Iwi Nails Palaka Collection Ula

Semi-Cured Gel Nail Strips ʻAuhea wale ʻoe te wahine holo lio, pua nani o Hawaiʻi lā?Though palaka has roots in the colonial plantation history of Hawaiʻi, our people have used it to build our local identity and style. Now it's a classic mainstay of style & fashion in Hawaiʻi. Aloha i ka Hawaiian Cowboy!This palaka set, ʻUla, captures the reds and scarlets that are sacred and royal colors in Hawaiʻi. It is the color of our aliʻi and our koko. Get a quick and long lasting ʻāina-ful manicure with these gel nail strips. Unlike typical nail strips, you cure these after application for a manicure that lasts 3-4 weeks when applied correctly. We do our best to photograph the nail strips to capture the true color, but color online may vary slightly from actual color. Nonetheless, the best representation of the nail colors are the photos of the actual strips on our site (sticker on the box is not an accurate color representation). To get the best idea of the true color, focus on the photos of the actual strips. Mahalo!
