Hi love! My name is Katie and I am the mastermind behind Race Tips!

I took two of my favorite things: fun manis and F1 to create the best of both worlds - F1 manicures!

While I was studying abroad in Milan, I fell in love with Formula 1 during a weekend trip to Nice & Monaco to celebrate my 21st birthday. I immediately noticed the huge grandstand and wondered if they were setting up for that big race, ya know, the one in Iron Man 2 and Cars 2.

Sure enough after a quick Google I found out that the "big race" was part of the F1 calendar. That night, I kept googling wanting to know more. I found the first, and at the time, only season of Drive to Survive. I stayed up all night binging (yes, the whole season) - in the morning I couldn't stop explaining my new found love to my friends. Since then, I haven't missed a race weekend. I finally saw F1 live for the first time in 2022, attending both the Canadian Grand Prix and COTA!

I am so honored to share my fun manicures with you and can't wait to continue providing more F1 and non-F1 designs.

I wholeheartedly stand by the quality of my products and have spent hours meticulously designing and finding the best manufacturers to bring you high quality products. I am always here to answer questions, share best-practices for application, and hear any great ideas you have for future designs. Please do not hesitate to reach out!

When I am not watching F1 or hand-packing orders in Brooklyn, NY - I am cheffing up in the kitchen, watching movies, hanging with friends, painting, or taking bubble baths.

I appreciate all your support and am honored to share my passion with you all!

Love, Katie
