AT HOME NAILS FOR EVERYONE.

HEYY Y'ALL,
I'SYDNEY!

I'm the woman behind everything here at 10:02! Having a passion for art drove me to create my brand. Welcome to my world. 

Here's our story: 

I have had a passion for nails ever since I was in the 8th grade. I started by just painting my nails in my room with only a few colors to painting designs on my nails every week! I became obsessed with always having pretty nails by the time I was fourteen and now twelve years later I've started 10:02 Nails! Everything here at 10:02 is hand-crafted by me with love right here in central North Carolina. We are dedicated to creating nail lacquers & luxury press-on nails that you'll actually love. There is something for everyone to enjoy. 

Wondering where the name came from? Well, I am a big believer in the universe ( & God) sending signs and I wanted a name that would not only be special to me but would also be unique. For a good amount of time, I couldn't think of a name that really stuck with me but every time I would look at the clock it would be 10:02, the sign I was looking for. Most people have ten fingers and ten toes and ten times two equals twenty. I also happened to be born on October 2nd (10/02)! To me, the name feels nothing short of a beautiful sign.

Starting in 2024, I decided to take 10:02 in a different direction, hand-mixed lacquers! This allows for more unique collections, colors, finishes & more. With that being said our lacquers will continue to be 10 free, vegan, non-toxic, pigmented & long lasting. What does 10-free mean? It means all of our lacquers are free of formaldehyde releaser, toluene, camphor, DBP, phthalates, triphenyl phosphate (TPP), ethyl tosylamide, xylene, synthetic fragrances, benzene, and formaldehyde resin.

​

I am super excited about this new journey & here's to more colors you'll love.

While yes we love the idea of pretty nails, we also enjoy giving back to different communities with our Give Back program. Read more about our efforts to give back to the community here. 

 

We're also about having fun and trying new things. With that Mocktail Mani was born. The idea of Mocktail Mani came along with the summer 2023 collection, Happy Hour. where mocktails were inspired by mani's and vice versa. Read more about our fun mocktails & nail inspo in our blog! Cheers!!

& as always a huge thank you to everyone who has helped me live out my dream. I am forever grateful for each and every one of you.
