Our Story
Born in Dubai. Painted with love.
Who we are
Le Papillons is a handcrafted press-on nail brand based in Dubai, UAE. Every single set is individually hand-painted from scratch after each order — using professional gel polishes and fine nail art techniques.
The name Le Papillons — French for "the butterflies" — reflects the transformation that comes with a fresh set of nails. Something small that changes how you feel entirely.
We believe press-on nails can be as beautiful as the best gel manicure — and far more convenient. No appointments. No harsh chemicals. No waiting.
Our promise to you
Every nail is painted by hand — each set carries its own unique character. That's not a flaw, it's the point.
We use professional-grade gel polishes and take our time. We'd rather paint 10 perfect sets than rush 100 ordinary ones.
Reusable up to 20 times, sized to fit properly, built to last through Dubai's heat and long days.
How every set is made
Every Le Papillons set goes through a careful process before it reaches your door:
Choose your design and size. We confirm within a few hours and begin prep.
Each nail individually painted with professional gel polish. This takes 2–3 days.
Every set inspected before packaging. If anything isn't perfect, we repaint it.
Beautifully packaged, shipped across UAE. 3–5 working days from order to door.
Reusable & sustainable
Unlike a gel manicure that chips every 2–3 weeks, Le Papillons press-on sets can be gently removed, stored, and reused up to 20 times with proper care. One set can last you months.
We package every set in reusable boxes and use minimal plastic wherever possible. Our sets are applied with gentle glue tabs that cause zero damage when removed correctly.

- 10 hand-painted nails in your chosen design
