MEET WINNIE
A letter of yourself
For more than 20 years, music was the language through which I taught precision, patience and expression. Alongside teaching, I always felt drawn to colour, composition and the quiet beauty of detail.
That curiosity led me to nail artistry. I trained in Japanese nail precision, completed Japanese certifications and discovered a discipline where technique and creativity meet in the smallest details.
Over the past four years, my clientele has grown mainly through personal recommendations. I work with private premium clients, collaborate with well-known hair stylists and have contributed as a manicurist to Harper's Bazaar editorial work.
What began as a new creative path became a practice built on trust, refinement and consistency — a place where every appointment is treated with the same care as a bespoke piece of art.
Nails are not just about beauty.
They are a form of art, a reflection of who we are.
Beauty begins the moment
you decide
to be yourself.
I started Dearest Me because I wanted to share my love for nail wellness, especially with seniors. While teaching music to seniors, I witnessed the beauty of their true friendships and their grace in life.
I asked myself : how can I help them feel good, confident and cared for ?
That's how Dearest Me was born.
