Today we’d like to introduce you to Angelina Reyes.
Angelina, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
We create high quality press-on nail designs that are a healthier alternative to acrylic nails and can be applied in as little as 5 minutes. Say toodles to your salon and those outrageous prices and welcome to the luxurious life of press on nails! All sets come with at least 14 nails to ensure a proper fit and customization! What else is included, you ask? Well, we also provide our top of the line nail glue, nail files and a cuticle stick if you want to get fancy! Nails by Reyyya started with one goal in mind, to bring salon quality nails to every nail lover at an affordable price!
The journey began in 2019, when I visited my local nail salon for the third time in one month. I was obsessed with constantly changing my nail designs and styles. But, I quickly learned that consistently taking off and putting on acrylic nails was severely damaging to my natural nail health. So, I was faced with a decision to make. Either go nail less for months or find a healthier alternative, aka PRESS-ON NAILS.
After scavenging through the beauty aisles of several department stores I couldn’t find the exact shape or design of press-on nails that I wanted to try so I decided to make my own! Fast forward a few months and Nails By Reyya was born! Our mission is to make you feel fierce, fiery and fabulous at an affordable price! Nails by reyyya is the healthier, convenient and dependable alternative to acrylic nails!
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
No, the process has definitely not been a smooth road! Nails by Reyyya started as a one man band. Therefore I was handling EVERYTHING from making every set, handling the inventory, marketing, shipping and branding all by myself. It was SO much on my plate and I have a toddler so I was and still am stretched pretty thin.
Please tell us about your company.
Nails by Reyyya is a high quality press on nail company. We specialize in custom, hand painted press on nails and nail supplies! Every set is made with high quality polishes, care and precision. As a company, we are most proud of the reactions/reviews we get from our customers. We make our customers feel beautiful at an affordable price. So many people have reached out to me and just thanked me for their sets and told me my business mindset inspired them. That is and has always been my personal and professional goal to make people feel confident and to inspire!
What sets N.B.R. apart is, well first, N.B.R. is owned and operated by a mother/daughter duo. I brought my mom, who has been doing nails for over 20 years, on to the team as my partner and lead designer. We ask our audience what they want from us, and we deliver on their needs. We aren’t in this business for the money. We are striving to evoke confidence among women/men and to inspire people to chase their dreams, like my mom and I are!
Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
My favorite childhood memory would be Christmas time. My mom ALWAYS made sure my two siblings and I had an amazing Christmas. She was a single mother that worked A LOT of hours to take care of us, so we didn’t have everything we wanted, but we had everything we needed, and my mom made sure to make Christmas extra special for us.
I can see her now, sitting on the couch in her robe, drinking a cup of coffee watching us unwrap our gifts with a huge smile on her face! My mom is the best! I love that woman.
