April 2026 – The Start, Shoot, Finish Box

This month, everything was intentional. Every single product in the April 2026 Curated Club box was chosen with one goal in mind: To help you take nail photos that stop the scroll. And honestly? It worked.

Welcome to the Start, Shoot, Finish Box, our most cohesive curation yet. 📸

💅 What Was Inside the April 2026 Nail Tech Box?

🔧 Nevelé added Drill Bits for the Perfect Cuticle Prep

If you know, you know. Nevelé has yet to disappoint a single subscriber, and this month was no different. We carefully selected drill bits specifically chosen for achieving that flawless cuticle prep that makes all the difference in photos, and in real life.

What makes Nevelé extra special is how actively she engages with the community. She's not just a brand in the box, she's in the comments, in the DMs, and has even taken on some of our subscribers as brand ambassadors. She is always amazing and so accommodating for the subs. We are so grateful. 🖤

✨ Botella added The Finishing Spray Made for This Moment

This one took some love and dedication to make happen. Botella spent a lot of time liaising with us to get her finishing spray into the box, and we are so glad she did. Not only does it smell absolutely incredible, it gives the most beautiful photo finish for shoots. It was practically made for this month's theme.

But here's what really made us smile: Botella designed fresh new bottles specifically for this box. She wanted our subscribers to have enough product and that exclusive, limited-edition feel. That kind of thoughtfulness is exactly what The Curated Club is about. Thank you, Botella. 🌸

And because this spray fits so perfectly with this month's education, it's actually featured in the PDF. Speaking of which... Scroll down for more information on that!

🐱 WowBao added Cat Eye Polishes (With another little Surprise!) and their amazing Yellow

WowBao popped in this month with not one but two stunning cat eye polishes, and they tied in perfectly with the education, as we covered cat eye photography in the guide. They also put in a magnet, which to be fair, if a subscriber didn't have one, how would they test them? :)

WowBao has been incredible for our community and genuinely loves seeing their products used. So if you used yours, please tag them! They would absolutely love to see it. 🖤

They also threw in their amazing yellow, which caused quite the reaction. You'll know if you got it. 😍

🎟️ PolishPad added The Golden Tickets

Oh, the golden tickets. These caused quite the stir when one was on display at Niche (but that's a whole other blog post 😄).

PolishPad donated the most incredible prizes:

Some subscribers won 6 months free membership to her booking system, some won 3 months, some won 2 months, but absolutely no one was left with nothing. Every single golden ticket was a winner.

This was such a generous donation and it was so appreciated by everyone in the community. Thank you, PolishPad. You are a gem. 🏆

😏 Sold Out - Ner Ner

Yep. Gone. This box has officially sold out and joined the archive, never to be seen again. If you missed it, we hope this gives you a little taste of what was inside, and maybe a nudge to make sure you're subscribed before next month's drops. 👀
