hi, I’m Desiree

The artist behind the clawz.

I’m a licensed nail & toe tech with over six years in the industry, working out of my own private suite in Riverside, California.

In the suite, I build full custom acrylic sets — French tips to full-blown 3D character art. Clawz by Smallz press-ons grew out of that same work: hand-crafted, salon-grade sets you can order from anywhere, sized to your nails, shipped to your door, and reused again and again.

Every set in the shop is made by me — painted, sculpted, sealed, and packed. When you order a custom, you’re talking directly to the person who’ll make it.

Obsidian Orchid set — almond press-ons in magenta jelly tones with hand-drawn chrome swirls, hearts and a sun motif.
Obsidian Orchid — hand-drawn chrome, no two alike

Studio & press-ons

Two ways to wear the art.

In the suite

Full custom acrylic sets, applied in person in Riverside. Design tiers run simple to maximalist ($90–$150+). Appointments and deposits are handled through the booking site.

Bonus: bought a press-on set? Professional application is available as a service too.

From the shop

The same artistry, no chair time: hand-crafted press-on sets ($65–$105), sized custom or standard small–large, shipped with a complete application kit — reusable up to 5 wears.
