Problem spotting
We asked whether a pen-shaped tool could make applying your own nail polish feel easier.
About EmberNails
A five-person team with one small product idea.
EmberNails is a Swiss association (Verein), started as a school project by five people. We are exploring a pen-shaped applicator to make using your own nail polish easier whenever you want to paint your nails.
Our Story
Why we chose a nail polish pen
Our starting question was simple: could a pen-shaped tool make nail polish easier to apply? We want it to be useful for painting all your nails, not only for small corrections.
The pen is planned as an empty applicator for your own polish. We still need to test its design, how it is filled and cleaned, and which polishes work with it.
The Team
Five people, different jobs
Product shape
We are exploring an empty applicator pen, rather than selling polish inside a pen.
Everyday use
The goal is easier application anytime, from full manicures to small designs.
EmberNails
We chose a warm, memorable name that still feels connected to beauty and color.
Website work
Our site explains the idea clearly and gives the product a simple place to live online.
Our Goal
Make painting your nails easier, anytime.
We are starting with one focused idea: a pen that helps you apply your own nail polish. We plan to sell the applicator, not the polish.
