the high society nail artist, Dorina Lepp.

a new craze seem to appear in the circles of the hungarian young and rich. this fad is - Dorina Lepp. the teenage manicure artist have been doing the nails of the high society youngsters for one year now, and everyone seems to adore her work. she makes UV gel base artificial nails - even for toes -, gorgeous nail paints, she can correct nail injuries aesthetically and can lengthen and shape nails however one likes. i've met her in person, seen her works, and i must say - no wonder the upper class loves her.




why did you start working with nails?
i never liked my nails naturally, i've always painted it over and over for my outfit of the next day. also, my nails were always very sensitive, they broke and stuff, so once i visited my friend's mom's beauty salon and got my nails done. i liked that pretty much, but thought that it'd be a little pricey to have them done every month, so i decided to buy the tools so that i can do my own nails myself. of course i'm lucky to have creativity and talent for arts too.
first i only practiced on my mother and myself, then my friends started to notice how good my nails look and to wonder if i could do their nails too. the first few works of mine were not so perfect, but i didn't notice it then, only now as i revise them i see the problems and failures, because i improved a lot since then - i went to nail art conferences, read a lot of things about nails, like blogs and stuff, but i have never been to a nail art course or workshop, since i'm not over 18 yet.


what is UV gel based artificial nail?
it gets hard when contacts UV light, finally it's harder, than plastic, but when applying, it's a liquid-ish material, a little more volumed than shower gels. you can get unlimited designs by having these nails, like you can basically have them made of colored gels and even build stuff into the nails, such as gems, rhinestones, even tiny drawings, any kinda small design stuff. it has a lot of adventages - no broken nails, no polish chipping, it's shapable, you can pain for example red onto you french manicure, if you want something different for one night or something, 'cause nail polish can be washed off, acetone doesn't harm the nails at all.








what are the most special things you can do?
a lot of people like built-in lace in UV gel nails. rhinestones and glitters are the most popular, but i can build in feathers, tiny metallic balls, chemically produced opal (which looks totally like real opal) and even tiny, colorful real dried flowers. i can apply color altering gel nails and glow-in-the-dark nails as well - the latest invention is the "chameleon gel", which alters color when contacting light or heat.
i can apply 3D flowers, paint anything that stands out, but i will soon use acryllic paint too.
here in hungary, stiletto nails are trendy these days - it means long, pointy nails, like witches' nails. i can also make edge nails, that look like little roofs, hybrid nails, that are mixes of the stiletto and the edge nails, the square nails, which are, well, square shaped, and the almond nails, which are round.

what kind of nails do you like the most? what kinda nails do you have?
i like french manicure, it's sophisticated, but compared to what we could do to our nails these days, it's too simple.
i always try to make my nails unique, but then of course people come and they want to have my nail style on their own hands when they see it, so it doesn't stay unique for too long. i have simple, light pink, color altering, square UV gel nails with white roses on my ring fingers' nails at the moment.






what about these artificial nails on toes?
they are totally similar to hand nails, only they're thinner. shiny, long-lasting and pretty. people loved them in the summertime.






what is your price range?
i work for a fix price of 16 dollars (3000 hungarian Forints). whatever people ask for, i do it for that amount of money.
