don’t need a saint. You are one. Melanin Iconography is the Byzantine goddess triptych — Black women rendered sacred, in jewel tones and full gold halo, the way art history refused to paint them. For the woman who stopped waiting to be canonized and crowned her own halo. Some icons hang in cathedrals. Hers go to brunch.

You May Be Wondering...
How long do press-ons last?
With adhesive tabs: 1–3 days (great for events). With nail glue: up to 2 weeks with proper prep and application. Results vary based on nail prep, daily activities, and lifestyle.
Can I reuse my press-ons?
Yes! That's one of our favorite features. Remove gently by soaking in warm water, clean off any remaining adhesive, and they're ready to wear again. Most sets can be reused 3–5+ times with proper care.
Will they damage my natural nails?
When applied and removed correctly, press-ons are one of the least damaging nail options available. Always prep your nails properly and remove gently — never peel or force them off. Soaking in warm water is the safest removal method.
How long does shipping take?
Since every set is made-to-order, here's the breakdown:
- Processing: 1–2 business days
- Production: 3–4 business days
- Shipping: 7–10 business days
Total estimated delivery: 11–16 business days after your order is placed. You'll receive a tracking number as soon as your set ships.
