My Heart Behind AppaLuxe

The Heart Behind AppaLuxe

Hey y’all, I’m Lauren — the heart and hands behind AppaLuxe.

This business is more than just pretty nails and clay earrings — it’s a reflection of my faith, my love for nature, and a passion that’s been with me since I was a little girl.

I’ve loved nails for as long as I can remember — the colors, the creativity, the way a fresh set can make you feel a little more like yourself. Over time, that love grew into a dream: to create beauty with my hands and share it with others.

AppaLuxe was born from that dream — and a whole lot of prayer, late nights, and grace. Each piece is handmade with care and inspired by the Appalachian ridge I call home — full of natural beauty, quiet strength, and deep roots.

But the most important part of my life? My family. I’m a proud wife and mama to two incredible boys who keep me grounded, motivated, and always laughing. They’ve been my biggest supporters as I’ve stepped out in faith to build this brand.

I pray over every part of this business, trusting God to guide it in His time and His way. My hope is that AppaLuxe brings you more than just a pretty accessory — that it makes you feel confident, creative, and reminded that beauty can be simple, soulful, and handmade with love.

Thanks for being here — it truly means the world. 💛
